Royal style & gossip: summer is coming, tiaras better be too!

[QueenOfTheAndals]

Previous thread

And as promised, here's a guide to the acronyms we use on these threads:

HM - the Queen
DoE - Prince Philip
PM - Princess Margaret
QM - the Queen Mum
W&K - William and Kate
H&M - Harry and Meghan
C&C - Charles and Camilla
B&E - Beatrice and Eugenie
Max & Wax - Maxima and Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands
CPV - Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden
HCP - (Hot) Carl-Philip of Sweden
CPM - Crown Princess Mary of Denmark
Mar & Fre - CPM when she’s with her husband, Frederik of Denmark
SWFM - (Single White Female) Marie of Denmark, on account of resembling several other royal women!
HH&MM - (Hottie) Haakon and Mette-Marit of Norway
SFF - (Silver Fox) Felipe of Spain

I think that’s all of them??

Jesse Webb - current nanny for George.

This presumably means Charlotte has her own nanny.

Is Spanish Maria the ‘head nanny’ or only Louis’s nanny.

How does that work?

A quick search says St George's chapel seats 800. That guess list is nowhere close to that and there were not 100s of empty seats so I assume it's a list of recognisable, identifiable guest list rather than a comprehensive list.

Is the DOC wearing this dress. ?

Of course it's a floral dress & floral earrings for DoC!

Beatrice Borromeo looks ethereal.

Cambridge kids are beyond cute.

I wonder which medal the Chelsea judges will award Kate? Tricky .....

I think it is the maxi version of that dress Queen.

I remember the commentators at the time saying that although the chapel held 800 only 600 were invited (yes I know saying only 600 is ridiculous).

The Chelsea photos are incredible and will knock the anniversary pictures off the front pages. Lovely to see Louis walking!

LGW second dress is gorgeous !!

Sophie Winkleman’s shoes !

Some truly shocking dresses at the evening reception, someone is wearing a truly bizarre tiered full length gown, the kind you see at Carnival season.

Thanks for the info Cassandra!

Well done who predicted Kate at Chelsea in literal floral dress shocker!

Sophie has tights on with those shoes

Sweet brothers 😍 and as usual when there’s an event on I get behind on the thread overnight. Loving the new garden pictures of the Cambridge’s!

So there are two Jemima Goldsmiths??

Technically yes: Jemima Goldsmith Khan (sister) and Jemima Jones Goldsmith (wife of Ben)

What amazing photos of the cambridges at chelsea. Loved their bare feet in the little stream. How may gardens are now going to have a rope wrecking ball?! I hope Amazon Prime is prepared!
It might be just me; but William was looking rather hot in his casual clothes. he has a good body!

@senecafalls I started watching suits back in2015 too. Mainly for Harvey Specter and the clothes
Beatrice Borremeo shows us how to do Victorian nightie!

Usually there is a coachLoad of royals on preview day of chelsea. I would actually like to see Kate's garden in more detail.

George and Louis walking
Apart from the eyes the resemblance is astonishing!

Ella and guests evening outfits

Ella's dress could certainly start a trend for wedding gowns. It is sensational!
I also really like Pippa's dress. And who is the hot man she's with?. (Definitely not her husband).
Beatrice is definitely showing a lot of flesh. I 'd hazard that's another Self Portrait dress.

So there are two Jemima Goldsmiths?? not only that , Bens current wife and Zacs ex wife, could be mistaken for twins, both former models. also I remember zac’s ex had a catering thing too.
Zac’s second wife is a Rothschild and Bens ex was Rothschild ,sisters if I’m not mistaken,

They don’t seem to branch out when dating don’t they?

Yes sisters. (With a penchant for infidelity)

It might be just me; but William was looking rather hot in his casual clothes. blush he has a good body
I thought so too

There's a fresh video of the DoC talking about the garden this morning. Bless her, she's obviously very nervous about being on camera, but speaks well about the point of the garden collaboration.

I love the bare feet too, it's really natural. They show up as loving parents. Not the point, but it would have been good to have a cuddly shot of William and Kate looking over the children.

Ben Goldsmith is only 38!!
he looks much older than Zac.

Ella's evening wedding gown was beautiful.
She looked fab.
Sophie Winkleman had tights on at the wedding with those white shoes

The tights at the wedding were the least bad part. Did not like her white stilletoes; is that Essex girl irony chic?
Her evening outfit with the clumpy black shoes was awful.

Agreed Curly re the white shoes and the black shoes.
James Middleton's girlfriend looked great at the wedding in her £50 dress.
Proves my point you don't have to spend sh*tloads of money to look stylish.

There had to be some washing of Charlotte's feet judging by the photos of her swinging on the rope swing at
Chelsea
The grubbier my dc get the more fun they've had.
Lovely photographs.

Lovely family photos from the Cambridge's, very natural. That was nice to see on IG this morning (I'm avoiding anything that might have GoT spoilers until I've done the school run, nobody speak to me!)
