Glad they had a healthy sonā€¦itā€™s just a passing interest here in the USā€¦different for Australians as you are all probably celebrating in the streetsā€¦after allā€¦William is going to be your king one day

We would probably prefer Harry, but William is growing on us. Charles comes first thoughā€¦
 
I have my doubts about Harry. Someone may claim he doesnā€™t carry royal blood. Not his fault though.

Even if the claim is true, he would still have connections to the Royal Family via his descent from the Spencers. Obviously that would put him a LOT further down the line of succession, but now that William and Kate have an heir, a spare, and a third, Harry is never going to see the throne. And honestly, I think heā€™s exactly the kind of Royal for this day and age. Heā€™s an active man, a man who served his country in active duty, and his work with the Invictus Games is inspiring. He had a bit of an errant youth, to be sure, but second sons in a Royal Family often have a harder time finding their place, but now heā€™s become, just by his nature, a greater modernizer for the Royal Family.

And honestly, I donā€™t believe heā€™s someone elseā€™s son. I think itā€™s a spurious rumor.

I agree. If you compare pictures of Harry to the Duke of Edinburgh, they look very similar. The usual argument is that Harry has red hair, as did the one of the men Diana had an affair with (James Hewitt, I think, who has also said the affair didnā€™t start until Harry was around 2), but red hair is a Spencer trait.

I also suspect Harry is very glad he will never be king.

As an American and an outsider without a dog in the fight, I find it amusing that next in line is a gargoyle who had his first wife whacked for a mistress who looks more like Secretariat. Is that going to make her queen? I think the Brits have been watching too much Game of Thrones for their own good.šŸ˜‰šŸ¤”:roll_eyes:

Any claims of NYC style whacking are unsubstantiated.
Although the Royals did head to the mattresses for a while.
Secretariat, as far as horses go , had the perfect conformation. He was well built. Did his job, was very successful.
Her title, when Charles became king was to be HRH Princess Consort. But who knows.

You funny Americans! šŸ™€
 
Be interesting to see if it is, Arthur was originally the favourite of the bookies. Itā€™s almost a shame theyā€™ve already used George as this babyā€™s been born on St Georgeā€™s Day. One of Georgeā€™s middle names is also Alexander, so I wonder if they have used it.

Big Red was the greatest race horse ever! IMO. Itā€™s just that I had a funny picture in my head of the cover of a magazine called Royalty. There was a picture of the late Princess Grace of Monaco, and whatā€™s her face, side by side. Ruined my appetite.
Just sayin.
Oh and ā€œPrincess Consortā€? Is that anything like concubine? And if whatā€™s her face is called a princess, there are going to be millions of little girls worldwide who are going to be quite disillusioned. And you can bet Disney ainā€™t gonna be pleased either.

i was thinking the same thing. George would have been the perfect name for this little guy born on St. Georgeā€™s Day.
oh, well, it will be interesting to see what name they decide on.

Having used the name ā€œGeorgeā€ for his first son didnā€™t stop George Foreman from using it again for his second, and third, and fourth, and fifth!
