I am not keen on meeting any of them, but if I had to be stuck in an elevator with one of them it would probably be Charles.  I think he's very intelligent and would probably be interesting to chat with.

Honestly I just do not understand what any of them are held in any high regard at all They are not special to me at all.  I just do not get IT.  Never will.

@SeaMaiden I don't have to like or admire someone to be interested in them.  I have read books by and about all the first ladies and presidents since Eisenhower, and many before for example.

I have an interest in the Royal Family because of their history, their historical importance and influence, those whom they have met, the circumstances in which they have been involved and critical to over the years, their holdings, their traditional clothing and ceremonies, the things they have seen and done, and the role they play in world events today and the history they convey.

I like to see the parades, ceremonies, dinners, cars and royal trappings like the crowns and the jewels.

And then there are the family highs and lows and dramas, just like the ones we read about here every day and take an interest in about people we don't know.

It's like...

"How did you become a Prince/Princess?

Did you graduate from college working 3 jobs to pay your

way through school? 
No

Did you start working right out of school, working long hours to

your way up to the top?

No

So how did you become a a Prince/Princess?

Well....Dad got Mom drunk and well....you know...."

Literally zero skill.

I'm sitting, visiting, with my 69 year old Aunt, who, is still in assisted living,after hip replacements. 

I asked the question; she thought, me asking, was a  funny coincidence. She, had recently finished reading an article, about the princes wives. 

The article pointed out, in the not so diStant past, none of the three, would have been acceptable, especially, for a direct heir. 

Camilla, a divorcée. Kate, had a "past", and had lived with 

 William, pre marriage. 

And Meghan😈heaven  help us, divorced, an American🙃, came from show business, 🧐and ahem, of questionable lineage! 

My aunt said she'd absolutely love to sit down with the three of  them, have some down and gritty, "girl talk", about how they caught, their princes, and was it worth the effort ?😄
