So cute! Are they Cocker Spaniels?

Cavalier King Charles Spaniel or King Charles

What is difference between King Charles and Cavalier King Charles?
King Charles Spaniel - Wikipedia
The Cavalier is slightly larger, with a flat head and a longer nose, while the King Charles is smaller, with a domed head and a flat face. Historically the breeds that were merged into the King Charles Spaniel were used for hunting; due to their stature they were not well suited.

EXCLUSIVE: Charles's sorrow at Harry's disappearing act: How 'genuinely disappointed' King raised poignant toast to grandson Archie 'wherever you are' at post-Coronation buffet - despite Prince having already left
Daily Mail, May 7, 2023

The King raised a glass to toast the fourth birthday of Prince Harry’s son Archie at Buckingham Palace yesterday in a moving to tribute to the grandson he has barely seen.

Despite the ongoing acrimony with Harry, who was on a plane back to the US within hours of his father being crowned, emotional Charles made a point of mentioning his absent grandchildren as well as those present on his big day.

The poignant moment came at a private family gathering at the palace following his Westminster Abbey crowning and appearance on the balcony with Queen Camilla.

It is understood that an invitation had been politely extended to Harry to join the family lunch but he decided to return to California to celebrate Archie’s big day.

His wife, Meghan, stayed behind with their son and daughter Lilibet, and was said to be organising a small party for family and friends.

A well-placed source said that, while most members of the Royal Family ‘breathed a sigh of relief’ that Harry didn’t join them, the King, 74, seemed ‘genuinely quite disappointed that he didn’t stay’.

Aww..  we lost our English Bulldog Boogie last year too.  She was 14, and we still haven't gotten over it.

Within a year, we think we'll be going the Frenchie route.  Boogie was 80 pounds, and was heck getting her in and out of the truck.  And was heck on my back.    When we get one, I want one like Gutfeld has.....



(and sorry for the thread hijack)

The night before the coronation, while there was a reception for visiting dignitaries at the palace, there was also a family dinner at a local restaurant.

Anne, Andrew, Edward and their families were in attendance, cousins and out-of-town friends, too.  Harry was invited, and declined to attend this, too.

I don't want any more bit#@ing from Harry.  Ever.

   Prince William and wife Kate Middleton made an unexpected appearance Sunday as they prepared for King Charles' coronation concert.

The Prince and Princess of Wales surprised a group of locals who had gathered for a Big Lunch – a street picnic intended to bring United Kingdom communities together in celebration.

Appearing at the Long Walk outside Windsor Castle, Kate wore a casual look. The princess paired a light blue blazer with a white top and black pants while William donned a navy blue suit.

Princess Kate's dressed-down look was completed with white sneakers.

Coronation style! Celebrity stylist MIRANDA HOLDER gives her verdict on the royal ensembles
Daily Mail, May 7, 2023

The Princess of Wales

Although Kate looked breathtakingly beautiful at the event, this was not really her moment to shine on the style front and she gracefully stepped back, allowing full focus to be on the newly crowned King and Queen.

Despite Kate’s demure approach, I can’t help but get excited about her honouring her favourite British designer who without fail gives us a masterclass in fashion in its purest original essence - as an artform - every time, wearing that glorious gown with such grace and beauty whilst always making it look effortless.

Kate fused ancient tradition with the modern world perfectly, keeping her signature style consistent even at the most momentous of occasions.

The ingenious bespoke headpiece, that stunning halo of silver leaves, which was another fashion Royal first, together with her simple but striking couture gown, topped with her patriotic garter robes made it a true fashion moment for Kate.




Zara Tindall

Zara looked as if she was off to a wedding, stepping out in a feminine pale blue coat dress with coordinating shoes, hat and bag.

The ensemble was more feminine and softer than many of Zara’s previous formal occasion looks and somehow felt very grown up.

Perhaps the Princess has finally settled on a ‘signature style’ - a style hack that has worked wonders for the late Queen, Camilla and of course Kate.




Queen Camilla 

Camilla looked nervous but resplendent sitting beside her husband in the carriage, the first glimpse of her gown showed a white fabric embellished with silver embroidery, with her robe of state nestled over her shoulders.

The gold embroidery looking glorious against the ornate gold of the State carriage.. The neckline was the perfect depth to showcase the magnificent Coronation necklace which was made for Queen Victoria has been traditionally worn at every coronation by the Queen ever since.

The Queen looked nothing short of magnificent, the full length gown sitting perfectly on her frame, her added height being 5 ft 7 creating a vision that was positively statuesque.

The almost full length central pleat that extends down the front of the garment adding flattering elongation and just a little bit of drama.




Princess Eugenie

Eugenie, proudly nursing her ever-growing baby bump looked understated in head to toe navy, again opting for the ever-chic monochrome option.

The look, despite the smock dress, long coat and glittering diamonds felt a little severe, aged the Princess and on the fashion front left me cold.

Kate still outdid the Queen.  She looked stunning and in particular I loved the headpiece.

That's a cheese and pickle sandwich, First Lady! Jill Biden inspects sarnie at Rishi Sunak's big lunch - as PM throws lavish Downing Street banquet (with £3,000 worth of crockery) to celebrate King's Coronation
Daily Mail, May 7, 2023

The beloved cheese and pickle sandwich is a core staple amongst many British picnics - and is bound to have played a starring role in the thousands of street parties that took place across the country today to celebrate King Charles' coronation.

A family favourite amongst many Britons, the sandwich made up of Branston Pickle spread on a white loaf with a hefty amount of cheddar, is loved by many, hated by few, including it seems the First Lady Jill Biden.

President Joe Biden's wife was today caught on camera looking less than impressed as she inspected the  classic lunchtime meal at Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's coronation lunch today.

Mrs Biden seemed sceptical as she examined the British classic during the street party held at Downing Street earlier today.

The Sunaks laid out approximately £3,000 worth of Emma Bridgewater crockery for the First Lady and their other guests. Mr Sunak's wife, Akshata Murty, the heiress of an Indian billionaire, has an apparent fondness of luxury pottery. Last summer during the leadership race she served tea to waiting press in mugs sold for £38 each.

The celebration at No 10 is among the thousands of street parties being held across the country today as people gather together for the Coronation Big Lunch.

She has a rotten soul, and it simply keeps seeping through her skin, so she is a fundamentally ugly person, no matter what she decks herself out with.

One big party for the new King! Millions of Brits hold Coronation lunches in honour of Charles with mile-long tables, paper crowns and streets decked in bunting (plus plenty of cakes and quiche)
Daily Mail, May 7, 2023

Millions of Brits are holding Coronation banquets across the UK in honour of King Charles III with mile-long tables,  paper crowns and streets lined with bunting. 

Royal fans across the country have shared pictures of British flag-decked tables as communities come together to honour the historic event with fancy cakes and quiches.

Guests have also filled Downing Street for the lunch, and there was a hum of excited chatter as those invited - including volunteers, Ukrainian refugees and youth group members - sipped fruit drinks and took photos in front of the famous Number 10 door as they awaited the arrival of Rishi Sunak.

The street was bedecked in Union flag bunting and music was being played by the RAF Northolt brass quintet. Mr Sunak and Akshata Murty are hosting the event as part of the Big Lunch celebrations taking place across the country over the coronation weekend.

Elsewhere, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh have attended a big lunch in Cranleigh, the Princess Royal and Vice Admiral Sir Tim Laurence have joined a community street party in Swindon, and Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie are taking part in a big lunch in Windsor.

I've often said the best thing to happen for Jill Biden was the face mask. ----  It was her best camouflage.   

[libertybele]

Those pics show her age. That's for sure.

Yes, she's 71, wrinkle lines come with age.  With her $$ she could afford a facelift and some Botox, but I sure wouldn't want to go through all of that.

Such loyalty to the British Royals for so many to celebrate tradition.

In comparison it sure seems that we are losing our patriotism.  I believe it's due to lack of faith in our government and for the huge influx of ILLEGALS who don't care to assimilate nor do they want to honor this country.
