I’m still not used to the cumbersome British royal family name, Mountbatten-Windsor, but I’m at least glad there’s at least some consequences for association with Epstein, even if it is relatively small.
I assume you will be delighted to learn that “Windsor” actually is just a cover name for Saxe-Coburg and Gotha because in 1917 having a German house on the British throne didn’t seem right.
Edit: Totally forgot that Mountbatten is also just a German housename in disguise.
Yes but Mountbatten is anglicization of Battenburg, not Glücksburg. All those branches are intertwined, of course.
* Battenberg
Berg = mountain
Burg = castle
I, too, have watched The Crown 😜
You have? Cause I haven’t.
You should, it’s pretty good. There’s an explicit point and a few scenes about the decision to switch their last name to a non-German one
So, England has “rules” but the “rich” don’t have to follow them.
UK kicked a guy out of the royal family for their relationship with Epstein.
America put a guy in the Whitehouse.
I don’t think Andrew, or Mandleson, faced enough for what they’d done but America proves than the UK could have done less.
Yep. That’s how it works here. Especially if your mummy ran the country.
