The last time she'd been in this position, she'd been very stressed and emotionally wrought, but now, now everything was perfect. She and Benedict were getting married on their terms and nobody was bossing them around. Their acquaintances were now dear friends and the home they lived in would soon have the sounds of growing children laughing and running about.

The Duke of Edinburgh and Lady Louise Windsor in hysterics as The Duchess of Edinburgh takes part in a funny carriage driving section at Sandringham horse trials
Ahead of the Duke of Edinburgh's 60th birthday on Sunday, the Duchess of Edinburgh described how like his father Prince Philip, Edward "never seeks compliments for himself" in a speech in Leeds, leaving him tearful 👇

Death stood over him, imposing and utterly terrifying.

Chose which hand I put her life in, was the eerie and silent question.
Benedict prided himself on being quite a logical sim and observant. But he knew he was shaking with fear of Sophie dying, and he chose the hand...
...that didn't have her life in it.
"NOOO!" he howled in despair.
I gave you a chance and you failed, came the taunt of Death. Deciding that he'd been here long enough, he turned and sent Sophie's soul to the spirit world, leaving her urn behind.
❥ Day 11 - Favourite photo(s) of Catherine with the British royal family
Catherine's relationship with the Windsor family is quite possibly one of my favorite things ever. She's the daughter Charles always wanted, is Camilla and Sophie's best friend, Anne and Tim adore her, and she's the ride-or-die for William's siblings Zara and Mike and their families. Edward is like the dorky uncle who’s almost a best friend. Even though we don't get to see her interact with the younger Edinburghs as much, the short time we do see them together only proves that she's like an older sister to them. And even I, with my complicated relationship with the Yorks, can admit that, despite what everyone would have us believe, the girl squad of Bea, Cat, and Genie proves everyone wrong with their friendship.
