Royal style & gossip: hairbands and birth plans

Will Kate emerge from her Norfolk seclusion sporting a bigger than ever Alice band? Will the Mail and Express stories about Meghan get more ludicrous by the day? And will this thread see the arrival of Baby Sussex? All will be revealed in due course...

It is nice to see more recent photos of the kids. I totally I understand the Cambridges' wishes to maintain the privacy of their children but I think slightly more frequent photos would be good.

Link to Charlène please!

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 14/04/2019 19:51

Oh yes. The boots

Has she stayed on in South Africa?

When was that family holiday. Perhaps she’s been back to Monaco and then gone back again.

What the hell is “tragical”??

brizzlemint · 14/04/2019 20:41

Where is Louis in those photos? Also, Mike Tindall isn't the Uncle of the Cambridge children is he?

beachyhead · 14/04/2019 20:50

She looks quite normal in comparison to some other race goers!


CurlyWurlyTwirly · 14/04/2019 21:52

Lost my last post!
Mike is Aunty Zara’s husband so Uncle seems quite normal.
Thanks @paradyning for Charlene link. ( I had to google was desperate to see what the fuss was about)
More pics.( dm)

Charlene's outfit?

Spudlet · 14/04/2019 22:19

That blue dress on Charlene makes her look as though she has the most awful posture, and I'm sure she doesn't really! Does she?

I think Prince Louis gets his Pub Landlord look from Great Uncle Andrew Grin
At look at this cute toddler Diana.

Do you recognise the older bridesmaid & I think you'll definitely know who funny face is.

AmIbeingTreasonable · 14/04/2019 22:51

Zara is not their A so Mike is not their Uncle.

AmIbeingTreasonable · 14/04/2019 22:51

*Auntie

brizzlemint · 14/04/2019 23:05

That's what I thought but it's what that linked article tried to say! Still I suppose the DM is apparently known for not always having a full grasp of the facts Grin

Tbh my parents have cousins I call aunt and uncle so it's possible that's what the Cambridge kids call Zara and Mike.

Funny faces boy is the DoE? I can't place the little bridesmaid though.

Are the little bridesmaids Camilla and her sister Annabelle Elliot?

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 15/04/2019 05:48

Prince Loyis is identical to Kate as a baby, but I suspect he is more Goldsmith after Carole’s side than Pa Middleton

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 15/04/2019 05:48

Louis

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 15/04/2019 05:51

Louis looks a bit like “naughty uncle” Gary Goldsmith

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 15/04/2019 06:02

Yes the little bridesmaids are Camilla & her sister Annabel in 1952.

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 15/04/2019 06:03

And funny face is Philip. (That last pic gives it away)

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 15/04/2019 06:04

Queen Mary with the Queen’s father George VI

Funny faces boy is Prince Charles ?

Rhubarbisevil · 15/04/2019 06:45

It’s official. Crown Princess Mary of Denmark started the hairband trend 8 years ago
