And because they are just like us they went to a state school, ahh yes, they really are just like us. Bravo HuffPost for highlighting this, I think the world would never have known how much like us, THEY really are.

Princess Christina of Sweden attended Radcliffe back in the 60s before Harvard went coed. My then-boyfriend, who was of Swedish descent, had something of a crush on her :-)

Prince Harry made average to poor grades at Eton. They'll get looked at because they work hard and go under a different name to be treated the same!! You see mist of them go to famous/prestigious schools- they don't need publicity!!! And besides none of them have power

At least the British royals do things like fly helicopters and serve in Afghanistan amongst the small fry.

When she felt her children were "getting above themselves, I remember Princess Grace used to tell her children never to forget that their grandfather was a bricklayer.

People should not care about European royals. There should not even BE European royals. Why are you covering these people? This is the Barbara Waltersization of HP.

OMG It's like I've fallen into the internet Wayback machine.

Next thing you know HP will be telling us Charles and Diana are getting married.

Just like us? Uhhh, I don't think so. These spoiled brats have had everything in life handed to them, often quite literally on a silver platter. In college they will have their grades handed to them regardless of whether they earn them or not. The whole idea of "royalty" in the 21st century is absurd.

I think that's the case for some of them but not all

This is the non-story of all non-stories. There is nothing here. See HP does these 'click thru the photos' thing because every photo you click on is a page hit. I gotta get a better news aggregate. This site is really blowing.

Ahhh...so that's why they changed the old way of doing slideshows, which were all on one page, but were so much more convenient and quicker to load.
