Their fault entirely. Mine were fighting the Black and Tans, but even so.

😂😂😂
Definitely VERY BOLD for this thread !

I am shocked 😮
Mind you one of dh's recent ancestors ran away from home (England) to join the army, specifically the Black and Tans.

Never mind putting down for tiaras, I'm still miffed that my folks didn't buy a beach hut at hengistbury head when they had the chance.....they go for £300k these days.

Half term this week, so I'll try and join in. It's been a hard few weeks so I'm hoping for a bit of a lazy week all round.

Yes, for 'medical reasons' apparently

Leticia has had quite a bit of work. She looks quite different to her wedding pics.

Leticia has had quite a bit of work. She looks quite different to her wedding pics.

She hasn't had as much work done as the gossip keeps saying. She had a nose job and uses botox like millions of women.

This is how Letizia looked in her journalist days when she was 30 years younger.

She was so pretty and soft looking then, she has very low body fat now which I think makes her face quite severe looking. I think it was Courtney cox who said as you get older you have to decide between face or ass.

Maireas · 23/10/2023 08:23

I can see from that early picture how much her daughters look like her. Although I think that Leonor has a little bit of Queen Sofia.

Just love Max. Bet she'd be fun on a night out

I'm sure we all look very different from photos from 20 years ago! I don't think Letizia has had anything done except the nose job and the Botox and filler that so many women over 40 in the public eye have.

Maireas · 23/10/2023 09:27

Yes, I look different and I've had no work done! I think she looks better with slightly shorter hair, but that's subjective.

If we look at our photos when we were in our 20s, we look completely different to today. I'm 63 y.o. and when I look at old photographs in my 20s is like looking at a child, My face was round and plump full of collagen. My lips were fuller and my eyes were twice as big as they are now. And I haven't had any cosmetic procedures. Yet.

Letizia is getting old like we all do. But her face is the same (except for the nose job) but older. Her lips are thinner, her eyes are smaller and her chin is as prominent as it always was.

She has a strict physical routine of yoga, cardio and zumba to keep her in shape. Frankly, I can only be envious of her commitment. It takes serious perseverance to nutrition and exercise to maintain her body @ 50.

The Princess of the Asturias awards, and I think Leti, Leonor and Sofia all look very chic. Leti looks fabulous, that's such a flattering dress, Aquazzurra shoes and fantastic hair. I really like Leonor's navy outfit, and Sofia's dress. They all look effortlessly glam!

Maireas · 23/10/2023 17:45

Leti's dress is Carolina Herrera, I think after Hugo Boss, her favourite label!

Max in Kenya in (very) bright yellow. Note the big earrings. Not for me but I admire anyone with enough self confidence to wear such a bold colour!
And I might have missed this one from the other day but I like the outfit and she looks so natural with Willem.

Leonor has picked very different stuff from Leti and her sister for the last couple of outings.

Eaumyword · 23/10/2023 22:15

Love both of Max's outfits there 👍

KnickerlessParsons · 23/10/2023 22:17

King Willem always looks as if he can't believe his luck when he's with Max 😁

justasking111 · 23/10/2023 22:23

Max has worn some lovely outfits in South Africa. Now in Kenya looking sunshiny.

I think i read that our royals were off to Kenya next year.

Here's the Kenya itinerary.

Blimey royals are like buses, none for ages then two lots in a week 🤭

justasking111 · 24/10/2023 09:09

Love Max in the tweed suit.

Maireas · 24/10/2023 19:38

Max is great. Of course.
I'm not keen on the canary yellow, but the other outfit is nice.
