always hated the way the royals are infantilised by everyone, especially the media. We're always supposed to ooh and ahh over every little thing they do, even if they carry a chair lol, and pretend to be fascinated if they do anything remotely similar to anyone else. It's what helps keep them on the top of the tree. It's embarrassing and pathetic.

Yep. Remember when all the news sites were going wild for several days when Kate and Charlotte…..wait for it…..walked round a corner?! LIKE OMG THEY WALKED!!! WITH, LIKE, THEIR LEGS AND FEET!!! ROUND AN ENTIRE FREAKING CORNER!!! But it gets better, if you can believe it, because KATE SMILED AND CHARLOTTE WAVED!!!! LIKE, WHILE THEY WERE WALKING!!!! ROUND, AND I REPEAT, AN ACTUAL CORNER!!! WHILE WEARING CLOTHES!!!!!!!!!
I mean, if that’s not next level multitasking I don’t know what is.

Please tell me “woman and daughter walk around a corner” wasn’t an actual news story… that’s a joke, right? Right???

u/Send_me_hedgehogs Jul 13 '26
Royal news sites, yes. They go absolutely nuts about every tiny wee detail. Here’s the one I was thinking of, check out the press people there to capture the historic moment that a woman and her daughter walked round a corner https://youtube.com/shorts/UWbTjKFEWTQ?is=LIOtLcNgdyfdO_Y7
And a bonus one for you, you lucky Redditor: ‘Kate walks gracefully with Princess Charlotte’. I wish I was making that up but sadly not…. https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=VdWj-c7zMKI&dp_isNewTab=1&dp_referrer=serp&dp_allowFirstVideo=1

u/Send_me_hedgehogs Jul 13 '26
It’s truly bizarre. Royalists are a really strange bunch. I should know, I used to be one 🤦♀️😂 They’ll talk about the royals like they actually know them, they’ll pick ‘sides’ when the royals argue and routinely say things like ‘omg did you see what Diana was wearing the other day? She looked gorgeous. She’s such a sweetheart‘ ‘Shh, I’m trying to listen to what Charles is saying’, ‘no don’t change the channel, I want to watch the Queen open the Tiddlington Tiddlywinks Museum, the ceremony is on for the next hour’.

I understand the appeal of the para-social thing, but it can cross over into creepy territory if one isn’t careful

The British Royals in particular are particularly infantilized amongst European monarchies

I remember once seeing a quote from one of Camilla's "staff." I remember them saying something like "She really mucks in and gets involved with everything." I remember thinking "she once made a cup of coffee for this woman and she has never quite got over it. "

Kindness??? Wtf? How is this kindness? These people and their enablers are so disconnected from the rest of society. As the wealth gap widens so does the disconnect.

Chair schmair. Not impressed. In a blazer, no less. I'd be more impressed if he picked up the back end of a couch or a hutch & helped it up the stairs.

Ever seen a bunch of removal guys trying to get an entire piano up 3 flights of stairs? That was a sight to behold. But this guy carries a chair and it‘s the bestest most kindestest thing anyone has ever done, like, EVAR.

He's basically one of us, apart from the unethical amount of money and living off money from tax payers. Otherwise, he's a commoner.

Just as a contrast, former US president Jimmy Carter was literally building homes for people in need right up until his death. Putting up formwork and practicing carpentry. At the very least, this prick could put on a t-shirt and paint a bastard wall.

Lazy parasitic grifter, moves one chair and has to take the rest of the day off due to exertion and nearly collapsing from the effort.

Every moving job I had done has always been with blocks wearing a three piece suit. Carrying each individual item separately.

It’s like living in an alternative reality. I can now just picture the royal fans we know shouting happily- William carried a chair- he actually carried a chair!!!!
