To this day I’m still really sorry Princess Margaret did not have permission to marry the man she loved. Things for her would have been very different I think ......
@@tracy_en6372 I mean, had she done that she would have lost her title, the title she was born with...she was put in a position to reject her entire life it wasn’t fair..but it was the rule ..
@@anneramones2923 well if she married a rich man, she would live well too. It's not "not fair". It's the fact that when you are Royal, you cannot have your cake and eat it too. Duty goes hand in hand to the privilege your born with.
Long live the Queen! I was reminded of my oath to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Her Heirs, and Successors, through self-reflection and decided to watch this video. This is the oath I took on 28 October 2009 and I still hold it close to my heart to this very day, despite my Honorable Release on 20 November 2014 from the Canadian Armed Forces as a Corporal. Oath of Allegiance, "I do solemnly, and truly declare and affirm that I will be faithful and bear true allegiance to Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Her Heirs, and Successors, and that I will, as in duty bound, honestly and faithfully defend Her Majesty, Her Heirs and Successors, in Person, Crown and Dignity against all enemies, and will observe and obey all orders of Her Majesty, Her Heirs and Successors, and of the (admirals / generals/ air officers) and officers set over me".
Yeah? BULLSHIT! He still gave it up didnt he? His EGO got over it real quick didnt it If you dont really love her, youll learn to love her. Male ego my ass.
"The most experienced plaque unveiler in the world. " that says it all. Respect, Prince Philip for supporting the Queen over such a long time. Rest in peace, Duke of Edinburgh. 🌹
The Queen & Prince Philip's lives of service should remind everyone of the huge, tangible power for peace and stability the British monarchy is for everyone in Britain, the commonwealth and for the world. If there are many reasons England, Wales, Scotland, Canada and Australia, have had no civil war since Culloden in 1746, having a constitutional monarchy is an important one. In the 19th & 20th centuries the U.S.A, France, Germany, Italy, Spain and Greece suffered various civil wars, political storms, and dictatorships. This shows what can go wrong in the absence of a stable constitutional monarchy that is above politics, which helps keep the peace. The Queen & Prince Philip had their failings as parents. Prince Philip could be tactless. Whatever mistakes he and his family have made, let us be grateful for the service he gave, and the difference the monarchy makes for the better, in everybody's lives.

Because being a dysfunctional MARRIED WITH CHILDREN type family wasnt in vogue yet back then. Times are different now. Now its ok to be divorced and remarried. Fuck around on each other. Be a bum. A Dope fiend. Party animal. Have special need family members. Be an inter racial couple. etc. Nothing romantic about any of it. Just that people like Bullshit. Anything Bullshit sells. Bullshit makes the Earth spin.
Who else would you have sent? Katie is a fine journalist...I know that you are probably a royalist...and I have nothing against the Royal Family...But let's just say this isn't exactly hard-hitting news, worthy of hard-hitting journalists. Katie is quite adequate.
Wow. Elizabeth wasn't a bad-looking young woman as insinuated by Johnny Carson just b4 he "retired" from The Tonight Show. But when one considers she makes 360 million dollars every 24-hour period in INTEREST INCOME, it's an outrage. This woman alone could end world hunger in (1) year, just off her interest income. Yikes!
2dasimmons Please share your research with us. I'm sure we'd all be enriched by the findings. If you haven't good sources, however, please do polite society a favour and keep your mouth closed.
Elizabeth was/is naturally beautiful. And I don't know what you're talking about, Johnny Carson talked about how she could retire whenever she wanted to. He didn't mention anything about her looks!!
Johnny Carson said the royals finally got someone who was "kinda cute" looking in Princess Diana which was an achievement since Elizabeth and her sister, et al weren't known for being good-looking. Carson was just being honest, he wasn't trying to be mean. Shortly after that he retired..
Couric is revolting & not up to the job. Her offensive voice ruins this otherwise decent video. She should have gotten the hang of pronouncing Buckingham Palace correctly, she said it often enough. No wonder Americans are scoffed!

@@morrisoniice But it isn’t fair because other most royals didn’t have to choose between love or their title. Queen Elizabeth is a perfect example.
Prince Philip took Elizabeth and Margaret's jacket. What a gentleman! Guys don't ever do that here in America.
Back in the 40's/50's when that video was shot they sure did.
God save the Queen, Thank you for your life of service.
That took a dark turn, went from Queen (Princess) Elizabeth's Fairytale with Philip, to the depressing sorry of Margaret's love life! 😢

@@iqbalbhayangkara3816 Thank you.
I swore an oath to the Queen when I joined the Cubs.
Telling your younger sister she can't marry the guy she loves?
Why does frozen ring a bell.
sailormoonserenity99 lol but this one was different. Elsa told Anna that she cant marry cause she doesnt believe that its love at forst sight.
It had to do with the rules of the time.
Yes she could. She had to give up her title and and its benefits. I what? Thanks Pete, it was real. CYA!
Thing is I do not think she should have had to give that up. She wasn't even in line for the throne.
British people are weird they can't due to the marriage act of 1784 I think
You give to much credit to Mountbatten -- she met Philip, fell in love without any prodding from anyone. She determined to marry him on her own.
Aww she was cute & he was handsome :)
Princess Margaret was so beautiful. But Queen Elizabeth sure was sweet.
Hi Queen, you rock.
Norman did a good job with the dresses.
William is SO handsome
Well, I would love to give up all my career if I'm marrying QUEEN of ENGLAND. You literally on top of the world. The highest level of all lol
Grammatical Erorr you’d think, rite? Male ego is tricky, it was a different time.
Yeah? BULLSHIT! He still gave it up didnt he? His EGO got over it real quick didnt it If you dont really love her, youll learn to love her. Male ego my ass.

Prince Harry looks a lot like his grandfather Phillip.
I wish I was able to see any Windsor in him .....
Katie Couric is one of my all time favourite presenters Oh and I am English !!!
Rip Philip 😭🙏🏽🙏🏽😔😔😔❤️❤️
I know THAT! You'd think a royal correspondent wouldn't get a word like 'occupied' wrong though!
RIP
Having said that, seeing as he's a royal correspondent, we should probably now officially recognise the word 'occupated' and bung it in the O.E.D.
Ideal couple goals
Nick It's a common colloquialism and grammatically incorrect for the word occupied.
What is happening at 1:41
5:16 Townsend looks just like Prince Charles when he was young. Kind creepy.
No, he does not. And nothing creepy. Good grief! Stop looking for things that aren't there.
Yes i agree....i felt the same
💖💖💖👑👑👑
RIP Prince Philip
First few seasons of THE CROWN rule!!!! Claire Foy!!!!!!
So does his cousin Peter Phillips.
It was an arranged marriage because Mountbatten knew that most available princes were German. Which was out of the question.
So he said if she doesn't marry his nephew who else can she marry.
poodtang1 The queen was mad about him.
Far away from arranged.
Why are they making this sound like fairytale? I'm pretty sure that real-life wasn't as story-gripping as what they're telling in the video. Smh.
eTHEREAL. Sometimes fairytales can be real
Because being a dysfunctional MARRIED WITH CHILDREN type family wasnt in vogue yet back then. Times are different now. Now its ok to be divorced and remarried. Fuck around on each other. Be a bum. A Dope fiend. Party animal. Have special need family members. Be an inter racial couple. etc. Nothing romantic about any of it. Just that people like Bullshit. Anything Bullshit sells. Bullshit makes the Earth spin.
@@A_10_PaAng_111 interracial couples are bullshit? Wow. I hope you havent raised children who are just like you.
Prince William looks like Prince Philip.
I think you give Mounbatten too much credit.
I don't think so.

2:51 --- do you see how Elizabeth did that little attention getting trick? Can't have wandering eye's. Smart gal.
Oh no, I'm being scammed out of 60-odd pence per year...
Is 'Occupated' even a word?!?!?!
💕💕💕💕💕✌🏽
💕💕💕💕💕✌🏽
🥰
They didn’t mention townsend knew Margaret when she was a minor.
I should also be paid to talk nice about them
It sounds like they’re saying “fuckingham palace”
Ydooooooop

LOOOOOOOOOOL
I laughed out loud.
Wtf that means prince philip is related to India too
ADITYA SANTHOSH india?
On behalf of the United States we apologize for sending Katie Couric to do this special.
ghayath2011. No apologies needed. She did a good job.
Okay so she doesn’t let her sister Margaret marry a divorced man but let’s her son Charles marry a divorced woman???
Because it’s wrong for a woman to stipulate a man’s choices but not Vice versa in their weird, archaic world of principles
Times have changed. Princess Margaret wasn't the throne inheritant, Prince Charles is.
They are cousin like sane great granny this is disgusting
London Scott Great great grandmother. Not unusual in aristocratic families. I am related to my wife through a marriage in 1612.
Dashing? Lol
Google Lord Plunket and Lord Porchester.
This is all just for people... this is ridiculous
" Ridiculous " in which way ?
E Z
I agree Katie is awful
Poor Princess Margaret. How
About old boot face Camilla 🤦♀️
Sorry you don't speak for this American citizen.
Pure evil
Елизабе и Елизавета это Гитлера мама Ешо домработница
