Pictures from yesterday evening’s event - I don’t know if you can be seen on any of them Maria-Olivia? Xx
Queen Elisabeth Music Chapel on Instagram: "#TributeConcert - Look back on an exceptional evening dedicated to our former charismatic leader & gifted CEO, Bernard de Launoit. One year after his passing, the @musicchapel wanted to pay tribute to him with a wonderful evening to share with you some of Bernard’s favourite pieces, for a concert that we wanted to be in his image: dynamic and full of musical colours. We would like to extend our warmest thanks to the Masters, Associate Artists & Artists in residence who took part in this evening of remembrance. Thank you Bernard @megane.fphotography"

Nice pictures, both Albert and Paola look rather well.
As mentioned by maria-olivia, they were sitting next to the widow and children of the late Count Bernard de Launoit (1964-2023)

King Albert and Queen Paola were yesterday in Assisi, Italy. They visited the graves of Saint Francis of Assisi and of Blessed Carlo Acutis (a young boy who was beatified by Pope Francis in 2020). An article and a short video:

It is mentioned how their faith has an important place in their lives since their reconciliation, in the 1980s.

Yes, I've noticed it's the same bag he was wearing last week at the Easter mass in Brussels

King Albert felt unwell and fell earlier this week, while on holiday in Grasse with Queen Paola. His condition was never life-threatening, and he didn't end up in hospital, according to the Royal Palace. Princess Astrid visited her parents these days, but it was a planned visit, not related to Albert's health.
The festivities for both his upcoming 90th birthday (6 June) and 65th wedding anniversary (2 July) will go ahead as planned.
Koning Albert II (89) even onwel geworden tijdens vakantie in Frankrijk, maar stelt het volgens Paleis weer goed
