Do anyone know how tall is Maria Teresa, without her shoes?
Then how about with her shoes on?

 

[la francaise]

Hello Everybody,

Could anybody figure out how tall is Maria Teresa?

 

[suturegeisha]

Hello Everybody,

Could anybody figure out how tall is Maria Teresa?

In a short answer, no, because none of us have ever met her before.

My estimate is around 5'3-5'5. She looks pretty short [like me].

 

[gaggleofcrazypeople]

I'd say 5'4" but we don't really know most of the family's heights.

Hello Everybody,

Could anybody figure out how tall is Maria Teresa?

hm...i'm going to say about 5 feet or 5'1''...quite short...but she seems that short to me good thing she wears heels though

Hillary_nugent I was thinking the same thing. Well what I did was try to compare her legs to those of Jada Pinkett Smith, because she too is only 5'0 feet even. Thanks!!!

Same here! Good idea about comparison....(I just always thought she was really short, like 5' or 5'1", like you both said!)

 

[hillary_nugent]

i think also because of MT's weight it does give her a kind of short stumpy look...Jada Pinkett Smith doesn't look so short even thought they're about the same height because she is so slim =]

 

[la francaise]

I am not sure about Henri, what his height is? Oh, someone said his height was 5'9" or 5'10" . I know Will Smith height is 6'2". Now his height is totally taller than Henri height. Based on the photos I see with MT and Henri, she comes to his shoulders somewhat sometimes. When you see Jada and Will together she comes below his shoulders.

Most of all, both couples look great together and they are happy .

 

[BeccaLynn07]

Hmm...I'm not sure how tall Henri is either. (Anyone know the height of anyone in the Grand Ducal family?)

 

[delineate]

I've heard that Felix is 6 feet, or 2 meters-but I don't know any of their heights for sure.

 

[hillary_nugent]

wah...2 metres??? that's so tall! wow i didn't expect him to be that tall...lol

 

[legnavirginia2006]

Hi everyone
my guess about their heights
Henri & Felix - 6' 1"
Maria Teresa - 5' 1"
Guillaume- 5' 9"

Just wondering in terms of education, do the children go to normal public schools or boarding school?

 

[lisamaria]

Hello folks,
I just leafed through the latest Hola! magazine in the local library, and it has a three-page special about the family. There were some not-published-before pics, and if the mag ever makes it to the newsstand, I'll try to buy it and scan them at some time. Is it just me (and my ordinary upbringing) or does prince Louis resting his of age-old head against his father's shoulder look just a weeny bit pretentious...?

-L

(ps. +30 degrees Celcius in the shadow and that in Finland. Ah summer.)

 

[pasiphaé]

I just bought Hola and these pics are great . By the way, there is a picture of the family in the new Point de vue. I don't think there will be pictures of the national day in the magazines.

judging from the sounds of it, it does sound somewhat pretentios...what 19 year old guy still leans his head on his father's shoulder's for pictures lol? but maybe it really isn't what we think...

Danielane,

are there any pictures of the wedding?. Did any of the luxembourg royals attend?.
It would be so nice if someone would post the pictures out of the Hola magazine.

I don't know. A friend of mine was here and told me the news. But if you want, I will ask her for details.

I know that the Guillaume, Felix, and Louis attended schools in Luxembourg for awhile, then went to a bording school. I haven't found anything about the others yet, but I'll assume that they're doing something similar.

 

[suturegeisha]

Guillaume went to the Robert Schumann school in Luxembourg and then attended Le Rosey.
Felix and Louis went to the Beau Soleil boarding school in Switzerland.

 

[pasiphaé]

Pictures of the grand ducal family I hope they're never been posted before

 

[lisamaria]

Hello all,
here are the pics from Hola! The quality is as it is, as the big one was in the middle of the opening, and had to be scanned in parts. Another interesting notion - on Thursday I was reading the local newspaper here in Oulu, Finland, and there was an article about some large wine auction. The grand duke is apparently selling few hundred bottles from his cellar, the bidding starting from 500€ per bottle. As they probably come in four or six bottle cases, if you have some 2000-5000€ extra in your pockets, you can own something of him... if I can find the paper, I'll post more specifics.

[hillary_nugent]

Great pictures Lisa! Everyone looks great in them -- the one of Henri and Maria Teresa and Maria Teresa with Alexandra are particularly special.

Thank you for taking the time to scan them in and to share them with us here.
