I don't agree with their political Views

However, this couple, should be able to enjoy their lives without be scrutinize for everything they do. If they're out there doing good for people and who are we to judge. GOD Bless them and their little family. Stop living their lives. Let them keep helping the people, and to preform their Royal Duties, They are always in the spotlight and to be picked apart for everything that they do is unfair to humanity.
We should praise them.
