I don't know - might be. I will searched for Pics of David than maybe we can compare. I thought that it might be Ivar Romsey or Ivar Mountbatten. Possibly noone we know.

Does anyone know why Sophie didn't attend Chelsea? Seems strange she didn't attend as she attends every year?

I have a strange feeling things aren't right between Edward and Sophie...we never see photos of them together anymore, and she never accompanies him on his trips abroad etc. I hope I'm wrong, but I just have a strange feeling.

Perhaps she is slowing down her pace. Maybe she is working on another child? I do hope so.

I don't know why she didn't attend but I do know that in order to pull out of any engagement especially at such short notice takes permission from the Queen and I doubt that she would agree without a good reason.

Prince Edward to visit families of fire heroes

The families of two firefighters who died in a firework factory explosion are to receive a royal visit.
Prince Edward has announced he will meet relatives of Brian Wembridge and Geoff Wicker when he visits Sussex on Tuesday (May 29).
Mr Wembridge, 63, from Crowborough, and Mr Wicker, 49, from Heathfield, were killed during a blaze at the Festival Fireworks site at Marley Farm, near Ringmer, in November.

Edward had two official events during the last days you can read articles about.

He visited a new adventure centre at Grafham Water on 1 June 2007.
An article can be found here --> Article "Prince gives seal of approval to centre"
And he took a tour of Braywick Heath Nurseries on 6 June 2007 --> "Prince Edward on tour"

The British Moderators have decided to discontinue the Lady Louise current events thread as Lady Louise has no "current events" independent of her parents.

This thread has been renamed 'Earl and Countess of Wessex and Lady Louise current events'.

Buckingham Palace has announced Edward's agenda for his trip to the Falklands. It is quiet an extensive trip marking the Falkland War and many of his own patronages. Unfortunately Sophie will not be going with him and he will also miss Ascot and Trooping. On a personal note his will also miss father's Day but will arrive back in the country on his wedding anniversary.

Sophie pulled out of her visit to the Royal Cornwall Show yesterday, again at the last minute. Prince Edward attended alone. Their private secretary said that Sophie was 'ill, poorly' .

So this year, the Countess could ride in the first carriage again uncless the York girls there. Last year she was in the second carriage with Princess Alexandra of Kent. So Edward will not only miss Trooping the Colour, he will miss another two big events: The Order of the Garter (So sadly he was just installed last year and missed this year so we will not be able to see Sophie turns up) and Ascot!

I hope that Sophie gets well very soon. I hope that it is not something very bad.

I hope she is okay, she has always been a favourite of mine.
Also, it does seem rather sad that we don't get to see them
as a couple, often on engagements.
