The King might have had his flings, but I wonder if they were during his own engagement ? ...which is a bad sign, I think, for the character of Jonas if this is true. The Princess is still wearing her engagement ring, so that may be a good sign. (or bad) depending on your point of view.

Nonsense! Age is just a number.... a marriage depends on so many other factors...and not generalizations. :smile:

:previous: Aha! The outfit Letizia should have worn to Easter Mass! :flowers:

I couldn't have said it better -- she was inappropriately dressed for such an occasion, and she does so consistently. I thought to myself, as you did, that she does know how to dress her daughters beautifully, but she herself seems to "underdress" for many events.

What nonsense...and insulting to the Queen. As if she couldn't make up her own mind about whether she could ascend the stairs. Even her advisers didn't see a problem. Could not a hand rail be built just in case? It seems a shame that she won't enjoy the Tattoo, but I don't blame her for...

Hmm.... no luck on youtube. I suppose it's too early for it to be up there. I thought my video software was up to date, but I shall have to ask my computer-genius son (haha, they all seem to be at that age) to have a look. Thank you so much for your responses sgl and adamari.

Is anyone from Canada having trouble getting these programs? I have tried many ways, from different links provided and all that happens is the message "waiting for video" and the video never appears. I wonder if it is blocked for Canada, although I notice that the US posters are seeing the...

:previous: She has a great figure for her age but I have noticed that she has allowed unnecessary droopiness to alter the lines of some of her clothes. Or am I just imagining it? She looked lovely in the deep blue dress.

Those girls have been having trouble lately ... Camilla needs some wind beneath her wings, I think.:smile:

:previous: Hahaha.. good idea -- .photoshopped and we would get just the look that we like, with the combination of jewels that we love for Camilla. I mentioned on another thread that I wish she would sometimes wear her hair in an updo with her tiara for a change for evening events. But I...

And once...just once, I would like to see the Duchess with an updo and tiara, instead of all that fluffy stuff. I think it would look lovely.

I think that she dressed more thoughtfully during the first few years of her marriage. A bright, fresh elegance. Lately it seems that she has thrown caution (and her stylist?) to the winds and dresses (particularly in the daytime) to please herself and to hell with what anyone else thinks...

In the above link, a great pic of the Swedish king, and the Canadian prime minister, Stephen Harper at the gold medal game for women's curling. The King must be especially pleased that his team pulled one out of the fire and staged a surprise upset in the last minute. We Canadians were...

He was really "rollin", wasn't he? Who would know in 2004 that in the ensuing years he would be divorced and then find love again and start building a new family. Life is very interesting, isn't it? :smile: The video shows just how far Mary has come along since 2004 in terms of confidence...

Vancouver is the place to be for royalty lovers! I have seen Princess Anne, and the CP's of Denmark and the Netherlands. And just a glimpse of Haakon (about thirty feet away). The weather has been gorgeous, so many people are out strolling and unaware of the royalty in our midst!

Wow! Her fashion choices seem to be getting more bizarre -- does she not have a consultant? She may be considered chic is some circles, but she is a crown princess, after all, and should have some kind of guidelines in mind when she is performing official functions. Let me assure you that...

Her greatest beauty secret is the kindness that seems to radiate from within.

He is such an adorable grump -- I'm not surprised that he was tidying up a bit and probably muttering a few choice words about whoever had dropped the litter. :smile: And, he's leading by example!

For Eastenders...that will be another 25 years from now....perhaps William or Harry (or their spouses) will do the honours then.:smile: I am quite pleased that Camilla will go to corrie street -- I wonder if she is a fan?

I'm still choked up about that little 7-year old boy who reached up to hug and kiss Camilla yesterday. He had lost his father in Afghanistan and was there with his mum and sister to see the royals. Charles and Camilla were very warm and gentle with him. How gracious.

Media or not -- (and who watches the CBC anymore?) - it remains a fact that many Canadians don't want the monarchy to be the head of state, thousands of miles from where the monarch lives. I am not one of them, but I understand the sentiment. Being interested in or liking the Royal Family is...

Gosh -- Mary is absolutely stunning in both evening gowns -- a quiet elegance that is very confident as well. Did you notice Frederick giving Mary the once over behind her back in one of the pictures? So cute. I look forward to some serious jewels matching the new creations, as you suggest. I...

It's not so much that the two are unpopular in Canada (or British Columbia where I live) it's more that they seem to be rather irrelevant in today's social climate. We are a nation made up from so many different origins. Many people have no opinion on them one way or another and simply don't...

Love the first dress! And the other is quite gorgeous as well. The fabric and style seem to suit Mary very well...

Well, her father was a military man, and by all accounts, she was very close to him. She's seems to enjoy herself at these military related functions, doesn't she?
