After last week’s ABSOLUTELY OUT OF CONTROL Royals Round-Up, this week is considerably less busy. Meghan and Harry are, I presume, hunkered down doing a series of intense dermatological treatments carefully timed so that they have the most perfect faces possible in two weeks. I assume Kate is very busy staring at her baby. Who knows what everyone else is doing — I suspect hat shopping.
First of all, this is very exciting. On Monday, May 7th, Heather and I are going to be on a Royal Wedding special on E! special called “The Real Princess Diaries: From Diana to Meghan.” It’s airing at 9 p.m. ET/PT, if you want to check it out!
However, if you’re still longing for Meghan’s green floral day dress of last week, I rounded up a bunch of options for you.
We also ran a very VERY fat retrospective of Wills and Kate’s many years of romantical gazing upon the occasion of their anniversary.
And, elsewhere:
There was a BIG press briefing about the wedding today at Kensington Palace. Omid Scobie — one of my fave royals reporters — had a very very informative Twitter thread about it this morning. Wedding logistics!
