#OTD in Irish History | 21 February:

1710 – Elizabeth St. Leger, was known in her time as ‘The Lady Freemason’ and was the first recorded woman to be initiated into Regular Freemasonry. 1775 – Edward Denny, MP for Tralee, commits suicide. 1760 – François Thurot lands French forces at Carrickfergus in Belfast Lough, increasing English anxiety about an Irish-Catholic alliance with the French. 1822 – Birth in Dublin of Richard…

I’ll defer to KP’s knowledge, but I thought C’s title was Lady Carrickfergus as the wife of a Baron, instead of a Baroness in her own right?

ahahaha the institution sometimes doesn't seem to know things they should. The palace, at the beginning of their marriage, used the "Lady" style when referring to Catherine but I guess it changed.

I remember there was an interesting discussion once on Twitter about this and several people were saying that by getting married, Catherine was adopting the female version of William's titles so she wasn't simply the wife of a Baron, so they concluded that it made sense for her to use the title Baroness because that's the female version of William's title and honestly, that makes sense.

[mrmrswales]

Isn’t Catherine Lady Carrickfergus, not Baroness, as the wife of a baron instead of a baroness in her own right? I mean the Court Circular is probably the authority on this, but I’m sure she’s always been styled as Lady Carrickfergus before.

It's suppose to be Lady because Kate is not the title holder

In the official stuff it was always Lady so idk if KP just fucked it up today

HAPPY 12TH WEDDING ANNIVERSARY TO THE PRINCE AND PRINCESS OF WALES!

HRH Prince William Arthur Philip Louis and Miss. Catherine Elizabeth Middleton married in a religious ceremony on 29 April 2011 at Westminster Abbey in London.

Will and Cat were married by the Archbishop of Canterbury, while the Dean of Windsor conducted the ceremony and the Bishop of London gave the address.

Catherine wore a dress by Surah Burton of Alexander McQueen. The Royal School of Needlework's hand-made lace applique for the bodice and skirt incorporated the rose, thistle, daffodil and shamrock. She was lent the Cartier Scroll Tiara by her grandmother-in-law and gifted a pair of diamond earrings featuring acorns from Robinson Pelham by her parents for the special day. The bridal bouquet featured myrtle, lily-of-the-valley, sweet William, ivy, and hyacinth.

William doned on the red tunic of the Colonel of the Irish Guards uniform with a forage cap bearing the Irish Guards insignia and motto, "Quis Separabit?. He wore the Order of the Garter Star and Blue Riband to which his RAF Wings & Golden Jubilee Medal were fastened.

Upon their wedding they were conferred upon the titles of The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Earl & Countess of Strathearn and Baron and Lady Carrickfergus by Queen Elizabeth II.

Following the ceremony in true fairytale fashion, the new Duke and Duchess of Cambridge travelled in the 1902 State Landau in a horse-drawn carriage procession to Buckingham Palace. They appeared on the Palace Balcony for a RAF Flypast and shared TWO KISSES to the delight of the crowd gathered below and my 11 year old self's.

The official wedding photos of the couple with their families and wedding party were taken by Hugo Burnand in the throne room of Buckingham Palace.

A Reception for the couple and their guests was hosted at Buckingham Palace by The Queen while the then Prince of Wales hosted a further private dinner. The couple'a guests had two wedding cakes to choose from - a multi-tiered traditional fruit cake crafted by Fiona Cairns & William's favourite chocolate biscuit cake.

William and Catherine drove to Clarence House following the lunchtime reception in a blue, two seat Aston Martin DB6 Volante which was originally a 21st birthday gift to the then Prince of Wales by the Queen.

William and Catherine have three children Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. The family of five they divide time between their official residence at Kensington Palace in London and their two private residences Amner Hall in Norfolk & Adelaide Cottage in Windsor.

They became The Duke and Duchess of Cornwall and The Duke and Duchess of Rothesay after King Charles III's accession to the throne and were made The Prince and Princess of Wales by him on 9 September 2022.

As well as undertaking royal duties in support of The King, both in the UK and overseas, The Prince and Princess devote their time to supporting a number of charitable causes and organisations with some of their key areas of interest being Early Childhood Development, Mental Health, Conservation, Arts, Sports etc.

🎵 for Rory (or Rorylie), Jacob, and Ophelia?

Rory: Mambo No. 5 - Lou Bega

I like Angela, Pamela, Sandra and Rita

And as I continue you know they getting sweeter

So what can I do? I really beg you, my Lord

To me is flirting it's just like sport

A song for my ladies’ man. Disclaimer: Slut shaming is wrong. Unless you’re shaming Rory, and then it’s fine.

Rorylie: Galway Girl - Ed Sheeran

I never heard Carrickfergus ever sang so sweet

A capella in the bar using her feet for a beat

Oh, I could have that voice playing on repeat for a week

And in this packed out room swear she was singing to me

He might be a bit promiscuous in his youth, but really he has a very good heart. Rylie brings out the best in this boy, and how could she not? We adore her.

Jacob: The Real Slim Shady - Eminem

I'm Slim Shady, yes, I'm the real Shady

All you other Slim Shadys, are just imitating

So won't the real Slim Shady, please stand up?

Please stand up, please stand up

Jacob doesn’t have a playlist but if he did this would be the first song on it. Jacob is the King of Shade. He is The Real Slim Shady.

Ophelia: Do You Want The Truth Or Something Beautiful? - Paloma Faith

Do you want the truth or something beautiful?

Just close your eyes and make believe

Do you want the truth or something beautiful?

I am happy to deceive you

This actually was originally picked as a song for Jacob, but it works for Ophelia, too. She’s lived her whole life pretending to be a person that she’s not in order to get what she wants, and given the choice, she’d do it again. Fake it until you make it, that’s Ophelia’s motto.
