Greek Christmas card
I received the Greek Royal Family Christmas card and the front (which is never shown on cards here...) shows the cypher or monogram of Constantine II and Anne Marie in blue topped by the Greek crown.
Thought I'd share that---also it seems Danish cards are made by the...
George VI and the State Opening of Parliament
Folks, heres an interesting hunt for you... I've never saw a picture of George VI wearing the Imperial State Crown while opening Parliament. All Ive saw him in is his navy uniform, due to WWII, I assume. Does anyone have any photographic evidence of...
Hmmm
I think that the Koloshnik(sp) tiara would look great on HRH the Duchess as well....or the Grand Duchess Vladimir one. I wonder if Camilla will use the George IV State Diadem when she is Princess Consort or Queen Consort whatever the case may be...
Maybe we won't be seeing many more...
hmmm
I honestly don't think its because it looks good on her, even though it does. Most colours look great on Maxima. Orange doesn't look as good as really any other color on her...
Maxima
Hmmm....does anyone else notice that Princess Maxima often wears orange? I mean, not many people wear that color so much. Do you think its a pun off of their name? I also notice that the Grand Duchess of Luxembourg wears it often and one of their orders of chivalry's ribband is orange...
Well, even in lay jobs where you live with your employer, the pay is usually slim. Its like an internship kind of.... pay isn't on their minds, I'm sure. Its the honour of serving the Royal Family. Like congressional pages, etc here in the uSA. Its not really a career....
Liw
I agree. Mary has almost nobody in Denmark to confide in probably. You have to understand that the Royal Family is her in laws and her mother in law is the Queen of Denmark...everyone knows how commoners usually feel about even the visitation of inlaws. She lives in very close proximity to...
Ladies in Waiting
Well, you do know that Ladies in Waiting are not merely personal assistants or servants, they have traditionally served as a companion and a friend to the princess or queen. Look at Marie Antoinette with Polignac and the Princess de Lamballes....
not a christmas card
ok it wasnt a christmas card just a correspondence card like they sign for condolences etc, with a cypher or monogram with S and A crowned with a coronet...why would they continue to use a joint monogram if they are divorced, also Sarah lost her HRH status did she not and...
Hmmm
Notice on the cards bearing the signatures of Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie the cards still bear a joint monogram of Sarah and Andrew and they were divorced prior to 2001 yes?
Lol

THE QUEEN movie to be released in 2006
I have discovered that a movie about Her Majesty following the days of Diana's death will be released later this year. However, everything I read says limited release in NY and LA....will this be released to mainstream USA anytime and if so, when. I don't...
Mm
MM's outfit may have been aubergine but it was hideous, IMO.
It didn't fit her properly, it was quite bulky and looked like she bought it at Sears or something, jacket wasn't tailored quite right...
Mary
This is going to sound somewhat odd but HRH Princess Mary was reminiscent(sp...its late) of the Holy Virgin with the colors of her outfit.
i.e. Mary is typically pictured wearing that color of blue with a white veil---which CP Mary's floral hairdecoration reminded me of...
Thats just...
