A boss move

Omg is she on the Epstein list.

 

[GinAg (39)]

Maybe she's standing at the General Election

 

[ZenGiraffe]

Oh no, did her slightly younger and much younger ghosts talk this through with her?

The new Danish monarchs

 

[KindaCool]

After 52 years ugh so humble!!

 

[GinAg (39)]

The new Queen is Australian which is FUN. She looks like an ageing schlager diva.

 

[Sheena]

You’d have a go on KING FREDERIK, wouldn’t you?

 

[GinAg (39)]

You’d have a go on KING FREDERIK, wouldn’t you?

Not as much as the King of Spain, but yeah sure.

 

[GNL]

You’d have a go on KING FREDERIK, wouldn’t you?

Considerably fitter than ours. Really quite unfair.

 

[KindaCool]

The only an Australian is "fun" is when they're on reality TV

 

[Sheena]

Not as much as the King of Spain, but yeah sure.

Throw in one of the Swedish princes for a ROYAL FLUSH

 

[Sheena]

Considerably fitter than ours. Really quite unfair.

Not hard though.

I mean, LITERALLY not hard.

 

[lolly]

You’d have a go on KING FREDERIK, wouldn’t you?

Only for some ROYAL SMØRREBRØD

Who's genes do we need to inject into the Windsor line to improve the looks? William and Harry both ultimately underperformed. Diana just wasn't hot enough. Hopefully Kate has improved the gene pool.

 

[Kratz]

Ham!

 

[Sheena]

I spent at least five seconds thinking about whether this was true with Kate before realising I shouldn’t even be thinking about it for a CONSIDERABLE NUMBER OF YEARS.

 

[Sheena]

Ham!

SPAM!

I realised it was dodgy ground, but eventually it's something we're going to have to consider.

 

[Madíson]

I wonder why she’s doing it so suddenly. Perhaps there is something very wrong with her health.

Drama.

Drama.

Quite! We love a (stunt) queen.

I'm getting Kate and Gerry McCann vibes, to be honest.

 

[Star]

Strips her grandchildren of their titles and then abdicates. What a b*tch.

 

[Madíson]

It means we’ll have no Queens regnant anywhere in the world for a good few years.

There’s always been at least one since Victoria came to the throne.

Declan Donnelly looks great there.

Who are the likely next contenders?

 

[Kratz]

Who are the likely next contenders?

Charlotte is but a tumble down the stairs (or ‘spa mishap’) by George from the throne.

 

[Madíson]

Who are the likely next contenders?

Sweden should be next. The heirs in Netherlands, Belgium and Spain are also girls. The eldest children of the Swedish Crown Princess and the Norwegian Crown Prince are both girls too.

 

[VoR]

Denmark has elections next year. Perhaps she fears the indignity of her final royal act being accidentally getting killed by a hapless incoming Prime Minister.

 

[Madíson]

This is taking place today with the abdication proper due at about 1PM (GMT), and the balcony at about 2PM.

 

[VoR]

and the balcony at about 2PM.

Are they going to end proceedings by hurling her off it?

 

[GinAg (39)]

God the coverage is dull. Big crowd though.
