Wow, that was awesome! Thanks for posting that. Things do change.

What’s most noteworthy to me in this video is the coolness between William and Kate. There does not appear to be any love between them.

Same. They don't even look like a couple.

Wrong. They are British and are showing proper decorum.

The 70-year-old King and Queen are British too aren’t they?

I guess liking your spouse is against decorum.

I don't know what your point is. I think you seem to think that they all are robots and are supposed to act the same. King Charles III lost his mother which is sorely more upsetting than losing your grandmother. But, I am sure you will come back with a witty retort. Just because William and Kate behaved differently does NOT mean they don't love each other or aren't showing proper decorum.

Charles and Camilla have always been affectionate, and usually William and Kate are at least walking closely together and looking at each other sometimes, and even holding hands.

Yep. Their apparent distance has nothing to do with tradition and decorum. I’m typically team W&K vs H&M, but the contrast between the two couples was stark. There have been many public appearances with William and Kate where they showed affection. Charles and Camilla are more often than not affectionate. I’m beginning to suspect the rumors are true.

For heaven’s sake it’s a solemn occasion not a high school dance.

That was my thought too when I read the comment but did you watch the video? PP is actually onto something.

I agree
Even metropolitan police will need new badges

Oh well, let the English spend their money how they wish, cope with interest rate hikes, rising energy prices and inflation

Now tell me again how the RF is bringing billions to the country?

This is fun to watch, but I am so glad it is not on my dime

Really? Their grandmother was 96a be in poor health for a few years now. They are 40 year olds with their own families. Charles at 73. The queen was not close to them. She was the queen. Life goes on.

I have just never seen Kate and William walk so far apart from each other when arriving together to a function. She looked like she was an assistant and William, Harry, and Meghan were family. It was weird.

She was also not at the Diana statue unveiling. Maybe pass that because it’s public but why wouldn’t you be with your husband with his grandmother dying? Sophie and Camilla were there.

Because the Queen was already dead and they had just dropped the children off for the first day of school. She needed to be there to pick them up and be with them for all of the stuff that is about to follow. With the exception of William and Harry - who were/were now about to be the children of a King — no other grandchildren or great-grandchildren were there. It’s not nefarious - this is part of a very-long planned out national event which it sounds like moved very quickly and didn’t have as much notice as people had presumed would happen.

Sophie and Edward also have minor children. If they were already dropped off that makes even less sense as seems super easy to have Nanny Maria pick them up. It’s not like his grandmother dies every day seems kind of unhealthy to decline to be supportive for even one day for a school run. Either she didn’t care to go or he didn’t want her there.

Prince Edward is her actual child. William is her grandchild. His kids are her great grandchildren. So big difference.

I heard on the news that her children had gathered near at the end. Not the entire family.

It does not seem odd for a granddaughter-in-law to not show up at the bedside. What is a little odd is for the second son of the future king to not be able to travel to Scotland on the same military jet his brother took. Does it have to do with Harry not being able to use public resources? They couldn't stop being paranoid about whether he would share details about the experience or what people would say in his memoir? Harry should have been treated as an equal to William by his father in this particular private situation.

He was treated as an equal. maybe he didn’t want to go on the jet, or maybe he had a bad stomach or maybe he and Meghan were unsure of what to do and hesitated before the plane took off. Not sure why you jump to the conclusion that poor Harry was maligned when you literally have no idea.

Dp, but it does seem odd that it was announced to the press that Harry and merchants were in route, and then Harry showed up many hours later, alone, after the announcement was made.

Here is how it actually went down:

Thanks for posting the article, PP

No way Kate made the decision whether or not to be there. She would certainly have done whatever was asked of her.

Seems like they had Kate stay back as a reason for why they could say Meghan shouldn't attend. It would seem equal. But clear why they wouldn't want her there after everything.

Kate's children were close to queen and are old enough to feel the loss of death. They just moved to Windsor and had their first day of school. How could she leave them at such confusing and sad time?

Oh wow. I watched it specifically because I thought I'd disagree with your comment, but affection doesn't seem to be the order of the day! Especially contrasted with Harry and Meghan. But in fairness, it probably is a stressful time. They have a lot going on!

I think H and M can “get away” with holding hands since they are not senior royals anymore. From what I’ve read W and K are way, way more constrained by what is “expected” from them.

That's true, they are pretty uptight about the expectations on them, but they do'nt have to walk five feet apart.

The PP above who said it wasn’t Kate’s choice was spot on. They aren’t independent actors.

Prince Edward is her actual child. William is her grandchild. His kids are her great grandchildren. So big difference.

No you really can not say that. The queen was a very old women. I do not think she had a lot of interact with the great grand kids. It is not the way she was raised. That was the Annie’s and governesses job. Sure she would have some phots taken and a nice puff article written but she was not playing with them.

NP. I won't say your'e wrong but this reads like something from the Daily Mail. Are you English? Genuinely curious.

I think Kate looks clearly angry at Meghan's presence. She avoids even looking in her direction.

Death in the family and pulled in mutiple directions. More to pull off and more scrutiny than any of us can imagine. I imagine Kate and Will are proceesing a great deal in both their hearts and their heads at this time. I'm not going to speculate on their marriage by how they interact in public during this week.

Then why is she ignoring her own husband?
