Honours!

Posted by Cynthia on April 23, 2024, 11:40 am

To the Garter: the duchess of Gloucester! And Lord Lloyd Webber, very surprisingly.

The princess of Wales to the Order of Merit. Apparently the first time a royal is a member.

I'm very surprised about the Duchess of Gloucester. She's the first married-in (other than the spouses of the monarch or heir) to receive that honor.

Excellent for the Duchess of Gloucester, a life of quiet, loyal duty rewarded.
Great appointments all around.

Agree. If it doesn't involve a giant velvet poofy hat with an outrageous feather does it even hold our interest?

Companion of Honor, not Order of Merit. Mea culpa.
