Hey, remember when that spoiled rich brat William got married to a slightly-less-super-rich woman named Kate in a ridiculously over-the-top wedding and everyone acted like it was some cute fairy tale?
Well, a while ago, they found the skeleton of one of the people that William's ancestors had to murder in order to become all royal and distinguished.
"...There was also evidence of humiliation injuries, including a pelvic wound likely to have been caused by an upward thrust of a weapon, through the buttock."
That's right, William's ancestor Henry got on the throne by shoving swords into people's buttocks (note: this isn't the rapist serial killer Henry, it's his dad).
Poor Richard III.
Lol.
I wouldn't blame him.
It was necessary those times. If Henry hadn't killed him, he would have killed Henry.

I have never understood the fascination that people have with royalty and in the modern age with 'celebrities'. They have gotten there because of the family they were born into, not because of anything they themselves have achieved.
I don't know who is worse, these people or the people who pedestalise them

The requirements for ruling England were always to be the toughest and most ruthless of the men claiming the throne. Nowdays the Royals are more of a throwback to when we as a nation were relevent I feel. Though I do wonder what the legal standing of somebody with a legitimate bloodline attempting to overthrow the crown would be today?
