Yes, exactly, and what has also happened in over a half century or more is the growing dimension of media, media intrusion, and virtual connection - all of which has led the concept and survival of monarchy into "dark waters" because now for too many people the identity and world of monarchy is all just another part of "celebrity culture". The necessary "veil" that Walter Bagehot describes as protecting the identity and survival of monarchy is gone - everyone has an access not just to observing but also even becoming a part of it. The ordinary middle-class or unknown person can become the next "Cinderella" in this type of current celebrity culture narrative...but, what is the actual identity and motivation of that new "Cinderella"? So, marriage alliances over century has become a "double-edged" sword...those dynastic and "co-equal" marriages of the past ane even present are not a guarantee of perfection, by any means, but at least some turned out of the best? No family dramas like those in the post-war era of Cinderella divorcees/newscasters/"La Cubanita"/former Hitler juegend/"shaman" magician/outofwedlock "princess" by parliamentary proclamation...and add to the list as you wish. Followed, of course, by the inevitable threat by the heir: "Let me marry them, or I quit!"
