There are a whole lot of princesses who will be cutting a swathe through the hearts of many in a couple of years. And most of them destined to be reigning Queens. I think it's only Denmark and Britain who have male heirs.
It's going to be fantastic!

LarsErickssong · 27/04/2021 20:37

Both those girls have their dads height, Letizia will be looking out of place soon enough! I think always look absolutely beautiful in the outfits they choose.

paradyning · 27/04/2021 20:43

I'm sure Leti's dress is a rewear. It looks great with the snake print shoes.

Cheeryblossom1 · 27/04/2021 20:45

Loved Kate's casual look today, she does casual so well!

LilyTheMink · 27/04/2021 21:17

Yes and glad to see skinnies aren't out on her.

RomainingCalm · 27/04/2021 21:57

I thought the photos of Kate and William today showed them at their absolute happy, relaxed, outdoorsy best.

Kate's jumper was lovely, I think it's the one she wore back in December when they did their train tour of the UK. I even quite liked William's coat.

Yes, plus Monaco and Luxembourg.

Kate always gets the country /relaxed look bang on, she carries it off so well...

Looking at the photos of Her Maj and the two new ambassadors today, with the exchange of letters performed via a video link between Windsor Castle and Buckingham Palace, I was reminded of those 1950s sci-fi films when the deep space explorer eventually discovers the ancient computer still controlling the long abandoned planet.

So I was a bit disappointed to see Her Maj in a pretty floral summer frock and her pearls! I do wish Angela would encourage a change of Royal hairstyle, perhaps softer Royal curls.

MotherofPearl · 27/04/2021 23:24

Great photos of the Dutch and Spanish Royals. I'm not keen on Max's turban though. I think you're right that Leti's dress is a rewear, @paradyning, and very chic it is too.

AdaColeman · 28/04/2021 00:10

I love Leti's shoes and bag!

AdaColeman · 28/04/2021 00:21

The Dutch princess Alexia and the Spanish princess Leonor will be attending the school in the Vale of Glamorgan at the same time, at the start of the autumn term. I expect there will be some high jinks!

Maireas · 28/04/2021 17:59

I liked Leti's black and white coat at the previous event. She's looking good,nice hair and accessories. I like the way her daughters dress, always appropriate, never boring. The younger one is taller! Both going to be tall like dad.

Lucky them. I lived near Atlantic College when I was growing up and would have LOVED to go to that school.

BeaLola · 28/04/2021 19:53

Wow the Spanish and Dutch princesses always look so lovely - don't think I've ever seen a dud outfit ?

RomainingCalm · 28/04/2021 20:05

They do don't they BeaLola. Always very appropriately dressed both for age and occasion but also modern and stylish.

MotherofPearl · 28/04/2021 20:37

The Spanish princesses always confuse me! As you say Maireas, the younger one is the taller, so this always throws me. I agree that they always look lovely. I'm another looking forward to all the European Queens on the horizon! Leonor in Spain, Catharina-Amalia in the Netherlands, CPV and then Estelle in Sweden, Ingrid in Norway, and Elisabeth in Belgium. Who have I forgotten?

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 28/04/2021 23:10

I think that's all of the future Queens.
Lovely photos everyone.

Catherine & William celebrate their 10th wedding anniversary tomorrow & have released 2 official photos.

The last 10 years have certainly flown by!

And she's chosen ice blue.
Nice pics though.

Maireas · 29/04/2021 06:18

Those pictures are so nice, thanks Tracy!

Her dress is by Ghost. Not my style at all but she looks nice. Great hair, as always.

Maireas · 29/04/2021 07:46

The picture on the left mirrors the engagement picture. I read a while back that Kate gets nervous with the posed pictures, but she looks relaxed here.

Lovely photos, made by their happy smiles and close body language, and evoking memories of their engagement photo.

I'm not keen on Kate's dress, it's very similar to the Elie Saab dress she wore at Ascot in 2019, altogether too "Edwardian tea party" for me. Also the cold pale blue isn't a good colour for Kate.

megletthesecond · 29/04/2021 08:56

Looking back at the wedding, her McQueen dress was stunning.

RomainingCalm · 29/04/2021 11:44

They are lovely photos. I like the Ghost dress but would have preferred it in a different colour rather than the pale blue.

It seems a world apart from the blue Issa engagement dress that I never liked much.

And yes, her wedding dress was stunning. I always loved the one she changed into in the evening as well.
