Royal style & gossip: don't be fooled by the rocks that they've got, they're still Katie/Leti/Maxi from the block

I quite like Charlotte's disco dress and Beatrice looks stunning too. Tatiana is still working the boho-luxe vibe and it suits her, but every time I see Andrea I wonder what happened as he used to be gorgeous! Caroline's dress seems to be having some sort of crisis - what's with the pink frilly bit??

Actually on seeing the close up of Charlotte's dress I think it needed to be fitted better. Visible underboob is never a good look!

The girl in the multicoloured dress is one of Stephanie's daughters but I'm not sure which one. Possibly the youngest?

Is the girl in the multicoloured dress not Caroline's daughter with Prince Ernst ?

Not a good look on Charlotte. It's the hair I think.
Her mother looks terrible!
Beatrice is just so stunning.

Yes @beanaseireann Princess Alexandra of Hanover

Is that a dogs face on Sarah Ferguson's shoes - looks like eyes and a dogs nose or is a very bizarre trick of the light? Either way they look bloody awful!

Thé rétro décoration is fantastic

Yes of course that's Alexandra, I'd forgotten about her. I thought she was still a little girl but she must be late teens by now. No sign of her disreputable father!

Eugenie at a film premiere in Hong Kong. I'm really not a fan of the fussy prints she favours. It always looks like her clothes are wearing her rather than vice versa.

I agree with the high neck and long sleeves that pattern is a bit busy for my taste. It's a better shape coming in at the waist than she wore to the hospital opening (was that last week or the week before?). But sometimes less is definitely more with print.

Eugenie always looks very buttoned up if that makes sense? High necklines?

I don’t know why Beatrice and Eugenie persist with high necklines. They’re both quite bosomy. It’s not flattering

Also, is that a little bump I see? Or too much lemonade, haha.

Well this is a very speculative series of tweets re the Cambridges and The Sun...

Blimey.

Though I had heard rumours of Wills around the time of Kates’s 31st birthday.

She shouldn’t have blabbed. That means he finished it with her. But she still shouldn’t have blabbed.

I don’t know what to believe

Important to remember it's just one reporter editorialising but some of the conclusions she reaches do make sense if it's all true. And it'd put a new spin on the William/Harry frostiness.

KP's biggest mistake was to threaten legal action. The story about a "rural rival" would've quietly disappeared if they had just ignored it.

It's a story that seems to be going no where is it?

I'm not sure if that's because there is some truth in it or if it's because it's that's nasty kind of gossip that sells papers and gets people talking but the papers are safe as they haven't said anything that can be proven to be untrue!

Whatever William and Kate do now, be it carry on as normal, undertake lots of joint engagements looking happy, have a staged party or engagement with the other couple, can be seen as an admission of guilt. Coming out and acknowledging it as a rumour will also just give the whole thing more steam! They are in a loose loose situation.

If he has done it and it can be proven a) what an arsehole and b) I think it might be the beginning of the end for the royals.

If he hasn't done it then it's a horrible rumour for them as a family hopefully the children are too young still to know anything but still it's selling papers/causing people to click on sites do it's unlikely to be the last!

Just found those very same tweets. Very interesting. I'm beginning to think No smoke without fire.

It would make sense with the brothers “feud”.

Also Cathrine has been looking stressed. The whole thing at Christmas with the scarf shuffle, I thought was all innocent but now. Aggh. I don’t want it to be true.

I really hope it's not true.

Although, in any joint engagements of late, K&W have seen relaxed & happy.

They are on show. She always seems 'overly' ecstatic about whatever she is doing. I find it annoying.
They wouldn't be walking around with a cob on even if they were arguing about who last emptied the dishwasher in the car on the way to the engagement.

I also don't want to believe it but the press definitely aren't letting up. And I don't see anyway the Cambridge's can conclusively shut the rumours so this one isn't going anywhere until something bigger comes along

A Sussex baby!
