The Royal Family have access to some of the finer things in life but not even they are immune to the allures of the beautiful game. Yes, indeed, the royals are known to put their weight behind some professional football teams. Though they must remain politically neutral, there’s no decree that a royal can’t show bias towards their chosen football teams. So, who do the royals support?

Jeremy Corbyn once said in a speech: ‘Now, we know the Queen is absolutely above politics. She may be above football, too, but many locals harbour this quite secret view that she’s … [Read more...] about Which football teams do the royals support? Queen, Prince William, and more

Brides on asking for money instead of wedding gifts
Weddings are rarely cheap. The average cost for the big day plus the engagement ring was $33,900 in 2019, according to Statista. After a pandemic lull, costs are expected to rise again this year . This might explain why more and more engaged couples are asking their wedding guests for money rather than gifts—whether it's to help pay for the celebration or the honeymoon, or for their future life together.

Newsweek has asked two brides—one who had her wedding last month and another who is about to celebrate hers—why … [Read more...] about Brides on asking for money instead of wedding gifts
