Trooping the Colour 2018

I am sorry that I have not posted in many weeks, but here I am, giving an overview of what happened in 2018's Trooping the Colour, which is Queen Elizabeth's birthday parade. 3 key moments were,

1. Meghan Markle's Trooping the Colour Debut.

Meghan Markle opted for a pink, off the shoulder dress with a tilted hat for her debut outfit. This was Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex's first carriage ride since her wedding. On the balcony, she stood towards the back next to Harry, and behind her new sister in law, Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, which leads me to my next key moment.

2. Princess Charlotte's Balcony Meltdown

Yes, Princess Charlotte did have a meltdown, but luckily her mom, the Duchess of Cambridge was there to help calm her down.

3. A Guard Fainted

A guard did in fact faint during the march, face planting into the ground, and was gotten out of the situation as soon as possible.

Those were, in my opinion, the three most memorable moments of the 2018 Trooping the Colour.

This is how I viewed the wedding. 4:00 am - Turned on the television. At this point, people had not started to arrive yet, and it was mainly reporters speculating about Meghan's dress. 4:30 to 5:00 am - People started to come, mainly aristocrats, Hollywood stars, and friends of Harry and Meghan, including Oprah Winfrey, Serena Williams, and Prince Harry's ex Chelsy Davy. Reporters also interviewed people who had charities that Harry and Meghan supported. Sometime after that, (I lost track of the time,) some more celebrities and aristocrats came, including the Middletons, the Beckhams and the Clooneys, as well as some more actresses. Then, the royal family began to arrive. The first royal that I saw was Zara Tindall, who is  pregnant with her second child, who is due v...

I recently went to the exhibit Costuming The Crown, at Winterthur, the estate of the du Pont family in Delaware, United States.
