Totally get that but this new position isn't any better because he's not qualified for it at all. He's spent his entire 20s and 30s bottling with alcohol in some fashion. He didn't even graduate college. Now he's going to be the CEO of whatever it is his father used to do? |

Perhaps if they weren’t so opposed to hiring anyone that wasn’t a white man they would have better people. He’s not even British! |
That's your take on this?

I am super super shocked to find out James Middleton and his French fiancee Alizée Thevenet married this week in the south of France.
Pippa, Kate, and Carole all attended with husbands. This was the last big society wedding from the Middletons for the next 20 years.

Super quiet. I get that they put off getting married for two years thanks to the pandemic and were actually engaged all the way back in October 2019. But I never expected Carole, mother of the Future QUEENtm, to allow her only son to get married not only outside of the U.K. but also without the pomp-and-circumstance she expected from her royal-adjacent children. Like...no thousand cameras capture George, Charlotte, Louis, Arthur, and Grace walking down the aisle in cute matching outfits? Sacrilege! |
Why are you shocked? They’ve been engaged for a while and already had to postpone the wedding twice. |
I’m sure you were waiting for them to do that so you could bash them for flouting Covid protocol. Carol Middleton didn’t get her family to where they are by being daft. |
Covid protocol is over The Queen's cousin married in London on Thursday with royal attendees
|
It’s not really up to Carole, now is it? Perhaps the bride snd groom wanted to keep it quiet. Who can blame them? I wouldn’t want my wedding to be some big circus either. |
It's absolutely up to Carole. James doesn't have a job, a degree, a career or an income. Just like his sisters he was living in a house paid for by Carole - her actual house to be frank. But unlike his sisters he doesn't have a wealthy husband to spend on him. That's on top of his bride marrying into a family where Carole and his sisters opinions matter very much. I applaud Alizee for deftly navigating that tangle. |

Huge fan of Alizee. She is perfect! Discreet stunning and very respectful of her place in the orbit. Carole gets a round of applause.
And their “low key” wedding was probably jaw droppingly beautiful. And a French wedding was just the right touch, she’s the bride after all and I’m sure it made it easier on her family. |
