NOW that we have the divorce of the year, may we spare a thought for the two queens?
The Queen has never put a foot wrong in a 44-year reign.
And the Queen Mother, was thrust into the spotlight 60 years ago by an equally nasty divorce situation, losing her husband at an early age in a job he never sought nor wanted.
Our thoughts must go to the two young princes who are the innocent victims of a very selfish couple. May they grow up unaffected by all this and enjoy a happy life.
