I'm sad to hear that. They seemed happy together and she seemed to fit in so well with the family.

Agreed that we really don't know the context. However, I'd be inclined to believe that one does not smile for the camera when photos are intrusive paparazzi shots, though one likely might if they were willingly taken. So there's that. But on the question of the coffee mug...what in the world? I...

Agreed completely. Everyone is entitled to his or her own opinion. But they're also entitled to disagree completely with the opinions of others and I have to say that I completely disagree with the idea that the work of the BRF is non-essential or makes no difference. It certainly appears to...

I completely agree that these are the "completely and totally no questions asked essentials" but I would argue that being the public face of an organization, bringing publicity and awareness to those organizations, etc. are, in fact, essential. I think there are probably a lot of organizations...

I think that likely depends on your definition of "essential" and what may qualify based on that definition.

Completely agreed with all of this. While I don't see Beatrice or Beatrice and Edo becoming full time working royals both because of their own preferences and because of the preferences of the King and the PoW, I can see them stepping in and assisting and, frankly, I'd love to see it. I really...

Agreed. While everyone has jumped on my comment that he could potentially be showing her how to go about handing things like red box papers, etc. I also mentioned that Bea and possibly Edo's services could be needed over the course of the next few months. That "etc." certainly included the...

Possibly. But she is, constitutionally, a CoS and given the nature of a cancer diagnosis, treatment, etc. it's not unthinkable that her services may be needed over the course of the next few months. While I don't know the King personally, as I suspect none of the rest of you do either, he...

Agreed. I certainly think it's only right that Harry quickly made his way to the UK. I would also agree that in the early days following a cancer diagnosis chaos can be the order of the day as treatment plans are figured out, diaries are rescheduled, etc. so it doesn't make sense right now to...

I agree. For some time now, and particularly since her marriage which seems to have done absolute wonders for her, I've found Bea (and frankly Edo, too) quite endearing. I wouldn't be even a bit concerned should the King decide he could do with help from Bea and Edo with engagements. And...

My goodness, it's certainly been a rough start to the year for the RF. But, while a cancer diagnosis is never a good thing, it does appear that they've likely caught it early since it was not discovered based on symptoms but simply in the course of medical care. That, if we're finding a silver...

I read the article and it was a bit confusing on the timeline but it reads as though she and Edo visited together this morning, left, and then she later returned alone to Clarence House. We've heard before that Charles is very fond of his nieces and Bea is a CoS. This does certainly seem like...

Agreed. I have a soft spot for aquamarines and that's a beautiful tiara. She'd look lovely in it. Although now that you mention it, her Palmette tiara would also be beautiful with aquamarines...;)

Blue really is a nice color for Maxima. I, too, was happy to see her wearing her coats rather than using them to imitate superheroes. I'd like to see a closer look at the earrings with the first blue dress and I fully agree that her hair was awful with the first dress but is much more...

I can certainly understand the complaints about seeing her in the same tiara over and over again. That said, I love the palmette tiara and I especially love the versatility. I think we've seen it so far with pearls, emerald, diamond, citrine, topaz, and turquoise stones. I really hope she...

I have absolutely no idea as to the answer to your question but my goodness, that is absolutely lovely. I'd love to see that worn by the Princess of Wales or Princess Madeleine. Maybe even one of the younger princesses in line for a throne. Ingrid-Alexandra would be stunning in this.

Well, I suppose gray is better than brown though that's certainly a personal preference. That said, January is gray and dreary enough. We could really use a little color, especially from Maxima who is often the Queen of Colors with her wardrobe.

Thank you. I didn't have time to look it up but I was so struck by the odd angles and proportions of the new picture and it looked so very much like those horrible 80th birthday pictures we remember. Perhaps it's time for the Danish RF to seek out some new photographic talent....

Out of curiosity, is this the same photographer who took the pictures of Queen Margarethe with Fred and Mary where the angle was strange and everyone looked out of proportion? It certainly appears to me that it might be. The photo of the family has very, very odd proportions. I realize that...

A version of this has also been posted by the DM (no paywall). https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-12999953/prince-albert-separate-bank-accounts-mistress-love-children-charlene-unaware-claims.html

Oof. Maxima's looks are always very hit or miss for me but one thing she does well is color. Even if the outfits themselves aren't great, she looks great in bright colors. This drab, bland, boring, brown mess is awful. From the coat pretending to be a cape to the awful dress and the blah...

Well, all in all this is probably one of her better looks. Possibly because it's fairly simple. That said, I agree with other posters about the fit. The skirt looks far, far too long. I understand the concept of oversized but this truly looks like it was made for someone far taller than Meghan...

I've never gotten the feeling that theirs was an easy marriage and frankly that's for a lot of reasons and I think there's been a lot of people playing a role from the royal family to Letizia and Felipe themselves, the press, etc. This can't be easy on any of them, especially not on their...

Wishing Mia a very happy 10th birthday!

Glad to hear it's a benign condition and it's nice to see the King using his own health as a reminder for others to be checked and to pay attention to their health and symptoms, though certainly it would have been preferable for him not to have had to deal with this at all. Best wishes for an...
