Above, the drowning of George Plantagenet, 1st Duke of Clarence.
And, yes, some wit may suggest it that it could be Prince Harry being sobered up early tomorrow morning!
This morning, “The Daily Torygraph” again speculated about Prince Harry being created the Duke of Sussex (https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2018/05/18/duke-duchess-sussex-will-meghan-harrys-royal-titles/) on the eve of this wedding – which means this evening.
The British Gazette would refer “The Daily Torygraph” to our article published on the 1st April – April Fool’s Day!

Many readers of course will suggest that tomorrow is a great non event not worth of mention, but the British Gazette strongly disagrees. They may be rich and famous but Harry and Meghan will be like many couples tomorrow – for Saturday is the most popular day for weddings – making a public commitment to share the rest of their lives together.
We wish them well.
Prince Harry is marrying the woman of HIS choice. No one else, not even The Queen, has expected him to marry someone from the aristocracy with a title, or a member of a foreign Royal Family in order to keep up traditions. Prince Harry is his own man. Sixth in line for the throne, it is doubtful if he will ever be King, which he is probably quite happy about. Megan has accepted her life will dramatically change. No nights out with girl friends and not free to hop on a plane to visit family and friends in America when she feels like it. No doubt private visits will be ‘ arranged ‘ quietly but all kept heavily under wraps. She will be a princess and both of them will be given a title, the Duke & Duchess of – somewhere.
I wish them well. The diversity in this match can only be for good for The Monarchy.
After all, our present Monarchy is of mixed blood ie Sax Coburgs !
