It’s nice to see Charlene looking so well.

MmePoppySeedDefage · 21/07/2023 13:45

Charlene is looking so much better. Albert looks like a junior waiter in that awful jacket.

Serenster · 21/07/2023 17:33

I love that the Belgian Crown Princess is confident enough to go for a mahoosive hat for this service - even if it is a bit more suited to Sophia Loren on the Italian riviera. 😀 It gives me confidence in her future fashion choices!

iknowimcoming · 21/07/2023 17:48

Gosh Albert could actually be Charlene's dad in that photo! Agree it's fab to see her looking well again though

LadyEloise1 · 21/07/2023 17:50

I love the shape of Camilla's cape thingy.
Not a fan of Charlene's outfit.
You are naughty @MmePoppySeedDefage with your comment on Albert Smile
Princess Elizabeth looking very stylish and hats off to Mathilde for bravely wearing those heels on the cobblestones.

If Albert put on a bowler hat he'd make a fine Homepride character in that suit. He needs to go up a size or two.

I like Charlene's dress because it says I'm back.

ArcaneWireless · 21/07/2023 19:23

Charlene looks stunning.

Round Bert? Not so much.

And I say that as someone who isn’t friendly with torso buttons either. There’s allus summat trying to escape.

ArcaneWireless · 21/07/2023 19:25

I would like QC’s cape very much.

I fear though I’d look more like one of the panpipe Peruvians on the Fast Show. 😢

Ohpleeeease · 21/07/2023 19:33

Another vote for Charlene’s dress, it really suits her. Albert, in his cruise jacket, ooooh dear….

Happy Birthday to George!
He looks so nice here, relaxed and happy. Interesting that the photographer this time isn't his mum.

He was photographed in Windsor wearing a checked shirt and teal trousers

Prince George: New photo to mark 10th birthday

In a change of tradition it was taken by a photographer, rather than George's mother, the Princess of Wales.

It's a lovely picture isn't it @Maireas. Happy Birthday to him. 💙

I took the liberty of adding one of my very favourite George photos!

So cute! He'll always be reminded that he met Obama in his jimjams (George in the jimjams, not Obama).

That's a great photo of George he's looking more & more like Kate each day, though he was more of a Windsor (like his Great Great Grandfather George VI) when he was younger

Tippingadvice · 22/07/2023 03:43

I always loved the Obama photos and video.

He's always looked like Michael Middleton, right down to the fall of his hair.

Maireas · 22/07/2023 07:28

Yes, I think George is definitely Middleton. The whole face shape is totally Grandpa.

KillingMeDeftly · 21/07/2023 12:36

No Delphine??

I spoke too soon. Delphine doesn't disappoint! The silhouette is actually very similar to Kate's Trooping dress, the pattern not so much...

Maireas · 22/07/2023 08:27

Ok. Love the colours. The overall design not so much. Nor the shoes. Mind you, they're not white stilettos 😉

OP posts:
Serenster · 22/07/2023 08:30

Is that also an Andrew Gn dress? It doesn’t look anywhere near as well-made.

Maireas · 22/07/2023 08:32

I don't know - I know what Deftly means about the design, though.

OP posts:
Serenster · 22/07/2023 08:35

It’s an almost exact copy, but Royal Fashion Police on insta report it’s a bespoke dress Delphine had made from a fabric of her own design.

KillingMeDeftly · 22/07/2023 08:59

A closer look at the shoes, Delphine is never dull!

Ooh, different. Never dull indeed.
