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...

Max looks amazing as always. I hope Meghan gets her home birth but bet she doesn’t.

SlipperOrchid · 11/04/2019 00:01

Checking in . I’m far too excited about this baby and the name they choose! I expect their Istagram account was set up in time to announce the birth and we will get to see a baby’s foot or similar!

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 11/04/2019 00:27

Harry knows the game so I think we will see the baby's face in the photo.

Do you know what everyone thinks [but never says...] -how nice it would be if just one of Princess Diana's grandchildren looked a bit like her? Prince William's daughter looks like her other grandmother, the Queen, and his sons don't look at all like Diana, but more like Catherine's family. She was so beautiful, however troubled, and it would be lovely to see if the coming little girl bore some resemblance to her...

HM is actually Charlotte’s great grandmother. In the most recent pic of Charlotte ( the Christmas card) I actually thought Charlotte was starting to look a lot like William, who was renowned for being Diana’s doppelgänger when he was a young man.

We actually haven’t see Charlotte in 6 months ( kudos to William and Kate keeping the children hidden). So the portrait for her 4th Birthday may show she has changed again.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 11/04/2019 03:04

Charlotte’s eyes are different, but there is definitely a strong resemblance to Diana as a child.

Good morning everyone. Headlines today are talking about Will issuing a warning to the press about talking about him and marchioness Rose. Sounds tense. I hope its not true and the press are just bored of brexit so stirring.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 11/04/2019 06:58

I haven’t seen anything in the UK papers. I just googled and found this

To be honest, everyone is so caught up in Brexit, I thought that story had died a death.

Is Margarethe wearing a slanket??

Found another article on William's legal action but the U.K. press are remaining schtum on it. God know Brexit is far more pressing a problem!

I loved Maxima's white dress from the other night. I'm getting married next summer and that's the sort of dress I'd wear. Might leave the tiara at home though Grin

Both magazines are quoting in touch magazine as their source, Hmm

Wetdogloveshubert · 11/04/2019 07:55

Thought some of you would appreciate these hairbands I spotted on holiday this week in Italy. Hope it posts...

queenofarles · 11/04/2019 07:56

articles not magazines

Wetdogloveshubert · 11/04/2019 07:57

Second time, apologies.

QueenOfTheAndals · 11/04/2019 08:12

Well yes they're quoting In Touch as the source of the rumours and say they're not a reliable source. But the point of both articles is to report on the legal action (ie letter from William's lawyers), which doesn't come from In Touch.

Yes there's a definite look of Diana in that photo of Charlotte... I'm looking forward to seeing photos of publandord Louis for his birthday! I hope MM gets her home birth if that's what she has planned.

queenofarles · 11/04/2019 08:47

But how did the daily beast get that information queen? No official source says that, except it has come to their attention. Very much like the twitter writer story last week.

What’s really interesting , is their article about Oprah, here,
This is no criticism of Harry , he means well, it’s just that Oprah is notorious for pushing controversial issues, I don’t think the show will be anything like Harry hopes for it to be.

queenofarles · 11/04/2019 09:09

I just love this ! three generations, wearing the exact dress, the original is from 1972

Of course Meghan will get her “home birth”. They’ll just move a hospital into Kensington Palace or wherever she lives!
I do think it’s odd when people think the lives of the extraordinarily rich bear any relationship at all to ours!

QueenOfTheAndals · 11/04/2019 09:18

@queenofarles Jackie has another granddaughter who should wear that as she looks very much like her! people.com/celebrity/see-jackie-kennedy-s-lookalike-granddaughter-rose-kennedy-schlossberg/

Ooh congrats @Queen on the wedding!
How can you not wear a tiara?!

queenofarles · 11/04/2019 09:41

You are right queen Rose kenndy Schlossberg looks so much like Jackie and Lee . I always thought Tatiana was the eldest , but actually Rose is the eldest.

I’m adding this picture to my favourites, for the purpose of showing it to DH in case he moans about me buying another Chanel jacket . Wink

QueenOfTheAndals · 11/04/2019 09:59

Thanks @CurlyWurlyTwirly! I actually do have a tiara but I wore it at my first wedding so not sure I should wear it again! But it would be something old...
