NOTE: I promised this post a week ago. Before I start, please be aware that a lot has happened in those seven short days concerning this controversy, so I will try to sum it up as best I can.
Hopefully, you are aware of our newest Disney Princess Royal Court member – Merida. If not, I direct you to this previous post.
Along with including Merida in the Royal Court, Disney also is including her in Disney Princess merchandise. To do so, they had to convert her from 3D to a 2D figure. As they did with Tangled’s Rapunzel.
You’d think this would be simple.
It wasn’t.

Welcome…Princess Merida!
It’s official – Merida, Scottish star of Disney-Pixar’s features Brave, is now an official Disney Princess.
Not just a princess in the Disney franchise. No, she’s now the 11th member of the Disney Royal Court aka the official lineup for the Disney Princess franchise.
Take a look with me at the royal festivities!
I Am Merida…And I Am a Princess!
This morning at 9:30, the ceremonies began at Disney World.
In a pretty epic coronation ceremony, all the members of the Royal Court showed up in front of Cinderella Castle to welcome the newest member, who came in riding on Angus (that was sweet!) with banners and Scottish dancers. Let me just say at this point that I love how “Merida” stayed in perfect character during the entire ceremony – just wonderful!
Joining the Royal Court on the stage, Merida told everyone how excited she was to be here and then the proclamation was read. Her mother Queen Elinor (yeah, that’s right! Her first Park appearance!) came out and crowned Merida, making her the 11th member.
Then there was a really really cute hug between mother and daughter.
And then the best part: Merida happily stood before the audience in her new crown and proclaimed, “I am strong. I am brave. I am Merida…and I am a princess!”
Cue fan girl screams now. Man, Disney sure knows how to do it right.
After Queen Elinor gave Merida her bow, Merida joined the rest of the Royal Court for a final photo opportunity – a once-in-a-lifetime one until Princesses numbers 12 and 13 come in 2014.
Welcome Princess Merida to the Disney Royal Court!
ttfn!
Here’s the video of the coronation from Disney Parks Blog, showing different angles/views of the event! Enjoy!
Mary Connor at the blog Capturing Magical Memories got an up-close spot at the coronation, and her pictures of the ceremony really make you feel as if Merida and the others are standing right in front of you!
