Azrinaz looks very tired from these photos. actually there is a nice photo of her during ASEAn but I don't have it. Anybody has them? Apparenty shewas the focus of attention during the summit.

 

[Humera]

I agree. She looks tired and I think definately better with makeup. Without makeup she looks quite ordinary.

These are the pictures from the ASEAN summit gala. From infofoto:

As I'm a member of another board of forum, I've read that YTM Azrinaz is expecting...I can't really confirmed it since no photos...

She is about 3 or 4 months pregnant now. She has been keeping out of the spotlight.

 

[Humera]

she didnt wait very long did she?
I wonder if this means she'll get the Princess title after the baby's birth.

 

[i_s_s_a]

i think so... just like what happened to the crown princess of thailand

Sultan of Brunei declares himself infallible
The Sultan of Brunei has taken a surprising step in the ongoing legal wrangles with his estranged brother. Prince Jefri Bolkiah will find it difficult to appeal a ruling ordering him to hand over billions of pounds worth of properties and jewels after his sibling declared himself infallible.................

Interesting from Hello - certainly wrong about the pope and infallibility. There is nothing in the understanding of this concept that says the pope can do no wrong, it is really about divine protection against teaching wrong.

 

[Humera]

Hello's not the most reliable source.
But it is very interesting. I wonder what people in Brunei think about this.
I have been trying to find out more on this story but haven't found anything from other sources yet.

She is about 3 or 4 months pregnant now. She has been keeping out of the spotlight.

how do you know that she's 3/4 months pregnant? does the royal house announce the news (or....does the royal house usually announce this like other european royal house?)

Is Sultan Bolkiah second wife pregnant anyone knows ? His ex-second wife (Mariam) move to London after divorce ?

 

[Qamarina]

Kinda odd seeing Queen Saleha wearing her tiara with her headscarf on, but her attire is just so beautiful! Seems like it's all embroided!

 

[PreDoc]

Kinda odd seeing Queen Saleha wearing her tiara with her headscarf on

I thought the same thing when I saw that image ... another option might be to put wear the tiara on her hair than wear a headscarf with a slit in it over the tiara to avoid showing the sides

 

[Joumana]

It's seems hard to me what the King did to Queen Saliha.
He receives the throne from the father of Queen Saliha and what he did?
He married twince after her. Does she deserves this?

Or because the marriage was arranged that he did married twice???

Sultan succeeded on the abdication of his father

The Sultan did not receive the throne from the Queen's father. It was from his own father who abdicated, Oct 4, 1967, that the Sultan of Brunei was crowned August 1, 1968.
