I was going to say something unkind, but upon reflection, I decided to limit my unkindness to the following:
It appears that the infusion of blood from the Spencer line has indeed improved the breed of the Hanoverian house Battenburg. Young William seems to be a fine young man, of even notable character, and he has the advantage of resembling his mother, rather than the inbred buffoon that is his genetic father.
Regarding the House Battenburg (lately changed to “Windsor” when Britain went to war with Eddie’s cousin Willi, on account of the huge upswell in England of anti German sentiment following the destruction of the BEF in the 1915 Battle of the Marne), I have always reserved the greatest dislike of these Germans, but especially I detest George III, whom my ancestors fought and defeated in the last quarter of the 18th century to found a republic on these shores.

As far as the wedding ring controversy, I am altogether neutral.
