Royal style & gossip: now where's that baby??

[QueenOfTheAndals]

Sorry, I dropped the ball again!

Link to previous thread.

With Princess Charlotte’s birthday coming up on Thurs, I think we're unlikely to get any baby news until the weekend at the earliest.

It was reported on my local radio stations (heart Berkshire) Facebook page this pm that a car suspected to be carrying mm with a police escort was seen driving to frimley park earlier today (hoping this comment won't be deemed too childish)

Interesting iknowimcoming

Where is this baby?!

Is to tomorrow Labour Day?

And why is Prince William still in New Zealand?

I thought it was a 2 day visit to NZ.

Is he?

Is he still there? I assumed he was back by now.

Sorry, USA Today is a few days behind. You’d have to hope he would be back for their wedding anniversary and daughter’s birthday.

PW came back to the UK on Saturday.

He's got an engagement on Friday now, and he's surely already back for his anniversary, and Charlotte's birthday?

Sophie doing a sterling job in India
Reminds me of Diana doing her hospital visits back in he day.

I really warm to Sophie.

Prince Oskar is so cute giving his mum CPVictoria a smacker.

Throwback to the Dutch coronation
I’d seen Max’s outfit but I didn’t realise the princesses were matching.

The new Japanese Empress Masako

Thanks Curley. Look at those diamonds! I always think the Japanese gems are so huge and so white that they almost look paste!

I didn't realise Masako is 55. She could pass for 20 years younger!

Leti looks immaculate there. She is great at carrying off simple, clean lines.

Nice to see Masako looking happy. I hope that she has a bit more freedom now that she is the Empress.

I think Charles’ coronation will be like Wax & Max’s, ie a bit more low key, a bit more normal dress. I’d rather see Charles in white tie and tails rather than knickerbockers, that’s for sure.

Normcoreroyals is hilarious 😁😁

I am increasingly believing that she's already had the baby and the media will be furious when an instagram picture announcement happens.
