From ELLE

Forget Meghan Markle’s wedding dress, the cake and who is going to walk the bride down the aisle tomorrow afternoon, for just a second.

Because if there’s one Instagram account to follow ahead of the royal nuptials and to get your Monarchy fix (other than ELLE UK’s Insta, of course) today, it’s that of Family Guy writer/producer, Gary Janetti.

Rogue choice, right? Well, not exactly.

You might know Janetti better as one of the masterminds behind Will & Grace and Family Guy (he came up with the the hilariously sardonic voice of Stewie). However, the Hollywood heavyweight is now making waves across the pond as a result of his sassy Prince George memes.

“I think I just found my look for the wedding!”

The writer - who is married to celebrity stylist Brad Goreski - was first inspired to create a George-inspired Instagram account after Kensington Palace released a series of photos after the four-year-old’s first day of school at Thomas’s Battersea last September.

“From the looks of him I’d say Drew Barrymore and Steven Spielberg.”

‘He was just so expressive and really cracked me up,’ Janetti admitted to Vanity Fair earlier this year.

“I think I saw them on their bikes...”

‘I posted one with a caption, without giving it much thought,' he added. 'I did a few more and slowly developed a character for him.

'Then, when Meghan Markle got engaged to Harry and she was everywhere in the news, I had formed enough of a character for George that I knew, “Oh, [Prince George] is not going to like this.” He is not going to like somebody else getting all the attention.’

As a result of the third-in-line to the throne’s moody face during public appearances (he’s yet to perfect the royal smile and wave just yet, unlike his sister), Janetti has gone onto create a ‘jealous, petty, vain, and monstrous,’ character, much like Stewie in Family Guy.

I mean, it's not that hard to imagine given the fact the little prince was rumoured to have flicked the back of his sister's head on entering the Lindo Wing to visit their little brother, Prince Louis, last month.

Seriously, this Instagram account is bloody hilarious.

“Oh, shit, she thinks she’s Jackie O!”

“Is it a garment bag from H&M?”

“Oh look, Charlotte, you’ve already bored it to sleep.”

‘This boy is going to become the king of England. He’s very jealous of his new sibling. Queen Elizabeth just turned 92. All of these elements coming together, through this little kid’s eyes, is like a runaway train. To me, [the George memes] are like a little TV series, a little comic Shakespearean drama.’

‘I see him as King Lear, but at age four,’ Janetti continued.

“I’ll do it.”

“If you don’t stop waving I’m going to rip your fucking arm off.”

From picturing the little one at Coachella, imagining his hatred for Princess Charlotte (‘George despises her, but knows that he can use her-she’s somebody that will be easily manipulated to do his bidding’) and his contribution to the Sex and the City feud (‘He contacted Sarah Jessica Parker to let her know he wanted to take over for Kim and play Samantha in any future sequels’) we can’t get enough of Janetti’s musings about George.

On the subject of the Kardashians, Janetti thinks George is indifferent.

‘He has a grudging respect for the Kardashians. He acknowledges that they’re America’s version of the royal family, which he thinks is very beneath him. At the same time, he sees what they’ve done, the empire they’ve built, and the amount of fame that they have . . . so there’s a little bit of acknowledgment, like, “Hello.”’
