Prince Harry Pays His Respects To Fallen US Soldiers At Arlington National Cemetery

"To my comrades-in-arms ..."

Prince Harry of Wales arrived here in the US yesterday for a week long visit to the United States of America on official British Royal Family business and one of the first things he did upon his arrival was pay a visit to Arlington National Cemetery. As a military man himself, Harry understands what service in the armed forces means and he wanted to pay his respects to the US military service personnel who paid the ultimate price. After Harry toured the gravestones at Arlington, he participated in a wreath-laying ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknown Solider. As you can see in the photos below, it was a powerful ceremony of respect. More »

The London Marathon Pays Tribute To The Victims Of The Boston Marathon Bombing

The Perfect Day

The 2013 London Marathon took place earlier today in jolly old England and, thankfully, the event went off without a hitch. Today’s marathon was the first major race to take place in the world following the events of the deadly Boston Marathon bombing that took place last Monday. While security was beefed up for today’s race, it sounds like the event ran about as smoothly as possible. Ethiopian Tsegeye Kebede won the men’s elite race by finishing the 26.2 mile course in 2 hours and 6 minutes (!!!) while Priscah Jeptoo of Kenya won the women’s elite race. Before anything got underway today, a poignant and respectful moment of silence was observed for the victims of the Boston Marathon bombing. Click below to see a few photos from today’s exciting event. More »

Prince Harry Is Coming Back To America

HUZZAH! HUZZAH!

The last time Prince Harry of Wales visited the US, he tried to sneak in and out of Las Vegas but managed to LITERALLY get caught with his pants down (well, off, really) sparking a worldwide controversy that very likely gave his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, fits. Today we learn that Prince Harry is returning to the US in May … but he has no plans to go anywhere near Sin City. Harry will be coming to America to do some charity work on the East Coast … but he will be spending some time in Colorado … which is dangerously close to Nevada, now that I think about it. HMMMM.

Actually, Kate was reported as saying that she “hopes” to have a boy while Prince Wills “hopes” to have a girl and she reiterated officially that the couple do not yet know the sex of the baby.

Did Kate Middleton Accidentally Reveal The Sex Of Her Baby?

Whooooooops!

HMMM … could it be that we now know the sex of Kate Middleton‘s unborn baby with husband Prince William? It’s very possible … because Kate herself may have accidentally let slip the baby news that was meant to be kept secret. As Kate was accepting gifts from her royal subjects yesterday, it appears that she inadvertently revealed the sex of her baby. Now, she didn’t come right out and say it but a slip of the tongue — heard by those around her (and caught on video) — may have given the whole secret away. Click below to watch video of Kate‘s slip up and see what you think … did she really let us know the sex of her unborn baby? More »
