I believe the Duchess of Windsor didn't attend the funerals of George VI or Queen Mary. Furthermore she wasn't pregnant, and there wasn't a worldwide pandemic raging. Talking of which, wouldn't they have to quarantine? Are the Royals exempt from such rules? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Something of a 50/50. Don't really see that it's disrespectful at all and even if it were has it therefore been disrespectful to all those that have gone before (that died before their birthday)? I stand corrected, said the man in the orthopaedic shoes. I would've thought that they'd choose the age as of 01JAN of that year. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YouOnlyDieOnce 89 Posted April 9, 2021 I see that lots of flowers have been placed outside Buckingham Palace, with no greengrocer nearby or any florists open, where the Hell did people get them from? Were they nicked from St James' Park or did they scale the walls of the palace grounds to steal them from there? Not being distasteful, just wondering during the current dystopian era. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reports suggest they would be exempt. But he might well fly over tonight and the funeral will delayed slightly to allow him to attend afterwards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
