Prince William and Catherine Duchess of Cambridge
Simon Callow was disappointed with the royal wedding, as it didn’t live up to his expectations.
The actor said he wasn’t impressed with the royal wedding of Prince William and Catherine Duchess of Cambridge.
The pair wed in regal style in front of the world’s eyes last month, but Callow said it was too informal.
He tells the Sunday Express, “I was struck by the extreme relaxation of the protagonists, and that was kind of amazing, but a little disappointing too, I thought, because it was such an epic event yet they looked as if they were in their own front room. I saw them lolling around a bit on their seats and making little jokes and all the rest of it.”
He continued, “Clearly the contrast between them and Charles and Diana was all to their advantage, and yet if these events are to be held and the taxpayers pay a great deal of money for them and they are significant meaningful spectacles of some kind or another, it would be nice if the participants seemed to have some sense of the grandeur of the event.”
