My King ↡ British Royal Family

Chapter Sixteen : Losing A Daughter

Chapter Sixteen | Losing A Daughter

"The beauty of a woman must be
seen from in her eyes,
because that is the doorway to her heart,
the place where love resides."
-Audrey Hepburn

"Cèline, how dare you not tell your family that you are engaged?" My father asked.

For half an hour, My father was been throwing an tantrum over having to find out that his only daughter was engaged by the press.

Catherine and Meghan congratulated Demarco and I while Harry was a bit upset but William just gave me a hug and told Demarco to take good care of me.

My grandfather gave me that look that said I told you so but I ignored it.

My grandmother finally understood what I meant the other day and said I will make an exellent Queen.

Overall, it was a lot of mixed signals from the family.

"Charles, calm down." Demarco said.

"You have no right to talk to me. You didn't have the decency to come and ask me for her hand in marriage!" My father exclaimed before walking out of the room.

Prince William and Princess Cèline attends World Premiere of "They Shall Not Grow Old"

Royal sibling bonding time as Prince William, The Duke of Cambridge and Princess Cèline of Wales, the future Queen Consort of Norland attended the premiere of Peter Jackson's new First World War documentary They Shall Not Grow Old Tuesday evening at a special presentation of the British Film Institute London Film Festival.

Director Peter Jackson, best known for The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit series, colourised film footage from the Imperial War Museum and BBC Archives, converted it to 3D and then used "modern production techniques," according to the British Film Institute, to show previously unseen details in the footage.

Prince William reportedly told Jackson that he was interested in seeing the colour footage as it might change how the conflict was perceived.

In a release on the British Film Institute's website, Jackson says that "I wanted to reach through the fog of time and pull these men into the modern world, so they can regain their humanity once more - rather than be seen only as Charlie Chaplin-type figures in the vintage archive film."

Jackson's grandfather served in the First World War, and he said that "I now have a greater understanding of what my grandfather would have gone through."

About Prince William, he said, "I hope he likes it, he came down to New Zealand a few years ago and visited our First World War plane collection - he wanted to grab a plane and go up flying - he certainly has an interest in this historical area."

Tricia Tuttle, the artistic director of the Film Festival, said that "...we know much about the horrific impact of this conflict on its soldiers, especially the brutal scale of the casualties which decimated a generation, but Peter's film offers new understanding of the human experience of life at the front."

They Shall Not Grow Old was simultaneously played in theatres around the country when it premiered at the British Film Institute's London Film Festival.

"William, what's wrong with our father?" I asked after we arrived back from the premiere of They Shall Not Grow Old.
