I sense that Kate and William will have no more. With HG a third child must have been a struggle, let alone a fourth. She is now in her late 30s too. (I don't know her personally :-) but I cannot imagine a woman with HG happily entering a fourth pregnancy!).

AhoyDelBoy · 19/11/2018 13:16

No, I don’t think there’ll be a no. 4 either. I was surprised when they announced the pregnancy with Louis tbh as thought they’d stick at 2. There’s a good few years we’ll have to put up with the tabloids declaring she’s pregnant again though!

AhoyDelBoy · 19/11/2018 13:17

I’m just glad we got a princess! 👑

Camilla wears only English couturiers to public events, even very low key ones. Each of her outfits costs around £6k excluding jewels and accessories. Her hats are by Rachel Trevor Morgan and not one costs less than four figures. She has very expensive tastes, as do her daughter and daughter-in-law. Judging by the price she paid for Ray Mill and for her son’s house in Acton, her own means are fairly modest. There’s definitely a PR agenda to obscure how expensive she is to keep whilst publicising the extravagance of Kate and Meghan.

Charles married Camilla because the Queen told him to!

queenofarles · 19/11/2018 13:33

I sufferd from HG too , after giving birth I didn't even think I could go through with another pregnancy , but now I don't mind having another child , even though I exactly know the symptoms.

The more I read the more disgusted I am by how much the RF spend and how entitled they are.

UrsulaPandress · 19/11/2018 14:06

What happened in Australia?

QueenOfTheAndals · 19/11/2018 14:14

Nothing, the Australian tabloids just make up any old shit and publish it. They've been doing it for years.

The Macrons are paying a state visit to Belgium. Brigitte is old enough to be Mathilde's mother yet dresses in a far more youthful manner. Her grey coat is tres chic.

I was referring to puzzled's post about Camilla supporting Charles. Or not.

Paradyning · 19/11/2018 14:45

Wow Charlene is looming very unhappy at this national day event!

I love her hat!

Paradyning · 19/11/2018 14:45

*looking

VanillaSugary · 19/11/2018 14:55

To be fair, they all look pretty depressed, especially Princess Stephanie!

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 19/11/2018 14:56

Look at Emmanuel Macron kissing Queen Mathilde’s hand. The old French charmeur!
I don’t mind the way Mathilde dresses. It’s not the same style, but it’s the same sort of expectation for Kate as well. I mean what woman dresses so formally outside a wedding; since about 1958?
Someone comparable in their position and wealth, eg the First Ladies of the USA or France have dressed in contemporary clothes and look like chic business women.

Spudlet · 19/11/2018 15:01

I love Brigitte Macron's outfit. So chic.

Goodness me though, the royal family in Monaco look utterly fed up - did something happen?!

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 19/11/2018 15:02

The Monaco Royals have an expression fit for Armistice day. They look more cheered up on the balcony.
Charlene's hat is gorgeous, it's like the sort of thing Sarah Chatto would wear

Spudlet · 19/11/2018 15:08

I actually had to go back and check it wasn't a memorial of some kind. They look so fed up. Charlene in particular looks utterly miserable.

queenofarles · 19/11/2018 15:20

Brigitte macron dresses exclusively in LV, i think they are all specially designed for her. the macrons and Arnaults are buddies, I remember Carla Bruni as First Lady in Custom made Dior , gorgeous! Very fifties but not quite , her makeup and hair made her look contemporary.
LVMH and First Ladies is a win win situation.

user1457017537 · 19/11/2018 15:23

I have got to say that I think Brigit Macron is the best dressed and most stylish out of all the people discussed on here, including DOC and DOS

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 19/11/2018 15:35

I think Brigitte Macron dresses appropriately for her age and station and looks pretty sexy for a woman in her 60s.
However First lady Style is different to Royal style.
I think the best dresser is CP Mary.
She manages to look Princess like but modern, even if she is at a State dinner with full sash and tiara. Although she has to wear an awful chain with a giant elephant hanging off it

Charlotte Casiraghi wasn't there because she had a baby a month ago.
Her MIL is Carole Bouquet 'scuse the french link, but you get the gist. That child will probably be stunning with Carole and Caroline as its grandmothers.

There was also a lovely picture of Caroline with armfuls of grandsons!
She another loyal to one designer. She seems to only wear Chanel; as does Princess Alexandra of Hanover.

UrsulaPandress google "Camilla leaves Australia early" ... it seems she did the same with the tour to Africa too

If reports are to be believed, she "doesn't want to take too much on" and "doesn't like flying"

queenofarles · 19/11/2018 15:57

Beatrice always looks stunning, she must have a fabulous wardrobe!

The rest all look terrible.

QueenOfTheAndals · 19/11/2018 16:15

Beatrice is fabulous - she's an Italian aristocrat so i'd have expected no less from her on the style front!

And her wedding dresses were all stunning. That white Armani was just perfection.
