Die young of what?, that woman have all the medical personals at her service,

Planes crash,
Accidents happen.
Houses burn down.
How about Cancer? There are still some "unmanageable" ones.
There are still incurable diseases out there.

I think save for the money part, they have really good genes.
I mean her mum lived up to a hundred.

They are but just in name. In actual practice the UK and the queen have no authority over what happens in Canada or Australia nor do they try to interfere in the running of those countries. Australia and Canada pay no tax or royalties to the UK either.

Of course. It is more or less a ceremonial title.
Even the UK is not so much controlled by the Queen. They have a prime minister and house of commons where laws are enacted.

New Zealand, Jamaica and many other countries are still under the Queen of England.

Most Canadians, Australians & New Zealanders are direct British descendants, hence their honour to the crown.

* she is completely safe from prosecution. Royals are spared from freedom of information,
They aren't required to share any information.


2) She can drive without a license.
* she doesn't legally need a license number. The Queen first learned to drive during WW2, she drove a first aid truck.

3) She doesn't need a passport to travel
* all UK passports are issued in the Queen's name. So, it's pointless for her to have one. But other royal family members need passports. This includes prince Philip and prince charles.

4) She gets to celebrate two birthdays.
* her official birthday is on 21ST April. However, Another celebration is held on second saturday of June. The tradition was started by king George II. It's held in June to provide good parade weather.

5) She has her own private ATM
* it's in the basement of Buckingham palace.

6) She doesn't have to pay tax
* However, she voluntarily from 1992.

7) She owns a lot of animals
* many already know about the Queen's corgi dogs, she also owns the swans in River Thames. She even owns animals in British waters. This includes dolphins, whales and sturgeons.

cool She has her own poet
* her current poet is Coral Ann Duffy. The poet work's typically holds national significance.

9) She is head of a religion
* the Queen is head of the church of England.
She can't convert to any other religion or church. If she does, that title may be revoked.


10) She is the Queen of Australia
she's reinged since February 6, 1952. She is represented by the Governor-General. She's also the monarch of several other countries. Some include Canada, The Bahamas and Barbados.

CLEARLY, THERE ARE SOME BENEFITS OF BEING QUEEN.

Uk is the number 1 female friendly country all because of this woman.

That's why women all over the world love her.

The only way that can happen is if the Duke & Duchess of Cambridge and ALL their Children die which ISN'T HAPPENING ANYTIME SOON.
dunno y d Harry lovers can't think on the line of succession. Except Ginger plans something Dianaesque, he will never be King.

Interesting.

It will get to Archie one day and suddenly the British empire will be ruled by a black. I'm sure Meghan is already calculating stuff like I am.
her calculations gave made her so glaringly obvious. This caused a schism between the brothers. This woman is like Wallis.

From what I have been made to understand, she isn't even in the line of anything called succession and even her children's children can't smell the throne.

I am sure she knew this already before she married him. So there's no calculation anywhere.

And she identifies as black, who are you to tell her she's not? undecided

she calculated. Did you know that she first went to the UK to date Ashley Cole for Fame? When they didn't hit off, she stayed back asking almost anyone who would listen for high profile people to date. Her family knew her well. The woman is calculating. She's a Fame and gold digger. Ask her ex husband. As an actress, she puts up a good show for those who believe it

Well then she must be a very good actress because she got what she wanted and her husband believes her acting.

She wanted to marry a famous person and she did. Some want to marry beautiful women and they do. Some want to marry intelligent people and they do. Why are you castigating her for her life choices?

She is who she is and goes for what she wants. How has she hurt anyone though?

Surely she won't be the first person to calculate and plan her future?

We castigate ladies for marrying for wealth. Yet, most of us won't marry ladies we are not physically attracted to. I see it as the same vanity, don't you?

we have agreed she's calculating. That's all.

Everyone who knew her in the past never had anything good to say about her. Can you guess why?
She went for what she wants, but she's still a calculating schemer, so nobody should call it love. She's been divorced how many times, refused to have a child with the man, but suddenly in a few months she wants to tie the prince down. She's gotten what she wanted. Enmity between brothers, enmity with her old friends, enmity with her family. Is there anyone she doesn't use and dump? One moment she's crying that she's being bullied, the next she's partying. The woman is a piece of work.
