"A former close friend…." Ohmygosh. Even former friends should stay within some boundaries of decency. As a very private secret that only a handful of people knew, it would be kind of special and cute. Revealing this is just plain vicious.

Is Harrison after Harrison Ford as Hans Solo or Indian Jones? <^..^>

I think here is someone of Stewart descent in Austria. This Windsor gang is spent.

There is a Plantagenet heir in Australia, Michael Abney-Hastings. Is that whom you mean?

According to this Crown fan site, the Stuart succession has been legally excluded since 1701.

I agree with you. Will and Kate should keep their spawn far, far away from Mother of Cat.

[Albion Wilde]

At least the cat wasn’t named Patches or Fluffy or something.

Could have been worse. She could have insisted upon Hakeem or D'shawn.

Michael Abney-Hastings.

He’ll do !
Plantagenet’s - a bloody but entertaining lot!
GOT fans will love it!

Archie is not gender-neutral, so the duchess of Loonville will have a difficult time getting him to play with dolls.

[Albion Wilde]

My cat was named after a great saint of the Church. So I’d have been OK if I had done this stupid, disrespectful, self-indulgent slap in the face of her husband’s grandmother, Queen and country.

[Reily]

wait !
I just looked him up !
He’s dead!
In that condition he can vote democrat but would have a hard time being a monarch!

[Albion Wilde]

It is sounding more and more likely that HM is not objecting to most of the couples’ antics, because she believes the rumors that Harry is not from Charles, but from a bodyguard of Diana’s.

Since for many years Harry was third in line to the throne, do you think for one second the senior royals would never had his DNA checked? (eye roll).

[Albion Wilde]

According to the dodgy DailyMail, Harrison is supposedly for “Harry’s son,” even though Harry is the Prince’s nickname. His legal name is Henry.

[Albion Wilde]

He’s dead! In that condition he can vote democrat but would have a hard time being a monarch!

Right you are.

[Inspectorette]

Prince Jughead! LOL - nearly blew my Bloody Mary all over my keyboard!!

[caww]

Meghan has micro managed every aspect about this event...I think she thought she’d be the star of all the Royalty on her terms. She is fast discovering that’s not how things work in Britain.

[Rastus]

When they make a movie about it, Archie will be a sled.

[Captain Peter Blood]

Good point.

[Rastus]

Somebody beat me to it upthread.

[caww]

well actually that story isn’t right....the name was given to reflect Harry’s happy go lucky whimsical personality, one that would reflect that Harry. I think they got that right considering neither of them “fit” into the Royal Standards in what they do.

[caww]

(eye roll)...Do you think the senior royals would broadcast it if either yes or no?

[Albion Wilde]

No, I think they would have discreetly advised Harry that he would not be included in the line of succession, but that William would find an important role for him. My point being, surely they did the test to either confirm or be able to deny the rumors among themselves, for their own peace of mind. And by the way, Harry looks very much like Charles' father Phillip when Phillip was young.
