    Well, you know, I'll give Haakon this -- he cuts a mighty dashing figure without his shirt on. LOL

    Charles Spencer, 9th Earl Spencer and Family 2: Aug.2023 -

    You know, if this is your third failed marriage, perhaps it's time to look at what the common denominator is in all those marriages and just, you know, stay single.

    The Duke of Westminster and Olivia Henson - 7 June 2024

    Shows people to their seats. Just like an usher at a movie theater or sports stadium would.

    The Duke of Westminster and Olivia Henson - 7 June 2024

    Eww. There are better ways to incorporate the tradition of "something blue" in your bridal look without teal velvet block heels. Does their wedding reception have a "1990s Rave" theme?

    The Most Terrible Part 4

    I'm sure this has been mentioned already, but if not, I humbly submit Princess Laurentien at Frederik and Mary's wedding in 2004. Holy crapola. Two words for you -- torpedo boobs. I don't know what stylist let her wear that dress without any kind of foundation garment underneath, but it was the...

    Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie's Fashion and Style Part 13: June 2022 -

    I love the swishy pleating of the skirt, but I'm not keen on the top or on the color. It's too blah. I also wish her birdcage veil was shaped differently. It looks like she's got a fruit hammock on her head. LOL

    Royals at the Commemoration of the 80th anniversary of D-Day: June 6, 2024

    It wasn't too long ago that the last survivor of the USS Arizona died. He was 107, I believe. That's why it's important to talk to veterans while they're still with us to learn their stories and understand what they did and why they did it. After they're gone, all we'll have left are the history...

    The Duke of Westminster and Olivia Henson - 7 June 2024

    Why does it look like she's wearing black Doc Martens with her dress? Maybe the shadows around her feet and the hem of her gown are playing tricks on my eyes, but it looks like she's wearing boots. LOL

    What's inappropriate about it? It doesn't show anything vulgar.

    Royals at the Commemoration of the 80th anniversary of D-Day: June 6, 2024

    I loved the little snippet of Frederik's speech. I'm not surprised he gave it in French. I assume he seldom has the opportunity to speak it. I'd love to see a clip of him speaking German, as I assumed he learned it because of his Berleberg cousins.

    The Future of the British Monarchy 2: Sep 2022 -

    That's a silly thing to quibble about considering it's a US-based poll. It isn't like they referred to Catherine as the Princess of Scotland or something wildly inaccurate like that. There's no ambiguity in who is being referred to.

    The Duke and Duchess of Sussex and Family, News and Events 9: August 2023 -

    Messy and disorganized are their raison d'etre. "Megxit" was the definition of messy and disorganized, and everything since that has fallen into the same pattern. They have no idea what they want or who they are. They want to be royals, but they don't want do the work of royals. I called it...

    The Duke of Westminster and Olivia Henson - 7 June 2024

    People should stop asking if Catherine is going to show up to this thing or that. We're not seeing her before 2025. Yes, that'll just feed the rumor mills on social media, but they obviously don't care about the idjits on Twitter/Facebook/etc., nor should they.

    Queen Mary, Current Events Part 1: January 2024 -

    My mother was in hospice care before she died, and the people who worked there were literal angels. It's such an emotionally taxing job, having to be around death and sorrow and grief all the time, but they do such great work at not only making everything comfortable for the patient, but also...

    Prince Andrew, Duke of York News and Events 8: Sep 2022 -

    Palling around with a pedophile and sex trafficker is a bit more than just having poor taste in friends. That disastrous interview he did put the final nail in his coffin. Perhaps if his massive, stonkin' ego hadn't insisted he do it, his situation might be a little different right now. As to...

    Queen Mary of Denmark Jewels 1: 14 Jan 2024 -

    It's not awkward at all. It was mentioned around the time of the abdication what jewels were Margrethe's personal property and what would be now available for Mary to wear. Queen Alexandrine's sapphires, the Golden Poppy tiara, the daisy brooch, and some other bits and bobs were given to...

    The Duke and Duchess of Sussex and Family, News and Events 9: August 2023 -

    Okay, so, my question for her would be, why marry a prince, and a prince that high up in the food chain, if you didn't want to follow the same rules/protocols every other woman who married into the BRF had to follow? Yes, being a working royal is constraining, far more than being a Hollywood...

    Line of Succession to the British Throne

    I didn't misunderstand your question. You asked two different questions, and I answered one of them because I couldn't answer both of them. Your first question was who was genealogically senior to George I, and I said I believed it to be James II's son. With no Act of Settlement barring...

    Line of Succession to the British Throne

    I believe that would be James Francis Edward Stuart, the son of James II and Mary of Modena. He was Queen Mary II and Queen Anne's half-brother and James II's only legitimate son to live to adulthood. He later married and had two sons who lived to old age, so assuming he became king after Anne's...

    The Duke and Duchess of Sussex and Family, News and Events 9: August 2023 -

    One, Einstein said it, and two, the bolded section is...it's something. I don't like either of them, so I'm not cheerleading her, but her maternal heritage traces back to Nigerian tribes. Which one, who knows, but DNA doesn't lie. Considering there is 0.0% African blood in Harry, that would make...

    We've seen that red Jenny Packham gown on the Princess of Wales, only hers was a pale pink, I believe.

    General Questions and Information about the Danish Royal Family

    Thank you for the information, Muhler! You're a pinch to have around for any Denmark-related questions. That's an interesting picture. I rather enjoy the feather boa on the young lady on the far left. I was raised Catholic, and if I'd worn a feather in my confirmation photo, my parents would...

    Naval uniform AND glasses? Does Frederik read my posts here? LOL (God, I hope not. LOL)

    General Questions and Information about the Danish Royal Family

    Hmm. Frederik was only 13 when he was confirmed, but both Christian and Isabella were 15. Maybe Muhler can help us out -- has the age of confirmation changed, or did Frederik and Mary choose to have their kids wait a couple of years?

    Charlotte Casiraghi's Fashion and Style Part 7: July 2023 -

    She's looking more and more like her mother every day. Which isn't a bad thing! That white Chanel dress could have just as easily been worn by Caroline 40 years ago, and it would still be chic.
