As regards the Swedish Royal wedding, I think HM the Q will wear something important. Maybe not the Brangaza tiara, but the second most valuable, the Leuchtenberg tiara. It's important but not the best in her collection. The sapphire tiara is just right for the third in line to the throne. I...

Sweden has a jewel foundation,no? There's no reason to give Sophia a tiara. She will just select from what is left after the others make their choice

She certainly does a great job. She represents the gracious quality of Spain. The country can be proud of her.

Perhaps she is the one to want out. She has put up with his philandering for many years and has kept her dignity. Maybe she has had enough. There is nothing to hold on to emotionally speaking. JC's reputation has taken a huge dive, but hers is still sterling. Maybe she wants a clean break so...

SElizabeth: so Sofia must do decades of hard charity work without a mistake to earn your approbation. Sigh. It must be such a burden on you to always be perfect with never a mistake in your past. If you became a princess, I'm sure you would have millions of fans as you would never be less...

I always thought that Charlene looked stiff and almost terrified during her civil marriage and parts of the religious ceremony. It must be a heavy burden to be the focus of that much attention. To give her credit she did look poised and beautiful. To me she seems naturally reserved and somewhat...

If I were Maxima I would wear the lightest one available That said Im a fan of the stars. It suits her personality. Second choice is the sapphire. Maxima has the potential to be a superb Queen Consort I think she's doing a wonderful job as Crown Princess. W-A chose very well

Good Heavens. All this speculation about Kate's thoughts and lack of gratitude and her scheming manipulative mother, not to mention Kate's alleged stupidity in hanging around William without an official commitment. Keep in mind that just because you don't see her working or being charitable...

I don't think they will marry before Victoria of Sweden and Daniel. They might be an engaged couple by then, but who knows. If they have anything planned, they're not in any hurry to make an announcement. Personally, I think it's a good thing, as they don't really need to marry until they...

I think Daniel looked rather numb in the photos. I think the whole thing was happy but a bit surreal for him and he didn't quite know what to think of the whole thing. Victoria just glowed. All the best to them in the future. May they have many happy years together.

Kate is in a no win situation here. Getting a traditional job is problematic as any firm she worked for would be besieged with the media hoping for a story and a photo, causing all sorts of problems for any other employees with regards to building accesss, stress levels and transportation...

I voted they will never get married, just because it seems that way. Hope I'm wrong. I would like CP Victoria to be very happily married. If she does marry, I think she will be the same age as her mother was when she married.

He CAN marry her if he's willing to give up his present status. I think that they are waiting for the court to make a decision so that they will be able to plan their future. Is there any reason that if they don't marry but have children that their kids would not be able to inherit their...

I don't think the house hunting article is accurate. I've seen similar reports in the past.

The Duque of Braganzca (sp?) and the Prince von Thurn und Taxis got married for the first time when they were in their 50's, so there's precedent. However, as I've said before, I dont' think that Albert plans to marry. He could change his mind, but I don't think so.

To me Kate seems strong minded, very discreet and pretty intelligent. She looks good in almost all the photos I've seen recently and she does not get falling down drunk on the weekends in the clubs. All good qualities. Keep in mind that in the Windsor famiy the male needs a strong mate and the...

IMHO Infanta Elena is not conventionally beautiful but she is elegant, intelligent and does her part to support Spain. From what I read elsewhere, she is well liked and much sought after as a patron and guest. I tend to think of those that make disparaging comments about the looks of others...

Reading this thread I was struck by how much the past resembles the present. Wasn't Rainier involved with an 'unsuitable' woman for a long time before he 'did his duty' and married Grace? There was also a lot of snarking when Grace and Rainier married, and there was a lot of whispers that she...

I don't get the Kate bashing that she doesn't have a 'real job'. Why would anyone hire her as an employee knowing the media frenzy that would follow her? I don't think that a traditional job is in her immediate future. Photography is a very good fit for her. She gets to "do" something to...

When I look at Charlene at the circus she has the 'deer in the headlights' look. I think she is frightened when she is on display. There's a lot of Charlene hate going on and I'm sure she is picking up on it. I remember reading that there was a lot of mean things said about Grace when she...

The article I read about the 24/7 security was careful not to say that it actually happened, but heavily implied that it did. I don't think that Kate has the security, just that it is being discussed and planned, should the day come when it would be needed.

Good point PadThaiPrincess. I don't think that Charles did much before he graduated from university. I don't think the criticism of how much Beatrice does or does not do should happen until she is at least 22. As to the taxpayers money that Andrew does not 'earn'. I thought the Queen gave...

And I had such high hopes that this would be the year that she could break the awful nail habit. Hee! That's nicely photoshopped.

The truth will come out one way or the other as Harry ages. I don't see any of James Hewitt in him, but plenty of the Windor features. I recently saw pictures of Prince Andrew that remind me of Prince Phillip when he was younger, and rumors have been around for quite a long time that he is not...

I think that if they do not announce an engagement in the next 8 months or so, it is entirely possible that the media intrusion and attention could get to Kate and she could very well decide that although she may love William, the kind of life she would be living is not for her. I'm thinking...
