Just for fun… In honor of the Royal Wedding, what would your royal wedding guest name be:
Start with either Lord or Lady
Has Meghan been married once, or twice?
This will be her second marriage.
@alwaysamom Thank you 
I would be Lady Irene Sasha of Driftwood. 
Lady Sadie Honey of Shoal Creek. Doesn’t have a ring to it!
Lady Muriel Gypsy of Dartmouth.
Lady Myrtle Cuddles of Arthur.
It would sound kind of like this:
Lady Claudia Kitty of Main.
He’s really like Princess Margaret, who was always the spare and grew up sharing most of the same experiences as the queen. Princess Margaret and Princess Anne (both I think #4 at the time of their weddings) both had large weddings with all the pomp that Harry is having and probably more. Andrew and Fergie had a big Westminster Abbey wedding even though he’d been bumped to #4 by then, and Harry was #5 until a few weeks ago. Being #5 still required him to get the Queen’s permission to marry.
I think Harry and Meghan have done their best to keep things small, or at least ‘smaller’ by picking a smaller venue, not inviting political heads of state, not inviting every single Hollywood person they’ve ever met. They even excluded the Obamas because then they would have had to invite a lot of other political people.
I think Queen Victoria was #5 or #6 in line when she was a child, but the deaths of several of her uncles moved her up quickly. William could take his whole family off to join a cult and Harry could move back into center stage.
Lady LaFon Kira of Hamlin, Loren, Olney, Humphreys, Thomas & Woodland.
Harry’s wedding is really the last hurrah for a long while. I doubt anyone will care as much when Beatrix or Eugenie get married. Yes, I’ll watch.
I had no idea she’d been married before. I’m surprised they are even having as big a wedding as they are having given that information but I suspect like here times have changed since his Harry’s father married a divorced woman in a civil ceremony. I’m not too up on the Anglophile stuff, but as someone said you can’t escape it this week!
Lady Otto Boots of Nedshire - (no one said I had to pick a grand mother) I think the “boots” makes all my names make me sound like a stripper.
Lady Josephine Dinky of Tree, lol.
I’ll play…
Lady Lavinia Scruffy of Roland!
From what I’ve read, the only ‘family’ Meghan has invited, is her mother! Not an aunt, uncle or cousin on ether side. Her paternal uncle, Michael Markle, a former US diplomat, guided her well in her teens and twenties. It seems he may be justifiably peeved that he did not receive an invitation.
Stayed tuned for ‘Keeping up With The Markles’ - airing on a channel near you…soon!!!
edited: and it seems Karma caught up with step-sister Samantha yesterday. It could not have happened to a more worthy ‘opponent’!
Church of England now allows a royal to marry a divorced other, without losing their role.
Know the composer Carl Ditters von Dittersdorf? The name aways amused me. So veering a little, I’d be Lady Anastasia Augusta von Augustasdorf. I guess I could be from the old Austrian wing of the family.
“I think Queen Victoria was #5 or #6 in line when she was a child, but the deaths of several of her uncles moved her up quickly.”
Victoria was 3rd in line for the throne when she was born, behind two of her uncles. Her grandfather George III died when she was just a few months old, moving her up to 2nd. Uncle George IV died when she was about 10 years old, moving her up to first. Uncle William IV died shortly after she turned 18 making her Queen.
Even though Victoria was only 2nd in line when she was a young child, she was still regarded and treated as a likely future monarch, because it had been apparent for a long time that, given their scandalous and dissolute ways, neither of the two uncles ahead of her was likely to produce a legitimate heir.
Victoria was already queen when she got married. Now THAT would be a royal wedding worthy of a lot of attention.
“I suspect like here times have changed since his Harry’s father married a divorced woman in a civil ceremony.”
“Church of England now allows a royal to marry a divorced other, without losing their role.”
Let’s not forget that Prince Charles is a divorcee as well. The royals can’t really stand on ceremony any longer, can they?
