Legions of royal watchers would love to get their hands on one of the gold-embossed invitations sent to Prince William and Kate Middleton's 1,900 royal wedding guests.But few would go as far as Mexican teenager Estibalis Chavez, who has spent the last nine days on hunger strike to try to get herself on the exclusive list。
大批的王室觀察者都希望收到一封威廉王子和凱特·米德?tīng)栴D送出的共1900封鑲有金邊的婚禮請(qǐng)柬，成為受邀嘉賓。但很少有人會(huì)像墨西哥女孩 Estibalis Chavez如此瘋狂，竟絕食9天試圖讓自己成為受邀嘉賓名單一員。
Miss Chavez, a 19-year-old high school student, has set up camp outside the British Embassy in Mexico City in the hope the couple will hear of her vigil and send her an invitation to the ceremony in April.The self-described 'royalty fan' has spent the time painting pictures of the prince and Miss Middleton and giving out handwritten flyers. One reads 'are they going to let me die just because they wouldn't give me an invitation to the royal wedding?'Another bears a picture of the couple, who are to marry in Westminster Abbey on April 29, with the note 'it is my only dream'.She pitched her blue tent outside the building last week, and claims she has drunk only water for nine days.Cutting a forlorn figure in pigtails, glasses and woolly hat, Miss Chavez told reporters it was her childhood dream to go to the wedding and that her campaign was inspired by the late Princess Diana.She said: 'I think she was one of the most interesting women in history, and one of the best and most beautiful.'My mother was a big fan of Lady Di too and she died when I was born, so I promised myself I would attend her son's wedding.'
Chavez小姐是一名19歲的高中生，她已在英國(guó)駐墨西哥大使館前扎營(yíng)，希望這對(duì)新人可以聽(tīng)到她的堅(jiān)守事跡，邀請(qǐng)她參加四月份的婚禮。這位自詡皇室粉絲花時(shí)間畫(huà)出了王子和米德?tīng)栴D小姐的肖像畫(huà)，并向路人分發(fā)手繪傳單。上面寫(xiě)到：“他們打算讓我餓死，只是因?yàn)樗麄兯麄儾辉敢庋?qǐng)我去皇家婚禮”另一張傳單上畫(huà)著這對(duì)夫婦的畫(huà)像，上面寫(xiě)著“這是我唯一的夢(mèng)想”。她將藍(lán)色帳篷搭在大樓外面，聲稱她上周只有水喝過(guò)9天。扎著發(fā)辮兒、帶著眼鏡及絨線帽，看上去消瘦的查韋斯小姐告訴記者，參加王室婚禮是她的童年的夢(mèng)想，她的這次活動(dòng)的靈感來(lái)源于已故王妃戴安娜。她說(shuō)：“我覺(jué)得她是歷史中最有趣，而且是最棒和美麗的女士”。“我的母親也是戴安娜的超級(jí)粉絲，她去世時(shí)正是我出生之時(shí)，所以我對(duì)自己的承諾我要參加她的兒子(威廉王子)的婚禮。”
In a statement, the British Embassy confirmed staff were aware of her campaign, but said: 'Buckingham Palace regrets that there are no more spots available.'
一項(xiàng)聲明中顯示英國(guó)大使館工作人員證實(shí)說(shuō)相關(guān)人員已經(jīng)注意到她的活動(dòng)，但說(shuō)：“很遺憾，白金漢宮沒(méi)有足夠的位置了。”
However Miss Chavez blamed the embassy for not helping her end her vigil.She said:'They could talk to Britain for me but they haven't. But I'm going to stay here until I can't go on.'
然而，查韋斯小姐指責(zé)大使館沒(méi)有幫助她以及她的守夜活動(dòng)。她說(shuō)：“他們可以和英國(guó)相關(guān)工作人員說(shuō)出我的故事，但他們沒(méi)有。“但是我仍打算在這兒扎營(yíng)，直到我可以進(jìn)去。”
