Queen Paola, she seems so down to earth

and I think Princess Margaret would have been a 'hoot!

If I could have chosen, I would have definitely chosen Princess Margaret because their was nothing boring about her and we would have become best friends and she would pay me a lot.

CP Matilde because she seems to be a combination of old world class and down-to-earth modernity. Plus she seems like a great mother. A good friend of mine is a prosecutor in Crimes Against Children in Brooklyn, N.Y., and went to an event sponsored by CP Matilde. My friend said she gave a lovely filmed speech (she had just given birth to her 3rd child and apologised for not attending in person) and my friend (who's not a royalty watcher at all) said she was gorgeous (likened her to Grace Kelly) even on film and the event was very well attended and organized. This is an issue I can respect.

1. HM Queen Elizabeth II - We share a love of animals, and she reminds me of the good qualities of my mother. She seems to have a lot of common sense, down-to-earth, and has seen so many changes. I would love to hear her talk about "the old days".

2. Princess Anne, The Princess Royal - I like her no frills, no nonsense approach to life, and that gets on with it. She is very honest and forthright, and doesn't suffer fools gladly. She doesn't seem to be haughty, and I don't think I'd be in any doubt as to my duties. I suspect that beneath her superficial toughness beats a heart of gold.

Yep, me too, for te same reason. And as far it is possible to know we are interested in many of the same subjects. I also think that she is a exacting employer though.

CP Maxima: She would be a lot of fun and easy to work with. She seems like the type of person who would always have you laughing. I would like to work with someone like that. Not stiff but very relaxed.

CP Maxima- I think she is an easy-going person.
CP Letizia-I do not really know why

HM Queen Elisabeth- I think in spite great age difference we have many things in common. And my respect to her is HUGE!

Any of the Belgian Royal women. From Queen Fabiola on down to Princess Astrid, they all strike me as a warm, noble group of women who I could learn a lot from.

Queen Elizabeth II for the same reason, I could learn a lot from this woman that I admire so much.

Princess Caroline would be an ABSOLUTE dream...even though I'd be a bit intimidated. She is so brilliant and elegant, and I'd be a little nervous about getting anything wrong. But I admire the Princess and I think she'd be great to work for.

Princess Cristina of Spain, I'd love to work for too. I'd certainly be kept busy and I'd get to be around her adorable children!

I would definitely NOT go for Mary of Denmark! That's for sure - she doesn't strike me as the most assistant-friendly, easy to please person ...

I would feel a strong respect, but also some kind of fear for Beatrix ...

Maybe Máxima ... due to the fact that we have more in common since we're both from Argentina - and maybe we could exchange some experiences...but mmmmhh no.

Willem Alexander! Yes, Willem Alexander ... in this case, it is always easier to deal with a man... royal ladies seem to be so demanding most of the times...

Queen Rania
Crown Princess Letizia
Queen Elizabeth II

All three are women with whom I greatly admire, and from what I have read and seen of them I believe their personalities would "mesh" with mine.

Queen Victoria and Queen Beatrix. Victoria was so down to earth with her employees (she treated them better than some members of her own family) & Beatrix because I love her style and she seems so friendly.

Snap! I'd choose all 3 ladies as well, especially Rania who attends some fascinating events and is involved with some life-changing causes.

I think I would add Princess Maxima to the list as well because I'd like to learn more about her micro-finance work.

I would love to be Edward and Sophie's. Just be allowing the world to see whom they really are I think that they could bowl a lot of people over. But it is not what they want, such a pity hidding your talents unders bushes and all. Besides they couldn't afford me.
