Re: Close-up Photo of Baby Archie After His Christening Today

Leave this woman alone.   Enough with the vile comments - he loves her, he chose her - that is enough for me.  They are both adults, and now they have created this beautiful child.  William and Kate are in a completely different position - they are going to be King and Queen, and thus have to act in a certain manner, whereas Harry and Meghan do not have those constrictions.  All the best to both families.

I don't see any tension between any members of the family.  The only place where there may be some tension would be between Charles and Diana's sisters.  And even there, there is no tension evident.

 

I know some of you are looking for drama, but I wouldn't use this picture as evidence of it.

Yes, I had meant to mention that, too.


The grandfather and future king are standing. Why single out the grandmother and wish her to be seated...especially in this age of equality?

I think it’s a lovely picture as is.

I have not followed every aspect of the marriage BUT I thought they kept the god parents PRIVATE to avoid more drama.  No matter who they selected in the era of SOCIAL media they would be hounded and harrassed.  I think this move is to PROTECT Them from the media and the stress.  Now the key will be to see...how long will this secret be KEPT!!!

@Daisy Sunflower  Kate’s mother stood in photos when Kate’s were christened.  

 

No doubt there were many photos of many arrangements in addition to this one. 

 

A name has leaked for godfather.  Likely both will be known before the end of the year, if not sooner.

@Sushismom...Like you, everyone has the right to their opinion, however, why be nasty in a thread about a sweet baby who was just christened?


 

And yet I seldom now post on threads where I don't like the content. It's easier just to pass those by instead of telling others how I don't like it. As for being "nasty", funny how you didn't call out those who were being nasty. Just my post. Hmm.

There are some who just complain about EVERYTHING. I didn't notice anyone dressing as for a safari; I don't really CARE how much space is between anyone; I don't care if they're wearing hats or not; I don't care where they are sitting/standing. 

 

Personally, I think it's a nice picture and I wish some posters would just shut up.

Tell me. WHERE does the nastiness lie? So far the entire photo and its subjects have been picked apart, and unsubstantiated gossip regarding the royal family has been offered. That seems nasty to me.
