The wedding of Prince William and Catherine Middleton was today, and it reminded me of why I should be proud to be British. Our Royal Family is a centre part to the British way of life, that we have divorce is thanks to King Henry VIII, yes he was crazy but he made it possible. The RF are a figure of hope for many, especially in tough times, no matter how bad things are, a Royal occasion we can all watch really helps cheer the country up. The fact that Britain still has a RF is something to be proud of itself. So many European countries got rid of their royal families due to them not being able to evolve with the times. Our RF has managed to so, and therefore managed to retain their place in Britain.
The wedding itself was absolutely stunning. The dress, the abbey, the bride, everything. Even Prince William told her she was beautiful, and no lip reader was required for viewers to understand what he was saying. The balcony viewing was awesome, they kissed so fast I wonder if anyone got it. They did it on their terms, not waiting for the crowd to start chanting, and then they kissed again. No Royal couple has ever kissed on the balcony twice since the tradition was introduced by Prince William's mother and father; Princess Diana and Prince Charles 30 years ago.
I'm proud to be British, and I should remember it more often.
Remember, love. Always love.
