Officials have confirmed that Albert is set to take a paternity test for what could be his third illegitimate child. That's Monaco for you.

Prince Albert and Charlene just had their first of two weddings today. They'll out-glam Kate and Jamie's wedding tomorrow during the religious ceremony (today was civil).

Hahaha yes it is! Little known fact: those usually come with a pursing of the lips and a shaking of the head.

Bless your heart.

This reminds me of how sad I am that Brenda Dickson made youtube take down the Welcome to My Home videos.

Depending on when you go they might not have the exhibit anymore. If you look on their website you can get a sense of what they were going for (although it looks a lot cooler online). I just wish they'd kept it historically accurate instead of whatever they turned it into. As a history/royalty nerd, seeing where Queen…

He was presumably a part of the exhibit, which is supposed to be longterm. The weird part (other than the fact that Kensington Palace has a guy in a pith helmet running around) was that when I tried to ask him about his role in the exhibit, I couldn't get any kind of answer. So whatever role he had is still…

I toured Kensington Palace last year for the AWFUL Enchanted Palace exhibit and I think that if the decor in the Cambridge portion of the palace is anything like what I saw, she's right to change it. I'll take dark corridors and stuffiness anyday over what looked like childlike stenciling on the walls and a weirdo…

I never believed in PMS until I went to England a few weeks ago with a friend and we both got our periods on the same day. Literally every single thing she did made me want to kill her -and I know the feeling was mutual. I would definitely recommend that unless you're traveling in a large group with a tour guide,…

I recently met someone who was a guest on the Colbert Report a couple of months ago and he told me about how much of the interviews are scripted beforehand -or at least that Colbert and the interviewee have at least an idea of the questions to be asked and what the answers will be. Stephen clearly knew what Ms. Scott…

That's Princess Michael of Kent. The rest of the family hates her for various reasons, including the fact that she's a cat person and they like dogs, and that she brags about how much smarter her children are than other royals and that she bragged that until Diana married into the family she was the last tall person…

Abe Vigoda!

Not to mention the fact that they're now the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. They're new titles, sure, but that's what they are called now. There hasn't been a Duke and Duchess of Cambridge for a very long time, so this shouldn't be so confusing. It's the basic form of respect -not because they're royal, but because…

Also, I'm pretty sure it was just Nancy and not the president.

@LadyTudorRose: Oh definitely. I don't think AP is as great as it used to be, but they're still loads more informative and less judgemental than other sites. I was reading Royal Musings yesterday and saw where someone commented with a link to their own blog. While it had some interesting stories, the commentary the…

@salsasis14: It wasn't supposed to. She just wore it like that because it was around the time that flappers were wearing low headbands and many royals did the same with their tiaras. As a lighter tiara it looks much better than others I've seen. Some of the big ones, low on the forehead, made them look like Geordi on…

@Fridge Hussy: A Hussy Re: Fridges!: I don't think it was because of the Napoleon connection. It was my understanding that the tiara had been worn by queen consorts and that Victoria, as a future queen regnant, might want to start a new tradition to signify that her position was going to be different.

@Princess Leela: As a "royal watcher", albeit one who isn't a snob about it, I think that for a lot of people it's about the historical aspect. Tracing jewels instead of battles -which, to me, is a lot more fun.

@LadyTudorRose: I was definitely expecting some quotes pulled from the AP Forum. There have been some interesting arguments/discussions over titles and jewels.

@HerdingCats: That was Trey. Jada was pregnant with Jaden at the time, so technically he was in the video, just not in person form yet.
