Flip through the latest issue of Gulf Weekly.
It seems the oh so blissfully happy coupling of Prince William and Kate Middleton is not so oh so blissfully happy after all.
Pressure from the unrelenting Press and the fact that William seems more interested in going drinking with his military pals then spending time with Kate are said to be to blame.
Though I can’t ever see myself voting to abolish the monarchy I wouldn’t really call myself a royalist either but I have to admit I did kind of buy in to the whole handsome couple future Mr & Mrs King fairytale ending for the two of them so it was kind of sad to see that may not come to fruition.
Just as well then that I was cheered up by the ludicrously funny announcement that bookies back in dear old Blighty were soon taking bet as to whom Prince William was likely to walk down the aisle with.
It seems that Britney Spears & Kylie Minogue are front-runners in the race.
Very shrewd indeed from the book-makers point of view when you take into consideration the 0.0000001 per cent chance that they might have to pay out on such an absurd bet but the worrying thing about all of this is the fact that there are people in England thick enough to actually put money on it.
I mean honestly, does it really seem likely that a member of the royal family is going to swap marriage vows with someone as obviously tasteless as Britney?
I think even your most hardened anti-royalist might balk at the mere thought of it!
