Yes, I wonder what's new with him too. I saw a picture of him at Belgium's National Day but that's about it. I have to post so his topic doesn't go onto page 2. :(

Son Altesse Imperiale et Royale Prince Amedeo de Belgique, Prince Impérial et Archiduc d'Autriche-Este, Prince Royal de Hongrie et de Bohême, was born at the Cliniques Universitaires Saint-Luc in Woluwe Saint-Lambert, Bruxelles, Belgique, on Friday, February 21st 1986. He is the eldest of five children and elder of two sons of Seine Kaiserliche und Königliche Hoheit Lorenz Kaiserlicher Prinz und Erzherzog von Österreich-Este, Königlicher Prinz von Ungarn und Böhmen, and Son Altesse Royale Princesse Astrid de Belgique.

Probably one day after his birth the infant was presented to the world by his parents in the presence of his maternal grandparents and his paternal grandfather. About a week later Princesse Astrid and Amedeo left the hospital.

In 1986 he was christened "Amedeo Marie Joseph Carl Pierre Philippe Paola Marcus d'Aviano" by Cardinal Godfried Danneels in a Roman-Catholic ceremony at the Palais Royal in Laeken, Bruxelles, Belgique. His godparents are Son Altesse Royale Reine Paola des Belges (maternal grandmother) and Prince Philippe de Belgique (maternal uncle).

Amedeo was created "Prince de Belgique" on December 2nd 1991.

Since August 20th 2003 he is the fifth in the line of succession to the Belgian throne following his maternal uncle Philippe, Philippe's children Elisabeth and Gabriel and his mother Astrid.

He started primary school in Basel, Schweiz. Prince Amedeo de Belgique attended Sint-Jan Berchmanscollege in Bruxelles, Belgique, in the late summer of 1993 and then to continue his secondary school education Sevenoaks School, an independent, co-educational boarding and day school for boys and girls between 10 and 19, in Sevenoaks, Kent, England, around 2002. He graduated from Sevenoaks College on Friday, June 25th 2004, obtaining an international baccalaureate.

Yes, that picture was taken recently. It was taken on 21st July (Belgium's National Day) to be exact. The other photos of Amedeo which were posted by Carlota were at his birthday celebration, one day before his actual birthday.

I think it is very true that he gets better looking with every photo I see of him. =)

By the way, does anyone know for sure what he is doing now? Some people say he is going to the military and others say he is going to university.

D =)

I can't post my flower anymore =(

Were you laughing at me Hillary? =( I have seen some people post faces but they look a bit funny.

Since I can't post my pretty flower, I will have to do it the old fashioned way and write my name.

Danielle =)
