Some men look so much better when they get a little older. The Prince would be very handsome if he would only lose some weight. They look so well "matched" these two.

I completely agree with you Odette! They do look like a perfect match. I think that they complement each other very well.

During his visit prince Laurent was shortly interviewed by SBS Showniews, a Dutch programme. He seemed to speak Dutch well actually. Princess Claire looked very good in that dress, even better on television.

On September 20th Laurent and Claire attended a fashion show of Stephen (...) -forgot the name. Claire was dressed in a black cocktail dress.
Anyway, RT Boulevard has a clip and an interview ith Laurent. For all the crtisism and such you have to give it to him that he is always willing to awnser the press. He says he usually wears classic fabrics :).

Look here for the clip!

Flemish tv show "de rode loper" also had an interview with the Prince, you can find it at the URL below, somewhere in the middle (at about 2:10) (very short interview though)

The first picture is adorable. They seem really happy lately.

Thanks iceflower!

The first picture is adorable.

Yes it is.
And Claire's top is great!

[LadyLeana]

Is it my imagination or is the Prince suddenly appearing more in public than he used to? Would the Royalty criticism have anything to do with that?
I'm glad they do, though. They seem to be enjoying themselves, and they do look so happy together. Typical me to have missed them...

For what its worth, according to 'Het Laatste Nieuws', King Albert II asked Prime Minister Leterme to keep an eye on Prince Laurent and make sure he keeps out of trouble. Apparently Laurent has a tree planting project in Libya and the last thing the king wants is a scandal involving Laurent ánd Kadafi.

[sgl]

Very interesting! Will Laurent be visiting Libya in the near future?

[LadyLeana]

I can imagine the King wants Kadafi on his good side... Especially since, if I am not mistaken, he bought some shares of one particular Belgian bank which has been in the news a lot lately... In not too positive terms...

[Al_bina]

From what I have read about President Kadafi, it may safely be guessed that he tends to be a difficult person to deal with. At the same time, I do not think Prince Laurent will start a squabble, thereby tarnishing Belgium's reputation in Libya.

[sgl]

I agree with you, Al Bina. It seems to me that Laurent is trying to keep a low profile, and not trying to cause problems. I would be surprised if Laurent did anything scandalous on this visit.

My wishes for Prince Laurent's birthday.
