Prince Edward, Earl of Wessex

I think he did embarrass his mother in his younger days....google it. Plenty of rumours about his time at Cambridge, the fact he dropped out of the marines to take up a career in theatre management/production. What has saved him if that his wife has turned out to be a real gem. Well liked by the Queen by all accounts and just quietly gets on with the job. I suspect he's a bit difficult behind the scenes along the lines of Andrew, but without the sordid partying and terrible life choices.

He was adorable before he went bald.

I think he is still really cute, even bald. He looks very goofy. Which I sort of love.

Exactly what I was going to say, r1, although the only rumours about his time at Cambridge were that he didn't get the right A-level grades for entry. He did plenty of other embarrassing things though, such as being the inspiration behind the royal It's a Knockout.

He is extremely low key today, knows what his role really is and seems content with that. His wife is incredibly active with her various causes but doesn't make a big show about it.

He wasn’t known as Dockyard Doris for nothing!

About the royal It's a Knockout. The equivalent today would be William, Harry, Eugenie and Beatrice appearing on Celebrity Come Dancing.

"The show was conceived and organised by Prince Edward, who had been keen to develop a career in TV and theatre after he left the Royal Marines. The show featured Prince Edward, the Princess Royal and the Duke and Duchess of York as non-participating team captains, each of whom supported a different charity. The show was hosted by Stuart Hall, Les Dawson and Su Pollard, with Hal Linden providing commentary for the U.S. telecast. Paul Daniels and Geoff Capes were timekeepers. Aled Jones, Rowan Atkinson and Barbara Windsor were heralds of the tournament. The Duke of Abercorn, the Duke of Westminster, the Duke of Gloucester and the Duke of Roxburghe acted as impartial judges for each of the four teams."

He was a complete laughing stock at one point. The 'It's a Royal Knockout' was so embarrassing for the Royal Family it's banned from being shown on British television. It is true he's barely heard about today. Oddly, here in the UK we hear more about his wife than him, and they're very much the least senior of the senior royals.

John Travolta was on Andrew's team, while Princess Anne had Sheena Easton.

[quote]He is the youngest Windsor and the lowest profile, but he is also the only who has never embarrassed his mother, the Queen.

[bold]NO, gurl.[/bold]

There WAS a whole Fergie type money scandal with his wife a few years ago. They've since withdrawn and play it very low key now. That's why you don't hear to much about them.

HERE >

[quote]Channel 5 documentary “Scandals at the Palace”, which aired last month, delved into another scandal which saw Edward and Sophie the victims of a “fake sheik” undercover reporter. In 2001, Mazher Mahmoud allegedly lured Sophie to a meeting under the pretence of securing a lucrative PR contract. Royal correspondent Emily Andrews explained: “In this particular instance he wanted to employ Sophie’s company for PR, so they met on a number of occasions and Sophie was rather indiscreet.”

[quote]In the secretly-recorded tapes that resulted, Sophie criticised Cherie Blair, and then-Prime Minister Tony Blair.

She had to quit her job.

Would it have killed you to have at least posted a picture OP? Would it? I mean would that have really been so hard? Would it? Why don’t you try to think more of others next time before you post? What's your problem? I mean really, what's your damn problem?

Well, when I say he hasn't embarrassed his mother, essentially what I mean is that he is the only one who has not been forced to crawl to her and ask for a divorce. So there is that. And it should certainly count for something, given this family's track record.

How did Edward and Diana get along?

I have to find the Royal It’s a knockout now!

[quote]Well, when I say he hasn't embarrassed his mother, essentially what I mean is that he is the only one who has not been forced to crawl to her and ask for a divorce.

But that isn't what you said. Buck up!

Isn't he gay?

The then/now pix of Prince Edward, as well as Prince Phillip and others.

R9, etc. that was a fake scandal and entrapment. Sophie quit her day job and started working as a royal.

Here you go, r14. The royals didn't do any of the events themselves but they were team captains.

No one who sees this has any right to make any criticism of Meghan ever again.

Thank you r19!

Brits age like milk. Dunno why.

It might have been the 'Knock-Out' fiasco or some other misadventure; but Edward after its conclusion gave a press conference, and openly smugly touted for praise - which wasn't in the least forthcoming. At which he whined, and said in as many words, 'Well thanks a lot! After all my hard work!'

In its day this was as indicative of entitled cluelessness as Andrew's crass interview last year. He might be comparatively nice, but Edward has never been taken too seriously since then. Not seen in the same light as Anne, for example.

He is an unpleasant person; snobbish, pompous, entitled. He wasn't too fond of Diana either.

Edward's still a bit of a worry.

He put a lot of quid in my pockets.

[quote] Not seen in the same light as Anne, for example.

In Anne's youth, she was the Yoko Ono of the Royal family. Everyone loathed her.

[quote] He is the youngest Windsor and the lowest profile, but he is also the only who has never embarrassed his mother, the Queen.

When did Anne ever embarrass her mother?

[quote] He wasn't too fond of Diana either.

My understanding was that until her marriage dissolved, at least, they were quite close. She was the one who encouraged him to leave the Royal Marines because he was so miserable.

Remember when Sarah was the Duchess of Pork... good times.

Actually r29, she still is Sarah, Duchess of Pork. But she's no longer HRH the Duchess of Pork.

I always assumed he was gay.

Don't forget that a film crew for Edward's production company tried to follow William around St. Andrew's. This after the media agreed to lay off and give William space for at least his first year there. Charles was furious and gave a dressing down,

He was also voted as least liked among palace staffers for being an imperious asshole over 10 years ago. (sorry, I can't find a link) Philip was most popular

The queen is very close to Edward now because she's supposedly very fond of his wife Sophie, who is supposed to be a very nice person.

There doesn't seem to be much point to Edward--I'm not exactly sure what he does, although at least he's not an embarrassment like his older brother Andrew.

It's funny how Andrew and Edward were so attractive in their 20s and then both completely hit a wall. Andrew somehow retained his hair, at least.

WOW r19 that was wacko! I can’t believe any one participated in that mess, let alone royals. Fergie would, but she is /was uber thirsty. Andrew throws a tantrum when his team is losing as well.

I always thought that Queen Elizabeth's facial expression and body language were interesting in this photo.

Fergie looks...interesting at R35

Lots of gay rumors about Edward back in the day. Supposedly he had an affair with Brit theatre star Michael Ball.

R17

Why do all BRF have those rodent/Bugs Bunny sort of front teeth?

Edward IS he gay one.

He was really cute when he was younger.

The happy couple

More on the gay young prince

Fergie already has her sights set on Andrew in R35.

As someone who spent most of the 90's boozing and gossiping in lower Manhattan during happy hour, I've heard one too many pre-internet "Dockside Doris" stories to completely discount them. Good on him for enjoying his youth and settling down with a good solid woman before the inevitable Windsor curses of male pattern baldness, horse teeth and stubby sausage fingers destroyed his looks.

He embarrassed her by being HIV+. That is undercover but obvious.

And just how, pray tell, is it obvious ?

r17 I looked at the website. King Harald V of Norway, was a hottie. In an aryan youth type of way. Now he looks like Jabba the Hutt.

Oh dear r35, if I had know my great uncles were in so il prepared for the spotlight I would have summoned them to my palace sooner. Andrew, or He Who Shall Not Be Name, is shaped like a refrigerator. Uncle Edward seem to be the nelliest little queen on the island. I thought Gran-Gran would have a stroke! Thanks goodness I'm now here to show the family how to really strike a pose.

r35 She suddenly understood why her mother was a raging alcoholic with only two children. Granted one of them was Margaret.

R32 One did manage to get a few snaps of the boys before one was escorted out.

R47 Yet, despite his weight, King Harald manages to look more dignified than any male member of the BRF.

r51 perhaps it's because he's a King. But really, the Norwegian RF are a bunch of country bumpkins.A big yawn from an insignificant country. They are only worth around $100 million and are one of the poorest royal houses.

Still, they are doing a 1000x better than me.

R52 We all know what your feet look like, Chuck! No need to remind us.

R52 lol he looks ridiculous in that red coat, not just Charles, they all look awful wearing red cape in that photo

[quote]There WAS a whole Fergie type money scandal with his wife a few years ago. They've since withdrawn and play it very low key now.

And DL . . yawned out the most underwhelmed BRF thread of the decade

Does anyone know what is the cause of PC's red, swollen hands and feet?

how has he kept secret all the boys/men who have fucked him thru the decades....he is very !!!! gay, dears...

they sign a shhhh agreement before sex??

R57 some underlying health issues, poor blood circulation, diabetes, arthritis...?

Is this the only Royal thread left?

R58 Maybe he chooses to be with the kind of person who is able to keep their mouth shut afterwards? There are a few discreet people out there.

[quote]Is this the only Royal thread left?

Yes. Great, isn't it!

What a relief! I'll make a prediction. When the Queen dies DL's site will crash for at least a day. The old bord is getting old, DL better prepare.

he was hot for five minutes

edward and william

edward and william

Sophie Wessex is a real royal work horse. She is always out and about greeting orphans, the poors and the oldies.

She needs to lay off those unflattering flared pants and jumpsuits.

r68

And they don't even have titles or is it titties?

Poor Edward , he gave up being a homosexualist for THE FIRM.

R69 Sophie is a Countess. Her son is styled as James, Viscount Severn and her daughter is Lady Louise Windsor.

As Rubashov put it on the fifth day of imprisonment in Koestler's Darkness at Noon, "The revolutionary sells their soul to the devil, hoping for the absolution of history."

Prince Edward was known as Princess a, Royal Dumpster when he was "working" as a stagehand on Broadway(and having a BIG TIME Affair with Michael Ball( Les Miz, Joseph and the tacky colored cloak). He was "putting out for everyone"(nice-looking back then, had all his hair) It was after he dropped out of the Marines, got a fake jog with Miss Lloyd-Webber.. I was living-working full time in NYC as a Stockbroker(working with a lot of Broadway Money guys investing their Broadway billions). Edward was a nice guy and a great fuck(love the rich English accent-dumping ur nutt in the royal dumpster). I have mentioned Edward before on other threads about famous guys I fucked-got fucked by!!

Well then R73, I'll bite - do please elaborate. a's size, cut status confirmed, and just how versatile? DL loves details…

Yes r73, please see r74's post. Additionally, he wasn't a bad looking guy, but them teeth were something else. Did he always bottom and were there any other stories. I love tea on a Mondays!

To (R74)-(R75).. Princess a was a bottom, loved getting fucked,sucking cock(swallowed my white trash babies several times). She was fucking the hot stagehands and crew(so was I),and a lot of other men. Edward had a nice tight body, phat ass,nice sized cock(average-I sucked his cock too.swallowed his Royal babies) He was fun in bed. he was tall.thin but built well. He had great hair(at the time),and he had the English teeth(horse teeth), but he was a HRH. He was always about people knowing what he was doing(everyone knew). Lots of famous men fucked him(Big dicked Barry Diller). Like I said before, he was fucking around with Michael Ball a lot. I figured they were Fuckbuddies together!!

Thanks r76/r73 cut or uncut. Did you ever ask him anything about what it's like being a Prince. Also did he have body guards that sat outside of your apartment while you two fucked?

I wonder how Edward got to be such an accomplished cocksucker? Were there hung guys on the staff at the palace who were willing to feed him their dicks so he could perfect his technique? Once one has a jizz addiction, it's hard to break. I'm sure Edward has his "private days" away from the family that are spent bottoming and sucking dick.

[quote] Lots of famous men fucked him(Big dicked Barry Diller).

Tipped your hand too obviously here.

There would be no reason whatsoever for Edward Windsor to let the repulsively ugly Barry Diller fuck him when Edward has all the money he will ever need.

Be more intelligent about your Extremely Salacious Tales next time.

Cocksucking is hardly something you needs years of formal training for, dear.

I think Edward hit a harder wall when he aged than anyone I have ever seen who was not a complete junkie or alcoholic.

I do not understand why he aged so badly. He doesn't seem to use drugs or abuse alcohol--at least I have heard no stories about it. And how did he completely lose those beautiful full lips in such a short time?

[quote] They are only worth around $100 million

OMG, how do they survive?

r78 honey it's called the english all-boys boarding schools. Plenty of opportunities to experiment or find a lifetime playmate as I'm sure Edward has to keep his secrete under wraps.

I just realized, Edward has the background and age to be a resident DLer. I'm willing to bet that he is one of the crazy Meghan Markle posters lol. Wouldn't that be a hoot. I'm sure the palace reroutes all IP addresses for general protection. He's likely one of the protocol Queens on here, knowledge the British Royal Family's rank to the letter.

Hey Edward, I mean your Royal Highness.

PhillyWhore please come back anytime! I miss the gossip that DL used to produce.

[quote]There would be no reason whatsoever for Edward Windsor to let the repulsively ugly Barry Diller fuck him

First of all, we are talking almost 30 years ago. Barry wasn't too bad back then, and when you add in a huge dick, it's all he needed. PLUS, this was when Edward had show business stars in his eyes, and was dreaming of some kind of show biz career. Barry Diller would have been an excellent contact for him in this phase. I'm sure he serviced him to a fare-thee-well just in case he needed Barry's career help at some point.

P. Edward sez: "My wife and I look pretty good in comparison to my nephew and his wife, eh?!"

She swallowed it all and the check didn't bounce.

Interesting that The Queen's youngest son was evidently so very active during the heyday of the big disease with the little name.

[quote] Sophie is a Countess. Her son is styled as James, Viscount Severn and her daughter is Lady Louise Windsor.

Those are just made up things that anyone can get. There are millions of countesses and counts and barons and earls.

Only Prince / King / Emperor / Sultan and Duke are the good ones.

This thread is hilarious. I have no doubt that a British prince could have gay fun on the side both before and after marriage, but I find it a bit hard to swallow that the Queen's youngest son was a pass-around bottom for everyone from Hollywood moguls to literal dockworkers.

Who's the weirdo 'shipping Prince Edward and Barry Diller?? Good god, get a life!!

I think old Philip had the trollop-twink offed, and replaced with a double. That is why none of his facial features look as they did.

[quote]I find it a bit hard to swallow

Not I! I never find it a bit hard to swallow!

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

I was just watching The Crown and I thought the ears for Charles was a bit too much.. Nope. Who has THAT big of ears?

[quote] plus he’s not *that* bad looking.

As your photo reveals, he's a hideous troll and should be hiding under a bridge in Scandinavia.

He almost looks handsome in his younger pics, and the definitely has big dick face. I'm with r93, I would definitely have done young Barry Diller as often as I could.

So what is the story with the Wessex marriage? They cranked out two kids, was a turkey baster enlisted to assist? Do either of them have discreet liaisons with other partners?

He's probably one of those bi guys that get it up enough to do the straight marriage thing, but only fucks the Duchess a hand full of times a year, Bigger question, what was up with Sophie? Is she another gold digger with dreams of being a princess? Cause she's living the dream, minus the fug husband.

[quote] He's probably one of those bi guys that get it up enough to do the straight marriage thing, but only fucks the Duchess a hand full of times a year,

What duchess?

His wife is just a royal countess.

How embarrassing. Royal Countess? Why even bother? Question, would he outrank a Royal or Regular Duke, or does it go by the line of succession when you're a Royal____ something or another?

He would not outrank a royal duke. I think he outranks regular dukes because he's HRH.

He will be a royal duke himself soon enough: the BRF has already announced that when Philip dies, Edward will be made HRH the Duke of Edinburgh.

That won’t happen until the Queen is dead too

r101 so would the Royal Dukes, Prince Edward, Duke of Kent & Prince Richard, Duke of Gloucester, outrank Prince Edward the son of the reigning monarch?

when I see clips of him on Youtube he seems very affable and self aware. Hard to believe he’d be a cunt in real life, he seems like the ‘nice’ one of the four Windsor kids.

His home, Bashot Park, is quite opulent for someone so far down the line of succession.

That's a good question r103 that I can't seem to find the answer to.

What if Prince Edward is DL's grammar and punctuation queen? That would be hilarious.

This is r98, disregard my question, that palace sized home shown in r106's post explains why Sophie picked a good one. Live in a gigantic home with millions in the bank next to a husband that won't cheat with another woman (cough) or cause waves.

Meanwhile, Anne got this little hobble, great for horses, but small. Is she the Princess Royal or one of Phillip's Euro Trash royal distant cousins? The Queen treats her like the help.

I love Princess Anne's house, I would live there in a second.

[quote] so would the Royal Dukes, Prince Edward, Duke of Kent & Prince Richard, Duke of Gloucester, outrank Prince Edward the son of the reigning monarch?

No. The sovereign's sons take precedence over and above every other male in the kingdom other than the sovereign--and right now, by the sovereign's orders--the Duke of Edinburgh, except when Parliament decrees Charles takes precedence over his father as the Prin ce of Wales. Next in order of precedence are the sovereign's grandsons, the sovereign's brothers, the sovereign's uncles, the sovereign's nephews, and the sovereign's cousins). Their familial closeness to the sovereign supersedes title.

Here is the order of precedence:

The Princess Royal, Anne, is the queen's only daughter. She was given Gatcombe Park, while her brothers were eventually given Royal Lodge and Bagshot Park. (Andrew was originally given a new home, Sunningdale Park, when he married Sarah Ferguson, but they didn't like it; they moved out, and finally sold it, and it has been since demolished.)

Royal Lodge and Bagshot Park have been in the BRF for over a century, and they are both enormous, but they are much too big for a modern regular family to live in comfortably. They are mostly empty and drafty and uncomfortable. Anne's house, Gatcombe Park, bought for her after her marriage to Mark Phillips, is smaller, but it is considered much more comfortable and livable.

The Wessexes can only afford to heat a small number of rooms in Bagshot Hall.

the disguises he uses at the sauna and bookstores are said to be amazing...

his fat hole is good eating im told...and his tittys mighty good suckiing

Is Sophie a Lez-Lez?
