One sure has to hand it to the British royals.

Goings-on regarding Prince Harry and the Duchess of Cambridge have resulted in gossip around the globe.

Partying and having fun is all very well, but when you're in the public eye, it is surely appropriate to exercise a touch of decency and decorum that one expects from royalty.

Fair enough, it's on a private scale but, what message does it create when you're in the limelight and expected to portray the code of decency and honour that is, and should be, expected from royalty?
