[QUOTE="Rove, post: 139070, member: 100"] I had high hopes William and Kate would be a little different to what we expect traditionally from the Royal family but I fear they're now controlled by the very thing Diana spoke of - The Firm. Diana may have started off as a wallflower but by the end she was a powerhouse. The announcement of her death sent grown hardened men I worked with at the time to silence. Everyone was effected by her death. Did she have her critics? Of course. She manipulated the media as much as they used and abused her and everyone who purchased or read those glossy women's magazines or newspapers with another hair-raising story or photos of Diana had blood on their hands. And that's being brutally honest. I just don't get Kate. She is 36 years old ( the same age of Diana's death) and is bland. I want personality, colour, a common touch. I'm just not seeing this. Meanwhile Prince Harry and Meghan have just toured Australia, New Zealand and other countries and set alight the places they visited. Speaking with relatives who specially drove to Dubbo to be in the presence of Royalty and the downpour, they said it was hard to explain how uplighting it was for the people of Dubbo and surrounding districts currently experiencing hardship with another prolonged drought. Harry (to me anyway) appears to have inherited his late mothers abilities. If this brings a smile to kids and adults alike I say the more the merrier. Sometimes there is too much sadness in this world. By the way. I believe in Australia becoming a Republic. And that is nothing against the Royal Family. [/QUOTE]
