When was the last time a British Royal married an equal i.e. another Royal?

Personally I'm tired of all the commoners marrying into Royalty.

The old expression goes one can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear. Diana proved that!

I like the idea of Monarchy; it's Royalty that I have a problem with!

The Duke of Kent married a Princess of Greece and Denmark in 1934;
the present Queen of course married a Prince who had dubiously
renounced those titles in 1947.

Indeed...for it to happen rarely makes it special,but for it to be
what is always expected amounts to the extinction of pure royal ancestry.

The World Trade Center towers MUST rise again,
at least as tall as before...or terror has triumphed.

Seriously Comrade? Words fail me. No they don't. You have taken silliness to new heights. I am disappointed in you.
