I think you've got to refrain from TTC for 6 months after visiting a zika area. I don't think she's pregnant - her coat on Friday is hardly evidence!

As someone said earlier I think she purposely dresses like that to avoid bump watch when and if she does get pg

I’m thinking that Fergie considered this as her job much as Kate, although a Duchess is called a “Princess of the United Kingdom”.
However Fergie was divorced a quarter of a century ago Her only access to the RF is through the girls.

A Duchess isn’t automatically a Princess, but if you marry a Prince, you are a Princess by marriage (like Kate, Meghan, and Fergie was)

But that’s not he reason she said it... she was rushing to get somewhere and had just been asked if she was Queen. She was trying to bring the conversation to a halt... it looks like so she didn’t miss Eugenie leaving.

I think the coat was just unfortunate. I don't think she's pregnant. Also they've only just got married after a fairly short courtship. And she's married into a very different lifestyle. I'd want to do some adjusting first.

QueenOfTheAndals · 14/10/2018 08:56

I don't even know if it's that - a loose/oversized silhouette seems to be her favoured aesthetic in general. Some said her wedding dress didn't fit her but actually, couture is meant to be body-skimming not bodycon. If you look at Givenchy's previous muses like Audrey H and Jackie O, nothing they ever wore was too close-fitting.

Robbie Williams daughter was unbelievably cheeky, i guess she takes after her dad, shouting out like that.

EmGee · 14/10/2018 09:11

littlebookofcalm the exact thought went through my mind. Precocious (and not necessarily in a good way). Clearly got bags of confidence.....!

QueenOfTheAndals · 14/10/2018 09:15

Does Robbie live in the US these days? His daughter sounded like she had an American accent.

ChicagoLil · 14/10/2018 09:24

Theodora definitely has an American twang.

serenmoon · 14/10/2018 09:26

Her mother is American. I think she was quite rude actually, she would know Fergie isn’t the Queen so she was being cheeky. I still don’t know what their connection to the bride and groom is? It must be close to be chosen as a bridesmaid.

Minimammoth · 14/10/2018 09:32

I love Eugenie’s evening dress in the mail today. Stunning style on her.
I also wonder how many Tiaras Her Maj has in her collection.

beanaseireann · 14/10/2018 09:37

Paradyning
You are right.
Daisy married Charlie - not Melissa's ex husband.
That marriage didn't last long.
His unreasonable behaviour was cited for the divorce.
Melissa was a beautiful bride.
I disliked her outfit at Eugenie's wedding.
Daisy Jenks was a beautiful bride too.

LittleBookofCalm · 14/10/2018 09:51

Do a lot of the tiaras and other jewellery come form Queen Mary, and wasn't she famous for Demanding presents, such that if she came visiting, people locked away their silver Grin

QueenOfTheAndals · 14/10/2018 09:52

Yes, Queen Mary had very taking ways! And she was never a beauty but nobody wore jewellery and tiaras like she did.

I heard it said QM was a kleptomaniac so yes did like to take a few things!

QueenOfTheAndals · 14/10/2018 09:56

So many that Friday was the first time Eugenie's had been worn @Minimammoth!

AhoyDelBoy · 14/10/2018 09:57

@Minimammoth there was a Cartier exhibition here in Australia a few months back featuring some of the Queens tiaras (if I remember rightly the tiara the DoC wore to her wedding featured). I would have LOVED to have gone but unfortunately it wasn’t to be.

Minimammoth · 14/10/2018 10:06

I looked at one of the exhibitions, but only 4 were illustrated. Not including the ones lent to Meg and Eug.

GreyPJs · 14/10/2018 10:20

@CurlyWurlyTwirly As ever, context is key here.

The exchange between the girl and Fergie was caught on video, on YouTube. No lip readers necessary. Fergie is trying to dash down the steps to the carriage after the ceremony. I would have said “yes” to the Princess question too. She only had a fleeting moment to reply; she’s not exactly going to get into a long winded discussion about it all!

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 14/10/2018 10:20

The Eugenie tiara has never been worn before. It was bequeathed to the Queen Mother I think 75 years ago.
Lots about it on the royal order of splendour blog.
I’m hoping that now there are a few more young married women in the RF we will see more jewellery.
Apparently Máxima has shedloads of Jewellry so that State dinner should be awesome

QueenOfTheAndals · 14/10/2018 10:20

Kate's was the Cambridge Lovers Knot tiara but Meghan's was just said to be Queen Mary's tiara, but I don't know which one as she had several! My favourite was the Meander(?) tiara Zara wore, as it was so unusual and striking.

@serenmoon The families met on a yachting holiday a few years ago and really hit it off. Eugenie has described Robbie as the brother she never had.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 14/10/2018 10:21

Had t seen the video, it was just something I read in the paper. I stand corrected.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 14/10/2018 10:22

Yes it was John Caudwell phones4u yacht. He arrived by helicopter for the wedding. Natch.
