What is Kate getting surgery for though? Is there a surgical procedure that makes you no longer British? I'd probably get that, if I were born British.

Transnationalism surgery.

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/mar/11/princess-wales-says-her-edited-family-photo

quote:

The Princess of Wales has apologised and accepted responsibility for an editing error that led to an official photograph of her and her three children being recalled by international picture agencies.

In a tweet posted on the Prince and Princess of Wales’s social media platforms, Catherine wrote: “Like many amateur photographers, I do occasionally experiment with editing. I wanted to express my apologies for any confusion the family photograph we shared yesterday caused. I hope everyone celebrating had a very happy Mother’s Day. C.”

The photograph, taken by Prince William at Windsor last week and released to the media through Kensington Palace to mark Mother’s Day, was the first of Catherine to be released after her abdominal surgery two months ago.

Though palace officials hoped it would reassure, after much online speculation and conspiracy theories over her condition and her health, it instead fuelled rumours after what appeared to be manipulation of the image.

More details soon …

I get why some people over here are interested, we are saddled with the fuckers and our press are obsessed with them, but I will forever be mystified why they are such a massive thing in the US. Could one of our transatlantic cousins explain?

She probably had her lady parts taken out, due to being at risk of something nasty, after carrying 3 of the pegman's children.. :ms:


Also, Wizard Master.....do you work for the daily mail?

I feel like it's way less massive than you imagine.

you'd think, but I still remember napping comfortably at my friend's house then being shaken awake by her mother because Princess Diana had just died. It's a mystery to me why we, American children whose largest association with Diana was appearances in Tiny Toons, needed to know this as soon as it happened.

that was also almost 30 years ago. its way less now. when the queen died it was a thing but other than that it's a big shrug

When Diana died I remember the cable channels having a message over the screen saying to turn to the news channels. I think some channels also automatically changed over to news channels after a while. Fuckers got in the way of my morning cartoons :mad:

lol, I also remember that ticker on every channel(and also wondering why the Pavarottis were in pursuit of Diana's car). Non-british people really gave a poo poo about all that royals crap and it's mind boggling in retrospective

The royals have such a weird following in the US it’s nuts but this story is interesting because how does one of the most scrutinized PR entities in the world gently caress up like this and why the gently caress up occurred is also interesting.

This is a textbook example of the coverup always being worse than the crime.

I think you're underselling it. They're still on the news, they're still on the covers of supermarket tabloids. Oh Harry's got a big interview with Oprah.

Just because we don't care doesn't mean there's not millions of folks who do, for some dumb rear end reasons.
