An undemocratic, if mostly symbolic, monarch is not exactly a modern institution. But the UK government wants to bring succession into the 21st century by ending "male primogeniture." Queen Elizabeth may be one of the most high-profile female heads of state, but she only became queen because she did not have a brother. Under the UK's male primogeniture rule, the first-born male is first in line Read more
Some Brits are so excited about the upcoming royal wedding that they came out to see this ridiculous impostor version earlier this month. Meanwhile, the real deal is really bothering others. Republic, a group that supports the abolition of the monarchy, has a plan to hold its own April 29 street party: "Not the Royal Wedding."

While his brother William is getting tons of attention for his upcoming royal wedding, best man Harry grabbed the cover of British GQ to talk about the cause of wounded Read more
This just in from the Queen's Twitter. The first official Limited Edition Loving Cup has been produced to celebrate the royal wedding. I have so many questions! First, what's a loving cup?

It doesn't include a cute proposal story, Jason Mraz's "I'm Yours" playing in the background, or a page about the wedding party — yet. But Prince William and Kate's, I mean Catherine Middleton's official wedding website looks relatively familiar. We see professional engagement shots of the happy couple, along with information about the service and the reception. Right now the site doesn't Read more
Kate Middleton's sister Pippa got a wedding warmup last weekend at the marriage of fancy-sounding couple Lady Katie Percy and Patrick Valentine. Since the 27-year-old will be at her big sister's side when Kate officially becomes the future queen of England, we can expect to see more of Pippa. From last weekend's photos, we know Pippa enjoys a fantastic fascinator as much as her sister. So what Read more

You've seen this formal royal engagement photo of Prince William and Kate Middleton; now it's time to feast your eyes on another set of images of the couple. English artist Prudence Staite has created a unique snapshot of the soon-to-be-wed pair, and it's made entirely out of edibles. From peas to cauliflower to green beans to turkey, the tribute has everything included in the traditional Read more
The British monarch released strict guidelines last year decreeing that all royal wedding souvenirs must be made in "good taste," so it's safe to say that these condoms break the rules. Released by "condoms of distinction" maker Crown Jewels, these commemorative love sheaths "combine the strength of a Prince with the yielding sensitivity of a Princess-to-be." Since they went on sale on Jan. 28, Read more
