Great photographer! RIP, Armstrong-Jones.
Buckingham Palace said the Queen had been informed, but did not comment further.
I wonder how the Queen is doing. She had been sick. I think I heard that she was getting better. I hope that's true.
The REAL Princess Margaret, or the Pantomime Princess Margaret?
Very handsome as I recall.
Bride and groom...she looked ecstatic....he didn't.
She certainly does NOT look ecstatic,she looks resigned.

How can you tell? Are you British?
Monty Python bit about Nazis in North Minehead: “Well, I think I’d pay some Dutchman to set fire to Lord Snowden.”
RIP.
He got a title out of it.
Or, am I thinking of the Queen’s brother-in-law?
He had no upper lip at all, poor man.
I mean son-in-law. Smh. Time for another cup of coffee.
This is the Queen’s brother-in-law, or at least he was until he and the Queen’s sister divorced. The article says he was given his title after he married Princess Margaret; before that, he was Mr. Armstrong-Jones.
Snowdon was the Queen’s BIL by being married to Elizabeth’s sister, Margaret. There’s a good series on either Netflix or Amazon right now that includes Margaret getting permission to marry.
It does not appear that either of Princess Anne’s husbands was given a title.
He was not her first choice. That would have been Group Captain Peter Townsend, who was married but who was her true love.
Standing together after the ceremony, it looks like he had already started
sending her notes he was famous for.....about the reasons why he hated her.
