On #ThisDayInHistory in 1936, the UK dodged a bullet when King #EdwardVIII abdicated his throne before being crowned. He was in love with a twice-divorced American, #WallisSimpson, and was not allowed to marry her. That he was a fucking #NaziSympathizer was apparently just fine.
Il gioiello passò da donna a donna, da epoca a epoca. Ma isignificato rimase lo stesso: non si possiede la Panthère. È la Panthère che ti possiede

Rampantly bisexual American socialite, royal consort and Nazi sympathiser Wallis Simpson the Duchess of Windsor, was BOTD in 1896. #wallissimpson #duchessofwindsor #bornonthisday #badgays
A cinéma icon. Amazing story surviving against the odds in a deeply patriarchal profession. I’m off to #Hammamet today, possibly call at #HotelBadira which named a suite after Cardinale … and others after #GeorgeSebastian and #WallisSimpson, both feature in my guided tour of CCIH #DarSebastian
Psychobetches - Neither myself nor adobe autocaptions could figure out what she said after What a Guy, it was bad enough trying to figure out Reichsstrasse (which was an "imperial road" class introduced in the 30s in Germany by, well, guess) #psychobetches #michellegomez #wallissimpson
I don't profess to know the Royals. Admire? Yes. Unfair bad publicity? #Harry&Meghan. EVERYONE makes $ off of them, but they'd better keep quiet. Servants, butlers, employees, & relatives write books and yap to tabloids for profit. #WallisSimpson was treated better. Be nice or don't comment, please.
The “Firm” are a powerful PR machine. They did the same to the only other divorced American woman who dared to marry one of their princes. #WallisSimpson

"I don't think love ever dies. It changes its course, it softens, it broadens. It may be blunted temporarily by a row or misunderstanding. But if it was genuine to begin with, it has a soul." #wallissimpson #duchessofwindsor #thewomanheloved #ralphgmartin
