Even if there is a consort crowning during the coronation, it is unlikely the Koh-i-Noor will be used on any piece owing to the controversy. Here is the bottom line, as I see it. Mothers absolutely must understand that when a son marries, a new family has begun. That marriage is his NUMBER ONE priority. His loyalty and primary concern needs to be with his wife and the family they create. This never means that the mother ceases to exist and must be cut out or shown no concern. It means that she has done her job in raising a man, and she needs to step away from any attempts to keep the mother-son relationship a mother-child relationship. He is now a man and a husband. Failure to recognize this is the seedbed of most of the problems with daughters-in-law
