I think wombats are sooo cute!

Default Interracial Royal Couples

I think I read on one of the other threads that Prince Albert of Monaco's cousin Baron de Massy is married to a coloured lady. Please correct me if I am wrong.

He had married three times. One of his ex-wives, Anne Lutken, died (from drug use?) back in 2001. She was Norwegian born. His first wife was Maria Martel Quintina, and his second wife a certain Cecilie, who was born in Guadalupe. I'm assuming she was Latin American, although I'm not exactly sure.

Gabriella's boyfriend is very, very handsome. They do look very good together. I suppose that I see things a little different, my husband is part Asian part Spanish, so therefore I guess that I like men with a bit of color to them!

Q. Noor is less than half Lebanese. Her mother is of Swedish origin and her paternal grandmother was Irish....so at best she is quarter Lebanese .

please could you refrain from using the derrogatory phrased, COLOURED lady and use the term Lady/Woman of Coulour? Message from a Woman of Colour.:p :)

That is the word I was looking for, intercultural. Many of the examples given wouldn't be considered interracial, more intercultural, or in some cases, different ethnicities per se. Prince Maximillian and Princess Angela are an example of an interracial couple.

You're confusing race with nationality. These are not interracial marriages. Angela Brown and Prince Maximillian of Lichtenstien -- now that *is* an interracial marriage.

Prince Of Wales Is Not Greek, His Father Was Born In Greece But Thats Where It Ends. Late Diana Is Also Scottish And Irish.(most Scots, Irish,and Welsh Don't Like To Be Lumped With The English, Unless They Are)

I Thought This Forum Was About Interracial Royal Couples. The Way Some Of You Are Going All The Royals Should Be Considered Interracial.

Maybe We NEED POPSICLE To Better Explain What She Meant.

I myself am not fond of referring to people by the skin of their colour or any other sort of racial terminology, but usually when people refer to race they mean caucasian vs. black vs. mongoloid etc.
If we called groups of people who spoke a different language and came from a different culture a different "race" then we'd have hundreds of races all over the planet. Thats a little problematic.

my point.
Some of the countries listed by Roshanah haven't even existed for a century. Does that mean those "races" did not exist a hundred years ago
