Loving the new title.

I don't think the pregnancy announcement means Harry and Meghan aren't expecting twins. They may not have known, twin pregnancies don't always mean two babies are born (I've had a twin pregnancy and lost a baby), the excitement at an initial announcement might have been too much and lastly, maybe they just want the fun of tadaa! There's two a la Friends Grin.

I agree there could still be twins but they're not obliged to share that with the public. A lovely surprise for the nation.

I enjoyed looking at the Diana photos too. Thank you. What struck me was in some she looks very thin as PPs have said: collar bones and arms certainly appear very slender. I think she was probably in the throes of her eating disorder in those day. I don't think it's a coincidence that she looks more strong, healthy and fit in her last couple of years. She'll have likely dealt with many of her demons, and come through the divorce.

She certainly looks slim does our Di in those photos.

I watched a doc on Netflix the other week about her, she lost 2 stone just after she got married. She looks amazing though, model - like as someone said up thread.

Love the idea of a daily blow out Grin

QueenOfTheAndals · 29/11/2018 16:33

I've also read that she lost so much weight in the weeks before the wedding that the Emmanuels had to refit her dress several times.

What's happened to her dress? Is it still on display at Althorp?

I think I read that the dress had been handed back to her sons by the current Earl Spencer.

Anne looks great in that photo, that's a nice suit. I wonder if Kate, Meghan, Leti etc will regret wearing those towering heels later on in life? Meghan's already had foot problems! (see previous thread).

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 29/11/2018 17:10

I don’t think Kate wears such skyscraper heels. She tends to wear them for evening do’s.
Recently she seems to favour a bit more of a block heel.

Cosmopolitan claims to list every pair of shoes Kate has worn
There are a few pairs missing, but the list and photos is impressive!

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 29/11/2018 17:16

I think Anne looks so chic in her white suit with black trim. Her figure is amazing; must be all those years of riding. ( Which also seems to have contributed to her stance; she looks like she has just got off a horse.)

UrsulaPandress · 29/11/2018 17:25

Those photos of Diana make me a bit sad. She was beautiful.

I wonder if Kate could get away with short hair?

itswinetime · 29/11/2018 17:27

Indeed anne suits a tailored dare I say almost power suit look.

Queen Letizia is looking fab in this coat as well today, Instagram leads me to believe it's an old favourite so probably not new to some of you.

Great video itswinetime our very own thread reporter.

QueenOfTheAndals · 29/11/2018 17:39

@UrsulaPandress I can't think of any royal women who have short hair these days apart from Charlene of Monaco. Diana was a bit of a pioneer that way!

Kate without her famous locks I'm clutching my pearls at the very thought, plus what would the tiara sit on?

Clionba · 29/11/2018 17:45

I think Kate's heels are high. Block heels or not, they're not exactly low!!

QueenOfTheAndals · 29/11/2018 17:47

Her hair is probably too thick for a short style. Meghan would probably look fab with a long bob as her hair isn't as thick.

Diana certainly was a gym bunny, she had fabulous legs.

Talking of Diana’s hair anyone remember when she grew it longer? if I recall the press weren’t keen, particularly when she wore it Princess Anne style!

Let’s hope Kate sticks to her luscious long locks.

Love the outfit Princess Anne is wearing upthread. Deeply elegant.

There's an interview with Carole Middleton in Good Housekeeping this month, about starting Party Pieces. She's looking good and I love the reverences to 'Catherine' in the text without any side note about who Catherine actually is Grin
