A Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes

While we here at ATG do subscribe to the theory that it’s best not to discuss politics or religion with your friends – at least friends you intend on keeping – and that an entertainment blog is the last place to bring up either, there’s been some late-breaking, life-altering news that must be shared! Although this news could be filed under “religiousy” (if that was a real word), it is actually much more about the British royal family, the Sweet Ginger Prince, and, most specifically, one girl’s dream to conquer both.

Who's excited about a new royal addition?! No, not a baby. An American princess!

Sounds like changes may be afoot for the world’s most overpublicized royals. The World Wide Web is abuzz with the news that British Prime Minister David Cameron has proposed a few legal reforms; reforms that would essentially abolish several antiquated laws dating back to the 17^th century. What does this mean for us? A couple things, actually.

First, it means that, should Waity double up on her helpings of kidney pie and black pudding and actually gain a pound – or twenty – and, should said weight-gain result in a long-anticipated pregnancy for the Duke and Duchess, and, should said baby be a girl, the little queen could very possibly rule over all the lands (eventually). As it stands now, it’s the first son who gets that honor and not the first born. Of course, unless you’re planning to be reincarnated as Waity’s progeny, this first change won’t affect your life much.

 

What could have an impact, however, is my second piece of good news. Up until now, the heir to the British throne could marry a Buddhist. He could marry a Muslim. He could even marry an atheist. He could not, however, marry a Catholic—one more thing we can blame on Henry VIII. It perhaps had something to do with the bad blood and mass murdering that has taken place between Protestants and Catholics throughout the years. But, under Prime Minister Cameron’s proposal, this too would be thrown out; which means, ladies, that our St. Jude novenas are on their way to being answered!

Not only would Prince Harry be able to marry a nice, Catholic girl, but he wouldn’t even have to abdicate; meaning, that a nice, Catholic girl could someday be a nice, Catholic princess. (Of course, whether Prince Harry is interested in nice girls of any denomination is another topic entirely.)

Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some glass slippers to go Windex.
