    What will happen to the Royals in 2008

    I personally feel that it is somewhat tasteless to speculate that someone will die, irrelevant of the fact that it is a part of life. I think we should focus on happy things that will happen in 2008.

    Succession Rights For Illegitimate Royal Children

    I believe Erling Lorentzen, husband of Princess Ragnhild, Mrs. Lorentzen, admitted he had an affair, and the woman he had the affair with had a child, and Erling sponsored the child, but I believe the child turned out not to be his. I am not positive on this, so hopefully someone more...

    Unusual Royal Traditions And Practices

    Christmas is spent at Sandringham, which is in Norfolk. Balmoral, in Scotland, is where they go in the summer. I always thought that it included all fish in the sea within a certain distance from the shore. I am not sure about this, so hopefully someone can clarify.

    Royal Voices & Accents

    My favorite royal voice was Grand Duchess Josephine-Charlotte's. It was so unique, most likely due to her smoking, but I found it to be very calming and warm. I still can't believe that she is no longer alive...

    Royal Voices & Accents

    Felipe's voice is not what I imagined. I would have thought that his voice would have been as deep as his fathers, and his mothers!

    The Royal Family Order (RFO) and other Royal Orders and Decorations 1: Ending 2022

    I doubt that Camilla will get the Order of the Chrysanthemum. Apart from the monarch, the heir receives it, and not the spouse of the heir. No female monarch has this order, except for Elizabeth, Beatrix, and Margrethe. As a consort, and other female members of royal families, the Order of the...

    Orders & Sashes

    It's the Crown Order. It was bestowed upon Diana during Beatrix's visit to the UK in the 1980s. I believe it was the only order Diana ever received. The Order of William is seldom bestowed, and if it was bestowed upon a royal, it would most likely be a monarch. The Dutch orders are as follows...

    Royal Medical Conditions

    The late Grand Duchess Josephine-Charlotte of Luxembourg, I believe, had a stroke several years before her death due to cancer. Archduchess Regina of Austria-Hungary had a stroke earlier in the beginning of this year or the end of last year. The late Princess Gina of Liechtenstein, mother...

    Which Royals Are Good Friends?

    I agree to the most part with Henri. I think that when we do see the royals in public, they naturally are nice and courteous to each other. But, there is enough proof about certain friendships: Queen Beatrix and the Spanish Monarchs, Queen Sonja and Queen Margrethe II, Queen Elizabeth II and...

    Royal House of Savoy current events 1: 2002- March 2007

    This is very sad. I can't say that I feel bad for Vittorio Emanuele, because if this is true, and I am inclined to believe that it is, he brought it upon himself. I feel bad for his wife, Marina Doria, as well as his son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter. Regarding the incident at the...

    Princely House of Thurn und Taxis 1 (February 2004 - July 2008)

    On the website of the Princely Family, I was looking through the photographs, and came across one of a beautiful crypt where the members of the family are buried. It is such a beautiful crypt, and I was wondering if it was open to the public to visit? Also, if anyone had any other photographs of...

    Prince Franz Josef Wenzel (1962-1991)

    Thank you for all of your answers. I was wondering if there was a lot of press in and around Liechtenstein after his death? I have never seen a photo of a funeral in Liechtenstein, so I was wondering, are they private affairs in Liechtenstein? I assume that when Franz Josef II died, foreign...

    Prince Franz Josef Wenzel (1962-1991)

    What happened to Prince Franz Josef "Wenzel?" He was born in 1962, and died in 1991. He was born 12 years after Princess Nora, and died two years after both of his parents. I have seen only one picture of him, ever. This is all the information I can find about him. It's as if he didn't exist...

    Grand Duke Henri & Grand Duchess Maria Teresa, Current Events 3: Aug 2005 - Feb 2006

    Any place on the internet to watch the speech? I have found, after long searching, and using just my English (which was not easy on the non English sites) the speeches (in video format) of King Albert, Queen Beatrix, and Queen Elizabeth. I would like to watch it if possible. Thanks.
