@jean_dingle So Zara and Mike did , Sophie and Edward did but they aren’t black . It’s called love and comforting in time of grief . Those that are loved and love do it . I’m guessing you don’t have that in your life hence you make vile comments

@baugher_ronnie @caitlinmoran So you’d be happy for children to live with a mum and dad in an abusive household? Have to break it to you as well, most families consist of stepdad/mums, single mum/dad. Children with biological dad/mum and step mum/dad. There is no normal . Being happy is what’s important.
