At the end of the day, I suppose that most British will be happy to see a breath of fresh air blow into the Royal Family. And whilst I am sure there will be some jealousy aimed at Kate Middleton for her good fortune in possibly marrying the prince, I imagine the majority will be of the mind...

Sigh..... Let's be pleasant with one another please, and avoid yet another discussion on how the CO couples spends the money that they have, whilst comparing them to other royals. This is a thread about the current events for Frederik and Mary. Thanks Empress - Danish Moderator

I suspect that the name is pronounced Ell-ee-ahna, or Ell-ee-ahn

That's not really fair. Basically they take with one hand and give with another. If Elsabeth chose to go to school and take a paid profession, she would not receive any dotation since she would be paid by her job. I don't think that they should have the right to do that. She would probably...

For crying out loud. How can she get it so right, and so wrong, in the space of one day? The black outfit was absolutely lovely. The gold one did nothing for her at all, shape, color or style wise, and is totally the wrong thing to do, wearing all gold in the middle of the day. Good grief!

I think that it should not be stark white. Stark white only looks good on women with very dark complexions in my opinion. Something like what they call candlelight white in the states would be nice.

Beautiful eyes. He looks like an intelligent little sprout doesn't he?

Who on earth is Countess Hedwige? I do not see mention of her in the Liechtenstein Royal family page on Wiki, and I can't find information on her anywhere else.

I have deleted posts about Lance Armstrong, as this is not relevant to Prince Alberts current events. Please keep posts relevant. Thanks Empress - Monaco Moderator

Well, for all we know she could get pregnant after any possible marriage, and the child could be born early. So unless she is clearly pregnant when and if she gets married, we'll never know.

Well, hold on. If she were only allowed to use her husbands title, would she not have been called Princess Louis of Luxembourg? If she is allowed to use her own name, then it would stand to reason that she is a Princess in her own right, correct?

Well, while we all agree that Henri M does have extensive knowledge, I do not think that we should take his word and the be all and end all. Especially since published reports in reliable publications state that she was "created" a princess. Perhaps someone with a better grasp of the Luxembourg...

Perhaps Lucien can correct me if I am wrong, but I believe that women do have succession rights in Luxembourg. Otherwise, they would never have had a Grand Duchess in their own right. Charlotte comes to mind, who was the reigning grand duchess of her time. On another note, I believe that...

I can't say that I am all that enthralled with Tessy's outfit. The colors don't really do much for her.

Is she created a princess in her own right, or only as a result of her marriage? My Luxdembourgish is not fantstic, so I couldn't quite discern what was written entirely.

Well, I think that we are forgetting that there are heirs to the throne in Carolines Children. Whatever the case may be, I don't think much of his playboy ways.

I said it in the fashion thread, and will reiterate it here: My husband says she looks like a baboon, and is only missing the red butt. To which I responded, well, I guess she could wear red pants, and complete the image. Not the nicest ocmparison, but definitely had me laughing!

Jeez. That makes it even worse....

Cookie monster nothing. That does not do that horror justice at all. As I said in another thread she looks like she's been attacked by a cross between a purple shag rug and a wooly mammoth. And oh dear god, it just keeps getting worse! (Thanks to Athikavalentine for finding the ANP photo)...

Sigh... I take it back. Maxima , she looks as if she has been attacked by a cross between a purple shag carpet and a wooly mammoth. ANP Beeldbank

Oh dear. Not princess hair at all. And sometimes she just gets it soooo right. She looks amazing here. Her makeup and "uitstraling", or radiance for lack of a better term are just beautiful. She seems to be beaming from inside! And then, there is the awful purple shag rug that she wore...

Ah thanks Warren. I thought that we were talking about Camilla on Ladies day. Is she there? On another note, a teletubbie on parade describes Eugenie perfectly.

On top of that, Eugenies dress.... well she looks like she crawled into a potato sack that had been dyed purple. It is terribly ill fitting at the top. Hmm. I have not seen Camilla today. Does anyone have a link?

I do not like Eugenies hat at all! That is not a hat, in fact. It is a plate that has been perched on her head. It must be one of the stupidest things I have ever seen on a royals head. Anne on the other hand looks marvelous!

I love both Marie and Mary's outfits for all of the events, but especially for the gala tonight. Not sure what I think of Mary's new tiara though. I will reserve judgement till I see a better photo of it.
