“The comments on this story make me so proud to be British! If you don't like it, leave. There are plenty off immigrants who would love to have British citizenship and such a hard working Royal Family.”

“Chinless parasite in spawning another chinless parasite SHOCKER. The nation struggles to express it's apathy suitably.
I wonder if this one will be ginger. After all ginger genes run in Will's family. Well, his mum's family. And James Hewitts family strangely. But not Prince Charles family, even more strangely.”
