Princess Eugenie of York

[Yossarian]

The tiara was sensational.

The guests though? Did you see how much they were wriggling and squiggling throughout the ceremony? They needed etiquette classes! Stay still and look serene. Yes, parts of it were boring but that doesn't mean you crane your head trying to get a glimpse of what everyone else is wearing. Tacky.

ETA: also, no-one who has properly read and actually *understood* The Great Gatsby would choose it as a wedding reading!!!!

The BRF aren't brain surgeons, that's for sure. I side-eyed the reference as well.

friends with Eugenie (through "socializing" "partying" "Miami at 3 am" and "because we have a lot of friends in common").

Honestly, that pretty much sums up the Yorks for me. Tell me again why we were supposed to care about this match?

Still, yep, the tiara was fabulous. I was pretty surprised that she didn't wear her mother's tiara, but I suspect it was a matter of "Her Maj lent this to my daughter personally".

Demi is so thirsty. Despite a social media ban, she's been telling anyone who'll listen that she felt like a princess at the wedding. I'm honestly embarrassed for her.

I am actually baffled by her attendance. Maybe she's friendly with Fergie or/and Andrew. If anything, I'd expect her kids to attend. At least they're peers with Eugenie age wise.

I was completely baffled by a Great Gatsby reading! Thank you all for validating my own WTF. I guess she really is that dim, or clever in some way I have not yet figured out...

Topic: She looked amazing, loved the fit of the dress and the tiara was gorgeous.

I wonder if Jack's going to get a title to avoid Eugenie having to be "Princess Eugenie, Mrs Brooksbank". Has it been announced yet?

If he'd gotten a title it would have been announced before the wedding. Evidently he didn't want one.

I'm not sure what that means? She avoids social media?

I know she's beautiful, and known for her long, dark hair, and I hope I don't make anyone cry, but burgundy should be retired as a colour that people are allowed to wear.

It would be interesting if Margaret was still alive how prominent or not would her kids be still. They very low key now. I don't think they were ever not low key they aren't HRHs.

Her kids have always been pretty much offstage. Neither of them seem to be partiers, both have some sort of job and life outside the gilded cage. I don't think either ever thought they'd have a shot at the throne, so they made their paths elsewhere.

Poppy Delevingne looks like she's wearing a bunch of paper lace doilies. So tacky.
