Princess Margaret of Connaught, later Crown Princess Margareta of Sweden was one of the most popular and beautiful princesses of all time.

King Abdullah looks very grim and serious. He has a hard task ahead, and will need all of his strength and abilities to navigate in these difficult times. I hope he takes after his father.

Yes, frozen to the bone...and very, very sad.

Absolute perfection!:spainflag: She does her country proud.

:previous: Yes, that is strange...that Astrid is not playing a bigger role. Does anyone know why this would be? It was assumed that when Phillipe became king, she would step up as well. Especially since Laurent seemed unwilling/unable to support the new king, because of his difficult life.

:previous: Thank you for the videos...what a lovely family affair. How regal Noriko is, how confident and calm she appears to be of her future. Indeed the whole royal family and guests exude a certain restraint and dignity that is very unique, I think. Lovely to see CP Masako attending, she...

:previous: The words you have posted reflect my sentiments, too. And I can only be happy for her, for she has earned what she has achieved...and been lucky in love!

She looks happy and relaxed.

A half updo for her hair, and it would have been altogether a perfect outfit for the weather and occasion.

I agree. Her function on that day was being the Queen of the Netherlands not a fashionable society jet-setter. And even on this level the outfit really wasn't a success. The trousers and hat look awkward together. Still, I suppose she usually hits the mark more often than misses. I wonder what...

What shines through the pictures is the utter joy these parents are experiencing at the long awaited arrival of their baby. Everything else is so insignificant by comparison. Catherine and William might just decide not to release any future informal snaps when they are subjected to such harsh...

We have no knowledge of what King Albert has or hasn't done specifically for Delphiine. He might have made some arrangements and we are not privy to them. He might not have, although I would find that hard to believe. We know only what the mother and daughter have told us. There might be...

:previous: Well said! That is the essence of the question. It's not complicated at all. Equality is of prime importance.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. In fact, once I started, it was hard to put down. Of course, it covers material in which I am interested plus Pamela Hicks has a lovely writing style. Recommended! :flowers:

You are not the only one....I think she looks wonderful. :clap:

:previous: Bravo!!

She looks gorgeous!!

:previous: Absolutely agree! She seems to be a bit shy and reserved, which is perfectly acceptable, since her fiance finds her very lovable. I look forward to their wedding with anticipation.

Good for her! She is trying to protect her family as best she can... it isn't easy because Laurent is a rather difficult man. But this really wasn't an occasion where these personal matters should be discussed for heavens sake, which is a point she was trying to make. I hope the royal family...

:previous: This might be why the Albert and Charlene are cutting their honeymoon in South Africa short, and going back to Monaco.

Very well said and I agree completely. Catherine is supporting William and is doing her best not to become a fashion icon, but part of a team. Perhaps he has told her how much he loves her hair down, perhaps she is pleasing him.. She has been elegantly appropriate during this trip and indeed...

Absolutely well deserved. He seems to be a support to the Princess Royal in a similar way that Prince Philip is to the Queen. Always there in the background. He was very endearing during the races at Gatcombe when he wheeled around baby Savannah in her stroller, every bit the proud grandfather.

"According to Expressen",hmm? Still not good enough for proof. Well -- then it's simple. Let's see them and hear them. Publish the audio tapes. Interview the hostess on television. As Cuba Gooding Jr. said "Show me the money!"

If you look at Catherine's pictures from before her engagement/marriage, you will notice that she holds her hands in exactly the same way as she does now. I think this is a habit that she has always had. Of course, it is much more noticeable now that she has that sparkler on her finger!

:previous: All of these allegations are just that -- allegations. There is NO proof, not one shred of evidence to support the media claims. And, being media, they should be able to provide it before they call for the king's abdication. Where are the witnesses to the strip club visits? Where...
