William might actually have a US military medal, but since he has never worn it I’m leaning towards he maybe doesn’t. But the crew of the Iron Duke is said to have gotten a Joint Service Achievement Medal from the US in 2008 due to them seizing a ship with drugs, and William was one of them. But if he never wears it we’ll probably never get it confirmed.
So what if he does? The UK and US are allies, and if there has been a situation that would grant soldiers of both nationalities a medal, then that's fair. But there's also no reason for the Prince of Wales to don a US military medal in an official capacity.
I'd have to raid my husband's brain to get the etiquette of it all. He's a smart little bean.

Do you think he doesn't have it or throwing a tantrum by not wearing it?
the coronation medal? he's entitled to it but i wonder if it's just not been rolled out to everyone else. i admit i don't pay enough attention to the medals to know either way

“now i'm being educated by americans about his jubilee medals. being british in the romance world is hard, guys 😂😂”
You’re kidding?!
Came across a tweet where someone in the emergency services said that he’s amused to have a KCIII Coronation medal whilst Harry appears to not have one. 😉
never. i'm never kidding. lol

“agreed, i hope he doesn't strain himself and takes care in his return. he's already given us so much of himself!” There are some bloggers that think KC’s honor to Catherine isn’t one at all and it’s more of an insult than anything else. What do you think of it?
Honors aside, I’m glad he’s feeling better and able to return to work soon.
Her honour is literally one that has never been given to a member of the Royal Family until now - and it's one that she has very much earnt.
I'd like anyone who thinks it's an insult to drop into my ask box and give me a well-rounded, well-thought out, justified argument for why it's an insult instead of the history-making honour it is.

“i cannot express how much i actually adore this photo, it's just so so lovely”
Isn’t it just?!
So, so pleased His Majesty is doing well. I will keep my fingers crossed that he listens to his doctors (and his wife) and paces himself accordingly, on the long road to remission.

it's just such a warm and fuzzy picture, you can really feel their bond in it!
agreed, i hope he doesn't strain himself and takes care in his return. he's already given us so much of himself!

His Majesty The King will shortly return to public-facing duties after a period of treatment and recuperation following his recent cancer diagnosis.   To help mark this milestone, The King and Queen will make a joint visit to a cancer treatment centre next Tuesday, where they will meet medical specialists and patients. This visit will be the first in a number of external engagements His Majesty will undertake in the weeks ahead.   In addition, The King and Queen will host Their Majesties The Emperor and Empress of Japan for a State Visit in June, at the request of HM Government.   As the first anniversary of The Coronation approaches, Their Majesties remain deeply grateful for the many kindnesses and good wishes they have received from around the world throughout the joys and challenges of the past year.

It's not my intention to make you cry! 😂 I'm just taking the opportunity of knowing that one of my favorite authors will read my message to express my gratitude haha.
Several of your books are my comfort zone. Even though I practically know them by heart, they help calm or quiet my mind. They help endure my panic attacks. Your books make me laugh, cry, and sometimes yearn for a better life. Authors like you not only provide entertainment, I think we could call it that😅, but often also provide comfort. Moments of peace, laughter, tranquility. Sometimes they also teach a thing or two on certain topics 😏😏so thanks😂. Thank you, Emma.
Note: For much of the book, I kept saying I wanted a Theo in my life, but now I think what I really want is a Duke in my life haha.
Being an author is such a weird thing - there are so, so many measures for 'success,' - publishing deals, royalties, bestseller lists, reviews, sales... yet this right here will always be my greatest achievement. This is my success. And this is why it makes me cry.
I'm a storyteller. I'm only doing what millions have done through history--what thousands of people are doing right at this very moment. It's nothing special, really.
But thousands of books are published every day. And of all those books, of all those millions of words written, mine are what bring you comfort. My words give you peace. Words I've agonised and obsessed over. Words that have kept me up at night. Words that I've literally cried over. Words that have taken a piece of my soul to the page with them.
I will always cry at messages like this. So, thank you. Thank you for reading these little chaotic pieces of my soul. Thank you really isn't enough to tell you what this means.
Your words are what keep mine going.

me: this was supposed to be a wholesome scene
my characters: the sex scene was an accident
me: i'm not mad, but you just did it like 800 words ago in the last chapter
my characters: we were sleeping between the chapters
me: *sigh* fine
