Prince Andrew, Fergie and their two daughters. Andrew’s choices always seemed unwise. His ex-wife, to put it mildly, never had the dignity of a Duchess. Her former boyfriend’s chalet in Verbier was known as Cocaine Castle and her nickname back then was “Lollipop”. Years later, I was at a dinner for a charity of which she was a patron. While the Chairman made a serious speech, she stood beside him, clearly pissed, giggling and making rabbit’s ears with her fingers behind his head. Her daughters’ headwear at William and Kate’s wedding invited worldwide ridicule. And while the British people seemed right behind Harry and Meghan’s wedding earlier this year, they showed no interest in Princess Eugenie’s glitzy, celeb-heavy nuptials on Friday. And now even that has been trumped by today’s announcement that Harry and Meghan are expecting their first child. Poor old Andrew. He never could get it right.
The not so Royal Family.
