Fantastic new pictures of the family were made today, June 2, 2012.


Princess Astrid will be 50 on June 5 and already celebrated her birthday with several family members!

Only Queen Fabiola, Crown Prince Philippe, Crown Princess Mathilde and their children were not present.

Where were the Crown Prince family? It's a shame they weren't there.

Prince Philippe attended an other event, and princess Mathilde was with the children at school, they were performing at a school spectacle.

Lovely pictures.

According to the article princess Mathilde was present at the lunch with her 2 daughters, prince Philippe was abroad and Queen Fabiola was sick.
 
Lovely photos. Great to see Astrid's children together.

It say that Queen Fabiola was unable to attend too, and she felt unwell. The article says that Mathilde did not attend as her children had a celebration at school. Nice to see that Laurent was there too with his family. The princess looks great for her age btw and seems to be one of the most sympathetic people of the family!

Was the lunch after the official photo shoot? I guess a few of her Habsburg and Luxembourg/Liechtenstein relatives may have been there too. A pity that Archduchess Margherita wasn't included in the pictures as she usually is.

She looks great for her age! Nice to see that most of the family was there, pity the rest couldn't make it.
Any idea why this was celebrated before her actual birthday date?
 
I think they did a pre-celebration to allow her working children to be there.
She is wonderful and what a smile !
Queen Paola was not in her good days.
 
I must say, astrid looks better at 50 than at 15, or 25;)
 
Auntie , you are absolutely right!
The same for Princess Margriet of the Netherlands.
 
I love the new pics of Astrid and Lorenz. The princess looks fabulous.
 
She looks great. Astrid and Lorenz look like such a sweet couple in the new official pics.

Princess Astrid looks magnificent.
She also has got a very lose (and good-looking) family.
 
Great official foto's. I love princess Astrids dress.
Prince Amedeo is so handsome and sweet. He helped with blowing out the candles and then 'toutched' princess laetitia marie's hair to say 'well done':flowers:
