Royal Divorce: Britons Make Bets On A Will-Kate Split
http://i.huffpost.com/gen/239786/thumbs/r-ROYALWEDDING-large570.jpg
LONDON — Two of the favorite pastimes in Britain – royal-watching and betting – are morphing into one raucous market centered on the royal wedding.
Prince William and Kate Middleton aren’t even married yet – that will take place April 29 – but some Britons are already betting they will end up getting divorced.
The odds are unlikely, the topic is disrespectful but when two people disagree on a subject, it’s time to lay some money down.
…
I don’t understand how the odds are unlikely. The divorce rate is quite high and no one is is exempt. Further, cohabitation before marriage is a risk factor for divorce.
