Royal style & gossip: who'll wear the most Colour at the Trooping?

[QueenOfTheAndals]

Previous thread

What neon shade will HM wear? Will the DoE attend? Will Kate have a new coat dress? Will Meghan make an appearance? And which of us will be able to identify every random Windsor on the balcony?

All will be revealed tomorrow...

More that she has big boobs atm and needs to accommodate them.

I think she looks different as she's put some weight on. Still looks amazing.

We didn’t see anyone arriving at BP apart from the Cambridge’s sans children, and likewise the Sussexes.
Why wouldn’t Archie be there? Best time to introduce him to the wider family.
The Cambridges have 2 nannies and there were probably other staff around to help.
Maybe Meghan gave him a bit of formula to tide him over?

Kate looked great today, liked HM’s outfit too. Wasn’t as struck on Megan’s but agree it was appropriate and did what she needed it to.

Louis’ outfit was one of Harry’s, or maybe a copy thereof ...

Meghan was criticised (unfairly IMO) for wearing an off the shoulder pink outfit last year so maybe she wanted to be more low key this year.

Really surprised that the DM is headlining on Meghan having rushed back from maternity leave and sporting a new ring rather than on Louis stealing the show,

Although I suppose I am not that surprised.

Missed the whole damn thing delivering children to Parklife.

Meghan did look different today but I think it's just because she's still carrying some extra weight in her face.

@UrsulaPandress It's so predictable - if she hadn't been there then they'd have said she was lazy. Now she's rushing back from maternity leave? I didn't notice Kate being criticised for doing the same last year!

DM lazy again stealing their article from mumsnet, even using the push present quote.

I didn't notice Kate being criticised for doing the same last year!

Indeed in fact Kate appeared even earlier than Meghan at the wedding but that isn't the narrative is it! There were lots on lovely moments today why to they have to focus on the wrong things always!

MM just looked tired around her eyes as most mothers do and I think it was more noticeable as her hair was pulled back.

Did anyone else think the balcony was almost a bit to crowded this yeah or was it just poorly handled getting everyone out. If you look at the photos Beatrice, Eugenie Sophie Edward ect they hardly made it out of the doors

Haven’t had a chance to read but just saw the photos on Istagram. Meghan looks exhausted. Utterly exhausted.

@Arbell1 No British media outlets published those photos and I think the moment was edited out of the wedding coverage that went on YouTube later.

The balcony was ridiculous... they need to dis- all those Kent grandkids

Argh posted too soon 🙄 Meant to say dis-invite the Kents. I think once Charles takes over the balcony will only have the families of himself, Anne, Andrew and Ed.

See that's what I thought Freddie Windsor and his wife had loads of space but the queens own family were squashed in the middle with not everyone out

I didn't spit Sarah Chatto or Lord Snowdon on the balcony and they're more closely related than the Kent grandkids!

Why being that up, Ardell?

Yes wtaf was that about? Seriously not impressed with you bringing that up.

Indeed Queen I know the older Kent's and Glosters are still work and have carried out public duties for years fair enough if they are there but as the queens own family is so big now having the children and grandchildren of those distant royal types over her own family children grandchildren ect and then yes her nieces and nephews is just crazy to me. The main members should come out of all three doors then if there is space the rest can stand at the back.

Hmm I've reported that post and my response too. As they say on MN, interesting first post...

I spotted Meghan new ring hours ago and never considered mentioning it. Could have been my baptism into being a thread member! 💍

How gorgeous is this photo of Charles smiling at Louis?!
