William and Harry (when not in uniform) have also been wearing blue suits this entire time, while the women have worn black. It’s clearly some sort of protocol.

Then why black pants and blue jacket for George?
Charlotte is just the cutest. Proud parents for sure.

I don’t know, but regardless of your thoughts on Kate, I am 100% sure she dressed him appropriately and as was expected for his age.

You seem a little triggered. Maybe catch a nap?

I’m not triggered. You think they accidentally mismatched his pants? Come on.

Anyone else think of a Harry Potter wand when he did that? Or am I the only HP nerd on here?

Ever since watching some special on PBS about the Queen I have loved Sarah Chatto. She seems so real and nice and sweet and exuded genuine affection for the Queen. It's amazing she turned out so well when her parents were such messes. I bet the Queen helped raise her.

It was 'God Save the King' but carry on.

They might have sung “God Save the Queen (or King)” on this occasion, but some US Episcopal churches sing “My Country ‘Tis of Thee” in the place of the British version.

One of the British reporters sniffed at her lack of a hat. And it’s time for the messy blonde hair to get a proper cut.

Her little girl bow looked ridiculous. I have no problem with her style in general, but this was an occasion to represent the US with dignity.

She lacks style and class.

Dr. Jill Biden has class. Your opinion does not count.

I'm entitled to my opinion, it doesn't have to count for others.

I never said you didn't have the right. Just said it doesn't matter.

The whole Henry VIII thing still sticks in their throat.

Awful haircuts though!

I'm glad it's over. Now we don't have to hear about her anymore.

There were at least two high-level representatives from the Vatican there.

I'm aware. It's not a big deal which is why I said carry on.

It was HRM's funeral. Why do we Americans have to make every world event about 'us' or make embarrassing gaffes about whatever American thing is this or that way during an event that has nothing to do with us?

It's not funny. It just makes us look boorish and ignorant.

Yes, but not the Pope, which was the original question. The reps would be there for appearance's sake--so as not to snub the queen.

Charles looked like he's aged ten years in the last two weeks.
