Amy Schumer says royal wedding is going to ‘suck’
Comedian Amy Schumer says the royal wedding will suck and compares it to a dog show.
Comedian Amy Schumer said Thursday she thinks Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's wedding is going to “suck” and likened the royal event to the Westminster Dog Show.
Schumer, 36, said on “Fitzy and Wippa,” an Australian radio show, that she felt bad for Markle and the pressure she must be under, The Independent reported.
“This poor girl. Your wedding, everyone says it’s your day. It’s YOUR day. She’s like, no it’s not. She has to meet all these foreign dignitaries she’s never met before, there’s so much pressure ... can you imagine having a worse wedding?” Schumer said.
“That would suck. Her girls from high school aren’t going to be there. It’s like a parade, it’s like Westminster Dog Show,” she continued.
The “I Feel Pretty” star told the hosts of the radio show that her wedding to Chris Fischer in February was wonderful because “my friends were high and drunk.”
Meanwhile, Markle released a statement saying her father Thomas Markle would not attend the royal wedding following several days of controversy and indecision.
