You bet I’m scoffing! 😂 The Queen only goes to 1) church weddings for 2) members of her family. If she didn’t attend her son Charles’ wedding to Camilla because it wasn’t in a church, she is NOT going to a wedding at some random mansion with a bunch of celebrities.

He hadn’t eaten in 2 days, he said. He asked if he could have some of my food.
He wasn’t asking for money. He was asking for something to EAT.
I gave him the bag.
