    I love them and I love your personalities for them and I’m sad my husband wouldn’t buy matching sneakers with me the other day and I’m going to show him that picture.

    I love that Will is going ‘Woot!’ in the wave pictures!

    And in that first picture, it looks like someone went to “Museum Lighting 101.”

    I read somewhere once upon a time that Edward is Elizabeth and Phillip’s favorite child. I don’t know if he was chosen to accompany Mum to the sport because the old man isn’t well or if Charles and Anne were scheduled elsewhere. You certainly can’t take Andrew anywhere.

      He is. It’s why he didn’t get in too much trouble when his old tv production company was stalking Wills round St Andrews during his first week at uni. And why he gets to be Duke of Edinburgh when Prince Philip dies.

      I’m sure you’re right that Edward is her favourite child, but Anne was there as well. She was just down the line a bit, next to Boris Johnson (would LOVE to have been a fly on the wall for that conversation).

        In all honesty, I heard Andrew was her fav. Hence all the Fergie/Trade Rep/Koo Stark hooey that he went through. I mean, there he was a War Hero and The Spare, now it doesn’t matter with Wills and Harry around; Sarah is an albatross around his neck; they jerked him back from being a Trade Envoy, now what does he do? Even the Queen doesn’t seem to know!

    i have such a couple-crush on them! i think it is fueled largely by your fanfic, actually, which i 100% believe.

      TOTALLY.

      I feel like this whole site could turn into one devoted to Wills and Kate and I would like it just as much as GFY. (PS: Don’t do that)

    Not only does he not look like a dork, but that’s quite a package he’s toting!

    Great conversations! Poor Harry. I just love the Queen and I really love those two aquamarine pins on her jacket. And I really love those photos of Kate sitting with her young flower girl Lady Louise from yesterday.

    YAY Paralympics!

    The Queen looked especially lovely.

    Kate looked fantastic, as always, but I really, really hate jeggings. I don’t care how perfect yuor figure is, I don’t want to see the contour of every part of your body. It’s just too much.

    sorry but the matching shoes just weird me out, they look fine on her but on him they look off. But you know, I can appreciate the sentiment behind it if I try hard enough.

    I know everybody is big (yes, pun intended) on Hot Harry, but he really will age into Charles – and Wills looks very handsome (even with the other Windsor Crown), and will age like a very fine wine. Oh, Wills.

      I agree. I think William’s least attractive decade was his twenties, but he was a much more attractive teenager and I think he’s going to be a very attractive middle-aged (and older) man. Whereas Harry is gorgeous now, but I think it’ll fade fairly quickly. Either way they’re both cuties, though.

    HA I love how cranky your Wills is about the Harry pictures. I also love how much he and Kate love the wave. Can I just be their friends now or what?

    I love it when they do the wave! Your posts on them are great!

    This is my favorite Wills and Kate exchange EVER!!! I can just picture both of them saying those things. “Do I look like a doofus with my shirt tucked in?” Yes, future King of England, you do indeed look like a lovable doofus. :D

    Prince Edward just looks happy though, doesn’t he?

    I’ll be happy when Harry gets let out of time-out.

    The way you write this trio has SUCH a Bey & Jay + Kanye element to it ( e.g. http://jayandbeyworryaboutye.tumblr.com/ ) and I couldn’t love it more

    Your Wills & Kate Soap Opera is really the best thing about the Olympics.

    When I saw the Para-opening ceremony, I was struck by how like Philip Edward is these days. Striking resemblence.

    I absolutely love your posts on the Royals. Thanks Fug Girls

    As a sidenote, do you know the British call that the Mexican wave? What is that about? What makes it Mexican? Without fail, since I (a Canadian) have been in London, every British person I know consistently adds the Mexican adjective.

      I’m from New Zealand and we call it a “mexican wave” too. I thought that’s what everyone called it! Do Canadian’s & American’s just call it a “wave”? Weird!
      I think it might be time for me to do a google search to find out why it’s called a mexican wave here.

      • Heidi

        Okay, I have an answer. The “wave” had been around in the USA for a number of years already but was only seen by a wider audience in 1986 when Mexico was hosting the football world cup, hence it is known as the “mexican wave” outside of North America.

    Am I the only one who is going to highlight the pronounced “junk in the front” inside Wills’ pants?

    Love the posts on the Royals. Seriously. We need a full-length fanfic (WITH pictures).

      dear lord, thank you. i’ve been skimming the comments so hard for ‘bulge’ and finally saw ‘junk’. and a chubby little chicken it is.

    Must add to the clamor about how much I love the royal posts. I never cared one way or the other about the royal family outside of my general love of history but these posts make me squee every time! What a delightful way to end the week.
