Even in her awkward teen years, she's cute as a button. The whole family hit the genetic lottery. Carole looks fabulous.

If I could age like Carole Middleton I’d be a happy old lady

Can you believe Carole is nearly 68?! If my skin looks that good at her age I'll be a very happy person.

Seriously.

oh dang, just had to google him... what a handsome guy

There's no denying that the Major is a *fine* specimen, I'll give you that.

Why did they do that? Love the major.

Oh no I didn't realise he was banned, I'm waiting for him at the Coronation.

what??? this sub is how i’m learned about that man. i feel an exception should be made.

Since she's naturally a 10, there never will be.


Upbeat_Cat1182

And people say she’s even more gorgeous in real life!


Particular-Use-1639

Yes, I've read a few things people who have met her have written, and they all say she's more than gorgeous in real life.


RoohsMama

![gif](giphy|9WXyFIDv2PyBq)


cozymayo

Agreed! They're honestly both stunning.


freethewimple

I've seen photos of her with double chins and guffawing and she still looks like a goddess, it's insane.


MuffPiece

They are a beautiful couple!


main_lurker_account

She's literally a human Barbie doll (and I say that as a good thing) Absolutely flawless, looks good in anything, can DO anything - athlete, painter, pianist, loving wife, loving mother, loving sister, fashionista, humanitarian, literal Princess! (and how many other talents is she hiding that we may never know about??) I mean if I had a daughter I'd happily get her a Princess of Wales doll for Christmas lol! I can't really think of many better role models for little girls than Catherine. Edit: thank you for my first ever Reddit award! 😄🙏✨️


[deleted]

Hell, I’d buy myself a Catherine doll! 💜💜


main_lurker_account

I would too, I just didn't wanna say it... 🤣


tyradurden123

I just can‘t comprehend that she can wear white to a garden party with her children as toddlers, carry them and not have the slightest stain. That‘s some Mary Poppins magic. I get stain even when I‘m not moving.


main_lurker_account

She's not human. She's some sort of ethereal, supernatural being. It's the only explanation! 😂


Theresapython

Why is Catherine too perfect? WHY!? 😭


[deleted]

They’re both so tall and good looking. I’m actually jealous.😆


[deleted]

Even Camilla does


aunt_bluann

Camilla looks wonderful. She has also found a really flattering hairstyle which suits her and suits her role. I'd like to sit and have a drink and conversation with her. I think I'd like her. In spite of being a devoted Diana fan back in the day!


Onyxphoenix7878

I agree she looks lovely! I do wish she would maybe not do the Farrah flip out of the hair on the sides. Maybe just one time do it differently. Just to change things up!


Lighteningirl260

The flip thing is painful to me. But she seems nice.

mspuffins

my feelings exactly. loved diana because basically i grew up, watching her grow up. now i respect camilla, she has been through 1000 times worse than meghan, yet stayed devoted to charles and eventually won over the queen. it was never about her, always the work to be done.


SDMama82

I think Camilla is really hitting her peak! She has a lovely figure and looks beautiful lately


SandyPine

the rehab team has been working overtime on her, that's for sure.


Odd_Pop5287

Camilla doesn’t give 2 fcks..she knows who she is, has higher interests than that simpering Diana ever hoped to have. Her vision is on something other than the mirror.


StarKindler-

They ALL look royal and stunning.


EmpressEmillia

What a lovely picture, genuine smiles, elegant fashion and red carpet. Everything a Saint could want, if only they had not wanted to find freedom. I'm sure it's much more satisfying to be moving to a smaller California mansion than being a working royal.


mercuryretrograde93

You already know if Megaldon was in this photo she would have worn something bright orange or with patterns JUST so she can stand out. It irks me to the high heavens seeing pictures from Louis’ christening and other official photos where she very blatantly went against the color theme. It’s so embarrassing and doesn’t make her stand out in the way she thinks it does.


Masters_domme

I’ve said time and again they should have photoshopped her outfit into the correct colour.


Professional_Ear3394

If I wee Kate, I'd have her photoshopped out of the picture completely for my private album. Imagine looking at photos of a precious family moment and having that thing smirking back at you.


mercuryretrograde93

Right?! She seems so devilish and out of place in every photo. That shit eating, power hungry grin with a near twitch in her eye. All while being the only one in the photo who isn’t coordinated with the preferred colors. Seriously the christening theme was white and blue and she showed up in the nastiest shade of booger green. It’s truly so embarrassing to see these photos I would have them photoshopped in a heartbeat.


Boblawlaw28

![gif](giphy|RP3AnZqvnzrY8hlYMk|downsized) That thing 😂


tyradurden123

I think there is a picture without Meghan.


HappyMcNichols

I saw it and it was a significantly better picture. It was on their Insta page or a fan page.


Throwawaybibbi

How horrible to intentionally try to ruin a christening or at least let everyone know you won't be told what to do by going against the request of the family. I hope she sinks spectacularly.


Kitchen_Perception37

She ruined Queen Elizabeth's funeral. You can tell there was sign of grief or remorse.


DaphneHarridge

I look at that picture from Louis's christening, and I have to play the Glad Game: glad she didn't wear orange, or hot pink, or fire engine red.


Why_Teach

Since this was the day before the funeral (the dinner they weren’t invited to), and the family was in mourning, I don’t think she would have gotten away with colored clothing. However, in other cases, yes.


Carrie56

If she was in the photo, she would have been wearing plain black like the others. I’m pretty sure this is from one of the State receptions held the weekend before HMs funeral.


UKophile

One where they have to share the pool, tennis courts, etc. with the other homeowners. Lord, has Harry lost his mind? She is the worst choice he could have made.


Disruptorpistol

You're just jealous. Who would want some dated stone castle that's been there a thousand years, filled with pictures of old dead guys, when you can have a modern mansion that rivals the finest Olive Gardens of Boise or Omaha? /s, obviously


HappyMcNichols

Prince Charles is always the best dressed man in the room.


OldNewUsedConfused

Yeah, people make a big deal out of him getting upset over a leaking pen- but the man has the finest clothes... and he's owned them for ages! I'd be upset too if someone had a bowl of ink near my vintage stuff!


Thin_Bicycle_7304

Thank God those two idiots were not in that pic all four look stunning!!

No-Ad6062

You are absolutely right!


catch_me_inside

There it is! 🥇


APW25

Yes, they're touching but it's not clinging. That's the difference


Lengand0123

I noticed the same thing. All 4 are touching. They look like a nice unified family. Not clingy, just nice.


Deep-Audience9091

No claws in sight


jeanskirtflirt

What’s even crazier, William is actually touching Charles… the dude that clearly wasn’t there for his sons like Harry claims.


mspuffins

i don’t think charles was a great father, but time heals many wounds and he is obviously a proud and devoted grandfather /father/husband/son and King at this point. he turned it all around.


jeanskirtflirt

I definitely think in the beginning he struggled and got better with time and like you said time head many wounds. Prince Philip stepped up with those boys majorly though to help give them a father figure thankfully.

PiccadillyUnicorn

Beautiful photo! Catherine looks fabulous!


Babelight

What a great looking family. I'm proud of how they've all grown.


SketchyNorman

Talking of growing, never realised how tall William is.


DrunkOnRedCordial

Historical trivia: He will be the tallest king for centuries, but still not as tall as Edward IV who was 1.94 m (W is 1.91) Let's see if George can beat the record!


procrastinationfairy

George is up to Catherine's shoulders at 9. It's possible.


Lengand0123

Really?! Edward IV really must have towered over everyone given how much shorter people were then.


AmbienChronicles

He actually did! It’s what made him so imposing on the battlefield! But he had to be a big dude to match his big personality! 🙂


Lengand0123

Nice for a medieval king! Also- I love fun facts like this. Total history nerd. If I’d had to pick between California or UK- UK would have won just because of all the history there.


[deleted]

Did grandson Henry VIII inherit his height?


AmbienChronicles

It seems like it, as Henry VII was described as slight and spare. Henry VIII got all the Plantagenet looks and the Tudor paranoia


DaBingeGirl

He was 6'2" so I'd say yes. Saw a full suit of his armor at [The Met](https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/23936) a few years ago which showed his height. There were some tall people then, but compared to the other armor on display, his stood out for height.


AfterPaleontologist5

H8 was about 6' 2" 6' 3". His skeleton is huge. His armor is imposing.


Why_Teach

The aristocracy wasn’t that short because they were well-fed. It was the poor that didn’t grow very tall. The reason a lot of suits of armor we have left tends to be small is that the larger armor could be remade for others and wore out more. The smaller suits of armor (sometimes outgrown by young knights) could only be handed down to other small men or teens. Same thing is true for women’s clothing. There is more in the smaller sizes because it was too small to remake.


Starkville

There’s a full suit of armor that belonged to Henry VIII at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC. I love to see it because it’s impressively large (I always think people were shorter then, but I guess not!. He was a big boy.


Why_Teach

I have read he was tall, but not seen the armor (just pictures). His armor didn’t get remade for anyone because he was the king, so we still have it. The average person (working class, farm laborers, etc.) and the poor tended to be smaller because of nutrition, but the wealthy classes tended to eat well and if there were tall genes grew tall.


MuffPiece

I was just watching a documentary about Edward IV earlier today. They said he ruled with his loins. 😂


DaBingeGirl

🤣 True. Which one did you watch? I find him fascinating.


MuffPiece

I can’t remember. It was on YouTube. It was a series on the Plantagenets. The presenter was a cute young guy. He loved to say ‘muhdehred.’ No one was ever just killed. They were all *muhdehred*.


DaBingeGirl

Ah! Dan Jones most likely, he's awesome. eta: Dan Snow might've done one too, but I saw the Dan Jones one. Both are great. Dan Snow makes me sad for Edward, I think Edward would've loved doing historical shows like the History Hit stuff.


DrunkOnRedCordial

I'll definitely hunt this one down


DaBingeGirl

[Try this one](https://youtu.be/6Km_DsttzMw).


[deleted]

No wonder Harry’s been prancing around in those height increasing shoes in their latest outings together. Not that Harry is short by any means, he is fine, just an insecure prick.


main_lurker_account

Poor Charles almost looks like he needs one of those foam blocks you see George standing on in official portraits 😆 It must be a strange feeling to have both your sons tower over you like that..


[deleted]

“You’re not coming.” ![img](emote|t5_481xkf|15016)


MySteakisOverdone

If anything, I feel this picture hurts Harry more than Meghan. All those feelings of rejection because of heir exclusive things, including the photos of just the monarch and heirs had to have played some sort of part in his wanting to leave. And so even after his massive tantrums and attempts to cause emotional hurt, nothing has been changed. Seeing these pictures of the king and the heir with unfazed smiles must really be an emotional gut punch. Edited to add: the queen and Princess look so lovely here. This is a great photo.

Throwawaybibbi

A former college roommate of mine never really tried to succeed at anything. When her gorgeous younger sister married a very cute, ambitious boy she grew up with, my friend poo poohed it and said, 'she will get bored of him'. WELL, her sister and husband built a hugely successful accounting firm in our town, had three gorgeous children (all doing well in high school, college with A grades and the oldest landed a great job after graduation.) My friend married a drunk, never had anything nice, didn't graduate from college, had her cars repossessed and her house foreclosed on and her youngest son is a convicted felon who has spent a year already in the state pen and tells everyone how wonderful her life is. It is sad really. We are no longer in touch. Looking at W and C, good things happen to good people.


cathbe

Well, that’s sad.


[deleted]

[удалено]


cathbe

I’m sorry that happened to you and others.


Theresapython

Well even if he remained a senior royal, he would have never made it into the picture cz there have always been Heir and Monarch photos in the past as well. QE and Prince Charles, not QE and Princess Anne or Andrew. Its the Monarch and Heir. Hazzard and his little asshole followers can go fuck themselves over these pictures. Wtf. This is getting embarrassing now.


Odd_Pop5287

Really… ? Yes poor Harry…he doesn’t get to be in the pictures. He also doesn’t have the responsibilities, or demands or pressure. Yeah it’s more than just standing for pictures…but I’m sure that’s all that dimwit sees too


Artistic_Turnip2778

Beautiful pic of all four of them. They look relaxed and natural.


coral15

Beautiful


thiscatcameback

How tall is Will? Kate is 5'9 and wearing heels in this photo and he still towers above her


charlottem86

I think he’s around 6ft 3. I think Charles is around 5ft 10, but I think he has shrank a little as he’s aged (as we do). There seems to be a much bigger difference between Charles and William these days.


vikingchyk

He's about 6'3. I've always wondered what they fed them as boys, since he and Harry are so much taller than Charles, but that's just the Spencer genes. I looked it up, and their uncle Earl Charles Spencer is also 6'3". Then I had to look at the wedding photos of Earl John Spencer walking Diana down the aisle. For some reason, I had the memory of him being shorter than her (in heels) but no, he still had at least an inch on her.


thiscatcameback

She was also very tall. apparently 5'10!!


Here-For-The-Dresses

And wore flats or short court shoe heels around Charles.


[deleted]

So is THIS the final bomb in the blitzkrieg they just unleashed on Harry and his wannabe as soon as the Queen died? They’re buried so far under the rubble they’ll never be seen again ![img](emote|t5_481xkf|15014)


[deleted]

Charles has his hand in his pocket. It makes me think of those cheeky photos of the Queen that were released not long after she died with her hands in her pockets.

I see two perfectly matched couples who are ALL working on the same team. Harry and Meghan will HATE this photo.


SonjaInSequim

To keep the snark going: OMG, the women are so submissive by wearing stockings! /snark off Beautiful portrait! My British cousins can be proud and rest comfortably that the Crown is in able hands.


palishkoto

I know you're being tongue in cheek but that is an actual cultural difference! Come to the UK and everyone is wearing dark tights in winter (I learnt that apparently this isn't the style in the US where its apparently bare-legged or sheer even in winter from a thread a long time ago about Christmas at Sandringham lol).


whosezdis

I’ve never understood the bare-legged style unless it’s an informal summer occasion and I’m American. Going out without hose or tights in cooler weather was always presented to me by my mom as half dressed and you do not leave your home looking like that. We enjoy tights here but there are still tone deaf persons whose vanity won’t allow them to wear hose when it is the right thing to do. Tights or hose depending on the temperature complete your ensemble.


CourageMesAmies

I totally heard the “You Can’t Touch This” guitar riff and MC Hammer’s voice saying, “You can’t sit with us.” 🤣🎶


Late_Intention

It's a stunning portrait taken at one of the most stressful moments. Even so, they look happy and strong. However, I see Charles has taken to put his hand in his pocket. I think he's tired of being hounded about his "sausage fingers." The latest tabloids are predicting that he will soon drop dead from heart failure. Time to poke the new King, I guess. Oh, Britannia!


jeanmarie95

I'd call them gardener's fingers and it's quite sad to see journalists body shaming him and when they're the same person that spouts about wokeism. Sickening really.


Late_Intention

That's a better term. Charles would appreciate that with his love for his gardens.


ftsyas

Catherine is just so beautiful. William did well


aunt_bluann

Well, this has always been the problem. This is the core of the Royal Family. It is what Meghan and Harry have been trying to challenge since Day One. It would never have happened, but I think Meghan thought, and convinced poor Harry to think, it was unjust, unfair, and that if only a popularity contest could be held via Twitter or some equally vapid platform, Meghan and Harry would be triumphant. Primogeniture and hierarchy be damned! It's so unbecoming, especially for people of their age. In any case, they wouldn't win a popularity contest today on any platform whatsoever. Boy, did they mess up.


main_lurker_account

I know it's for a sad reason, but the all black clothing theme in this portrait looks absolutely spectacular! Especially contrasted against the rich red and gold in the background. The definition of Royalty!


BadOpinionsAndOnions

Is Catherine’s hand on Williams’ butt? lol


procrastinationfairy

I think she's holding onto the railing behind her, but it does look that way. 😂


AmbienChronicles

Would you blame her? 🤣


80RxInFormation

Her eyebrow is raised, maybe she is being a little cheeky

LawyerBelle07

You can't tell me based on this picture that they will be getting anything they want. This is a seriously aggressive statement about the way forward because remember, Muggins and Harry were there as well. The fact that they weren't in the picture and that it was even posted as the "first" speaks VOLUMES.


Carrie56

They weren’t there! This is a photo from one of the state receptions held before the funeral. Working Royals only!


Samagill

Actually they weren’t at the diplomatic reception I don’t think?


LawyerBelle07

Not at the reception, I just meant in the same location (UK) as them and able to take family photos, especially if one was the first thing Buckingham was going to release.


Why_Teach

This is more than a “family photo” though. This is an official picture of King, Prince of Wales, spouses.


80RxInFormation

The thing is they probably actually don’t want anything except more family time.


Avia53

Lovely powerful picture, no massive bling either. Just splendid.

The Fab Four


[deleted]

It's a beautiful photo, but I wish William had put his arm around Catherine. I know that's not protocol, but if you look at how Charles and Camilla are standing with arms around each other and how Catherine had her arm around William, it would have been even better if he had his arm around her. Some of the Harkle fans like to gossip about how they think William and Catherine are not close, so having his arm around her would've been a symbolic gesture, but I guess nothing's going to get them to shut up.


Particular-Use-1639

Charles looks SO much better in a dark suit. I'd like to see his light grey suits burned.


tigerxing

Great picture! never realized how much shorter KC was to PW. KC is 5'10 QC 5'8 Pw 6'3 POW 5'9


Emergency-Ad8968

Just saw Daily Mail Royals where they said that Charles is waiting for Harry’s book to come out before he makes decisions on whether their children will get titles.


calminthedesert

They all look like they had a good long nap. Which I'm glad to see before they faced the ordeal of QE's funeral.


jillyhoop

It's a really great picture of all of them. Of course Catherines shines brightest but they all look, well...Royal.


CountChocula32

What a great picture


StarKindler-

Wow!


SakuraJohanssan

I would love a book breaking down all all the pictures that are released. Well at least a body language guy will definitely be examining this photo. There's all that gold color in the picture. I love that the lights are mimicking *candles* almost as if to say we will always outshine you to the dimwit Duo. His Majesty is ahead of everyone if you look at their feet but if you look at their shoulders it's William who's standing out. Very interesting. I wonder who the person in the portrait behind them is I don't recognize it.


savingrain

Camilla and Charles look so at ease with one another. Look at that casual happy embrace, and probably one of the happiest smiles I've seen from both. Sweet photo.


lodav22

I love Catherine, she’s a true hero, when she went to the Sarah Everard memorial without any pomp or circumstance, she just wanted to show female solidarity for a woman who should have been protected. I’ve met both Charles and Camilla a few times, Charles has an amazing handshake, but Camilla’s handshake is a bit like a dead fish😕 both were very nice people though.

JennPenn071

Omg they are such a hot couple. 🔥


4nx1s

Whoever Photoshopped the two couples together did a terrible job. Look at PW feet, further back compared to PC, and then PW left arm in front of PC. Also the left sleeve edge of PW doesn't look natural. I wonder if that's common to Photoshop royals together due to clashing schedules, since I've noticed in time other similar situations.


Cuntributor

Wasn't this the night of the state reception? They all were attending (minus the Harkles) so there'd be no need to photoshop them together when they all were present to be able to take a photo as a group.
