1. Princess Beatrice of York
One of Queen Elizabeth’s granddaughters and eighth in line for the throne, Princess Beatrice may not have gotten as much attention from the media as her royal cousins. However, after Prince Harry and Meghan Markel’s wedding, this reaction to Michael Curry’s sermon will hopefully give this expressive princess some overdue attention. Princess Beatrice can’t stop snickering, and she’s looking around to see if other people are laughing too, or if she’s the only one who finds this funny…we’ve all been there.
2. Zara Tindall
Zara Tindall is the Queen’s second oldest grandchild and is 17th in line for the throne. Although she doesn’t have a royal title, this spectacular reaction qualifies her to be Drama Queen. She looks absolutely stunned, after all she was probably expecting a quieter and more reserved ceremony, which is the typical tone for these events in the past. Tindall also looks like she was caught off guard…maybe the dead vulture sitting atop her head came back to life and pecked her. Who knows.
3. Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall
Camilla, who also couldn’t keep a straight face, showed more of a look of disgust. Perhaps she is more of a traditionalist and does not believe that weddings should be a place for pizazz and excitement. Imagine your step mother-in-law giving you that look at your wedding. I feel for you Megs, welcome to the princess life.
4. Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge
I think Kate is a little jealous that her wedding wasn’t this lit. Her expression is similar to the face you make when you drop a plate and the glass shatters everywhere and you don’t want to pick it up so you just stand there staring at it and go “ooooo”. I’m sure she is very happy for her brother-in-law and new sister-in-law and thought the wedding offered a beautiful service, but in that moment she looks a bit taken aback.
5. Charles, Prince of Wales
Have you ever seen an elderly person asleep in public, and you just want to nudge them to make sure that they are, in fact, sleeping? That was kind of my thought while watching Prince Charles’s reaction to this sermon. Maybe he’s looking down so no one can see his smirk, or he was bored to sleep from watching yet another royal wedding. All I know is that I had a sigh of relief when he eventually lifted up his head.
6. Queen Elizabeth II
Queen Elizabeth, the powerful matriarch who is known for her stiff poker face, amongst other things. Even though it is almost always impossible to read her facial expressions, as she believes that emotions should not be visible to the public (okay, I’ve had mental breakdowns in public many a times, but you do you queenie) this face doesn’t seem like her typical blank stare. Her facial expression seems a little more shocked than usual, or as they say in Kensington Palace, she looks 'shooketh'. My theory behind this is that the Queen and Kim Kardashian conspired to create the same technique in which by not smiling, you reduce the amount of wrinkle lines. Because the Queen is probably around 700 years old, I think this technique works because she doesn’t look a day over 189.
7. David Beckham
Next to Prince George and Princess Charlotte, David Beckham had the most adorable, squishable face in the entire chapel. This famous soccer player had a look of pure admiration for the newlyweds and seemed to thoroughly enjoy Pastor Curry’s sermon. His excitement was obvious and come on…look at that face.
