Local Hero Ignores Kate Middleton While Watching Her Stories On The Telly

A legend named Stella Drewett basically told the future Queen to hold her horses because the midday soaps were reaching a climax.

Look, we all think we’d lose our collective minds if Kate Middleton rocked up to our front porch, but 94-year-old Stella Drewett is officially the CEO of Not Impressed. The Princess of Wales basically did the ultimate door-dash by showing up to take Stella to lunch, and Stella reacted with the same energy most of us reserve for a delivery driver holding a lukewarm burrito. While Kate was out here doing the most to highlight local transport services, Stella was reportedly more concerned about whether she’d have time to finish her tea. It’s the ultimate power move. Imagine having a literal royal on your welcome mat and thinking, 'Ugh, is this the one with the crown? I’m busy.' Word on the street is that Kate handled the cool reception like a pro, probably relieved she didn't have to spend forty minutes explaining what a TikTok is. Honestly, we need more of this energy in 2024. If you aren't treating a royal visit with the casual indifference of a Tuesday morning mail delivery, are you even living? Stella is now our official mascot for 'Keeping It Real.' Kate might be the future Queen, but in that living room, there was only one boss, and she was busy wondering if the biscuits were going to be the fancy ones or the cardboard ones.
