No, not just royalty. I wouldn't want to date or marry anyone who's famous.
There's a big little difference. Ordinary famous people can stop being famous after a while (and many do since their fame is very driven by their careers). Royals are the ultimate celebrities. You are on the top for life.
You mean Madonna or Billy Joel will some day be not-famous, while some obscure European Duke or Princess will be more famous, for life?
I think there are degrees of both kinds of fame. I would personally just stay away from anyone with fame, whether it appears to be life-long or short-lived.
I'm curious about how people would feel in regards to getting to know a member of royalty, falling in love and potentially marrying him/her.
This might be a bit foreign to Americans (or perhaps not so because of the Kate effect) but these days there's a talk about the rise of "middle class royalty" in Europe, since most royals marry common people instead of other royals or aristocrats.
Would you be able to get past the consequences of marrying such a person if you were really in love?
Beware that presidents and prime ministers come and go but you would be on the spotlight for life (even if you divorced).
If my Prince would be willing to pay off all the "film producers" to take off my "movies" from the internet, yeah, why not?
You mean Madonna or Billy Joel will some day be not-famous, while some obscure European Duke or Princess will be more famous, for life?
I'm obviously not saying that will happen to everybody. But many of the entertainment's business names we know today will not be known in a few decades (like what happened to many people from the 70s and 80s).
Even if you are not a well known royal, you would still lead some sort of public life in that country.
It's like the ultimate trump card for women looking to date up.
"I'm dating royalty." Nothing actually tops that.
Meh, did anyone see that show that was on last year, with guys who were princes, going undercover to date women and try to find true love? I caught one episode. A lot of people on the planet seem to be royalty, but not people you'd want to brag about. Being prince or princess of some little p*ss-ant state or tribe doesn't go very far.
Sure but if you loved the person, perhaps you could put up with it.
On a more serious note, one thing that disturbs me is the fact these people can never talk without someone listening behind the door. Either be it security or servants.
No, like someone else said, I wouldn't date the person in the first place. It would never get to the point of love.
