I remember that article as well. I just realized that it wasn't Vanity Fair who got it wrong but Vogue...

I guess I should remember my sources before I start complaining (even if it is on the behalf of a member of my favorite royal family).

It included the picture of him in military uniform in what I'm assuming is a palace room background.
Can u please post that info about Prince Guillaume over here.
Thanks

It was the 9/03 Vanity Fair, the 20th Anniversary Issue: Young and Royal--Europe's Thoroughly Modern Monarchies. It's the one with Prince William on the cover.

Funny thing is that after all this time of hating the beard it's finally starting to grow on me.
Sorry...but I just think that's a great pun...hehe.

Honestly, I think he looks quite distinguished with or without the beard.
I would post the article in some form, but I think that would violate the copyright and I'm not looking to start trouble, so I'll just post a summary.

It's not really anything that isn't already known:

That his official Grand Ducal House is the House of Nassau, who his parents are and their formal titles, what his siblings names are, his entire formal title (His Royal Highness Prince Guillaume Jean Joseph Marie, Hereditary Grand Duke of Luxembourg, Prince of Bourbon-Parma, Prince of Nassau,) and his birthday.

It mentions schools he has gone to, the languages he speaks, sports he likes, and duties he has as honorary chairman of the Board of Economic Development of Luxembourg and with the Kräizberg Foundation.

The photo included is one of him in military dress and was taken at the Grand Ducal Palace.

I don't understand though why more royal men don't have beards. It's like it's an unwritten rule somewhere. Honestly, I think Guillaume is the only royal I have ever seen with a beard. I wonder why?

You may want to try the other thread under Luxembourg Royals. There is a special thread on this topic, The Next Hereditary Grand Duchess of Luxembourg. However; I didn't know her name was "Micaela". Interesting...

Hi Susana28,
Do you have a link or perhaps a picture you can provide? Where did you hear her name? I tried Googling her name and the only thing I could come up with (in English) was a quote from "a 23-year-old engineering student" with the same name regarding Berlusconi, with no mention of Guillaume.

Unless they got engaged (which is to assume there is a relationship) I doubt it will ever be confirmed.

Apparently, TRF is msn.com's favorite royal site (oh and this is about Guillaume), although that "queen" comment is mostly unfounded...

Prince Guillaume has a lookalike! It's actor Aaron Stanford who was in X2.
