Other than it being nice to hear of an old couple managing to preserve the pretence of a happy marriage personally I couldn't care much less.

Well, you miserable old wotsit, Todger.

None of us know whether it's been a happy marriage or not, but it's immaterial really. They've stuck it out regardless.

I think 73 years with one partner is some achievement, and probably one that very few of us will ever manage.

I'm pretty sure it's only duty' that has kept them together for so long what with all his 'alledged' affairs.

Exactly so. There's a shed load of evidence that it's not alleged either.

They don't have to stay together because of 'duty' surely?
I suppose none of us know what truly goes on behind the scenes though.

Princess Margaret divorced, and old rat bag Prince Andrew, and Charles, let alone royals from the past.
