Prince Harry engaged
2017-11-28
[IMAGES.DAWN] An official announcement by the Kensington Palace reads: “His Royal Highness, The Prince of Wales is delighted to announce the engagement of Prince Harry to Ms Meghan Markle. The wedding will take place in spring 2018.
I read another article that was titled "Megan Markle won't reign as 'black princess'" or something like that, bitching that the royals aren't hopping up and down shouting that she's 'black.' Had I not seen that article, I'd never have known.

#5  the 'she's a divorcee' subject never came up?

Queen Elizabeth II knew, and approved the match. Prince William will soon have children, so Prince Harry will never get near the throne.

bitching that the royals aren't hopping up and down shouting that she's 'black.'

Ms Markle’s father is as Jewish as her mother is Black. Ms Markle is a lovely version of the all-American mutt.

#4  Does it really matter? Blacks has been part of the united kingdom for so long you would think that they may be one of the original settlers,

The important thing is that she (and her family) are citizens of the UK!

#3  Harry blew it. If he had to hit on a "Suits" actress, Sarah Rafferty would have been the best choice, though I guess a half-Irish wife would be less acceptable to the powers that be than Ms. Markle.

#2  And the 'she's a divorcee' subject never came up?

Guess they finally are past Edward VIII.
