Who doesn't care at all about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle?

I like the Royals and following their lives. They are part of history. And this lot is quite likable.

I may well be the only one but I am just curious. No right or wrong answer here.

You are not the only one. I don't care either. If I were a British citizen, I would be outraged at how much taxpayer money is spent on these people who don't work for a living. But, as a U.S. citizen, I am outraged about the money we spend on people related to and friends of our elected officials, who also don't work for a living, such as first ladies. At least the elected officials are accountable for doing something.

I’ve never particularly cared what the Royals do. I’ll check out her dress, the fascinators, other clothing worn by guests but that’s it.

I guess if I had a choice I would rather hear about them instead of the Kardashians.

I do respect Prince Harry for his work with injured vets through the Invictus Games and other events he supports.

But from a celebrity standpoint I couldn't really care less.

I had to google them. I see they are getting married and it's a week away. I don't think I was invited.

Maybe if I was invited I would have felt differently

I didn't get invited either.

There is in some of us an enjoyment of watching famous people. I like watching the Royal family. There is still left over in many woman, small princesses who had a crown and pretty dress they wore on Halloween.

Hollywood doesn't often have good manners. They don't live in real castles and don't have footmen and Cinderella carriages. Although the royal family does have scandals, they do it better, but that is only my opinion.

I also like that the royals don't seem to be pierced in odd places and have tattoos peeking out of their decolatage. (red line says I spelled that wrong) You get where I'm going.

I am somewhat disappointed that Harry didn't marry our granddaughter, but hey.

They do keep budding into my Facebook page but then again so do a lot of other people. It is sometimes annoying. Queen Rania's official website Her not so much. For being irritating that is.

You beat me to the same response. I know who they are but don't care. I have issues with the whole idea of "Royalty" period. I have a hard time getting star struck by anyone. Like they saying goes "they put their pants on one leg at a time just like the rest of us".

It may be a gender thing.

(Gracie...you may be in deep water now)

Actually they might have a valet do it.

Some of the royals seem quite down-to-earth when compared with some other celebrity royalty who often act very strangely.
