Let me see if I’ve got this right: The Queen wants Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge, to lower her hem lines. They’re too short, sayeth the English monarch.
Royal Limbs
I like the Queen. Got nothing against her. But take a look at this photo (right) of Kate, snapped as the wind in Calgary, Canada, lifted the hem of her dress. Is that not as pretty a pair of legs as you’ve seen in a month of Sundays? Never mind that the wind almost flashed a royal tush — I guarantee you that this photo won more friends for the Crown than a million-dollar PR campaign could have.
Some of the stories, which were all over the Internet yesterday, even said that Queen Elizabeth had “ordered” Kate to wear longer dresses and skirts.
If true, all I can say is: Lighten up, Liz. There is such a thing as being a royal pain, you know.
Hey, you don’t hear her husband, your grandson William, complaining, do you?
Bet not.
Your Highness “ordered” her to lower her hems?
No wonder you Brits lost the Colonies.
Jeez!
