I love them, in this odd i do not know either one, have no vested interest, and do not understand why kind of way, lol.

Congrats.

I've always felt the same way about the Windsors, I usually think they get a lot of unfair stick and I wish them well, and enjoy reading about them. Or some of them anyway. When some go on about abolishing the monarchy I feel like they don't know what they're missing.

Congrats to them! Love the British Monarchy and its history. I'll certainly be watching - it will be my first Royal Wedding. Also, I think Kate's very pretty.

Harry > William.

Just sayin'

I just love her hair in this interview.....long and flowy. She looks really good. They're both very charming.

Dateline NBC will have a special on this tomorrow night.

Kate does look very good there. She's gotten her share of media criticism over the last few years (for waiting on William instead of just marrying some random guy, for wanting a career, et al) so I know she must be ready for anything.

I also prefer Harry to William but I like them both.

And that he proposed with his mother's ring, a terrific tribute to her. 13 years later, such affection remains.

Interestingly, they'll be tying the knot 30 years after his father did.

Thanks for the update. I'll be sure to record it. I think Nightline is doing a special tonight.

Yeah, I can't believe she got cristism for that. What do they call her? "Waity-Katie"?

Agreed. William said it was a way for Diana to be part of this.

Yes. They criticize her for just waiting, for having a pushy mother, for being groomed (or so they claim) to get a prince. She was also criticized for not having enough of a job, yet when she did work somewhere she was also criticized for that.

The royals are often damned no matter what. I hope that they have more happiness than his parents did though, although it seems like Charles and Diana were always good parents to William and Harry.

Sometimes I think people in the US appreciate the royals more. Maybe it's grass is greener, I don't know.

I am happy for William. He resembles his mom a lot. I always thought he missed/loved his mom more than Harry. I've got to say though I prefer Harry over William too.

Some are predicting divorce.

Fortune tellers and all that stuff, amusing, maybe it works...but who knows how things will work out between them in 20 years.

What I'm thinking about is...

FERGIE! Will she be invited?! She's apparently beloved by William and Harry!

This was all over the news:

I'm sure some will get in a real tizzy about that but I don't see why.

Wouldn't she automatically become the queen?
