(1,000 posts)and they learned absolutely nothing from tormenting Diana to death, so I'd say, "too late." Edward VIII married an American divorcee and had to step down, good thing too, being a Nazi sympathizer just wasn't kosher at the time. This whole blue blood, "royal blood" thing from a genetic viewpoint was an atrocity not unlike Mengele's experiments for that "pure Aryan." From the time of George III the genetic damage of inbreeding afflicted all the Royal houses of Europe because they were all intermarried from Austrian/German Royal Houses. By the time Victoria and Albert's children were marrying every other Royal house in Europe was falling and the
Royal House of Windsor (actually Saxe-Coburg-Gotha) were left trying to be relevant. So, they married a 20 year old virgin to the most uncharming of Princes who happened to be in love with the wife of his friend. He carried on that relationship from his arranged engagement through his fake marriage, and made the girl suffer for it. Nice "Head of the Church of England" to be. Soooo, stability? Character? Class? Disney never made a Prince out of anyone like Charles the Cad and Andrew the Creeper. So, Harry, who as a child had to watch what was done to his Mother, decided as a man that his wife and child deserved better? Good on him. Nice joining this century and redefining character, family isn't what you're born to, it's what you make it.
