Royals' Ex-Partners

[LaChicaMadrilena]

People always say Letizia her husband was her former teacher. That isn't true. He is a teacher literature but has never been a teacher of her!

He was working in the same school/college Letizia attended, but he wasn't her teacher.

 

[Her_Majesty]

Unbelievable, but there were men before Claus. I think Beatrix had a relationship with one of her former student friends called Bob Steensma, I believe. I think his father was an advocate and she even took him to the silver wedding party of her parents.
There were also rumours about a relationship with an Israeli shepherded called David, but for this story ask the Dutch people here. I believe this relationship has something to do with an earthquake in the Iran, where he lived and she helped to rebuild a village, but I’m not sure. And there were also rumours about her and Schelto Patijn, the former mayor of Amsterdam, when they were “dance-partners”. But just rumours. I don’t know it exactly.
But fortunately she found the perfect partner in her late husband.

There were/are also rumours that Prince Richard of Sayn-Witgenstein-Berleburg was after Beatrix' hand. Generally it is assumed that he acted as a sort of decoy though.

Thanks alot for this information. It's really interesting.
Prince Claus and Prince Richard were quite close friends , weren't they?

 

[Marengo]

True, I believe they were close friends untill the prince died, but they knew each other before Claus married Beatrix too. This episode caused a chill in their friendship though (according to the same rumours), but Richard recovered quickly enough with his Danish bride.

Has losing Wills driven Kate to take up smoking? | the Daily Mail

She looks really thin, a lot of women lose weihgt during breakups and I hope that is not the reason for her

 

[biboquinhas]

She is still havinf fun, just the way she did when she was dating william! She is really thin now, yes she is! And it doesn't look so good on her, but she likes wearing this shorts tight dresses so.....this figure turns out to be fine on her!

Great Kate
Tuesday 29 May 2007, New York

London: "Nice Weather For A Duck," is a headline in the Daily Telegraph today. Because it has been raining for three days, temperatures hovered at a sizzling 45 degrees Fahrenheit. Talking about weather is usually a cop-out, but this was remarkable...

Oh Prince William is being his old cruel, won't-tell, confuddling self. I think he and his friends are doing what they used to do, they are intentionally throwing out every confusing signal possible, so that all the signals get crossed and no one knows what to believe. They are tricky, that bunch. They know how to confuse us and they do it well. We will all know the truth when they are good and ready to give it to us. Prince William set things on his own terms a long time ago and he's keeping it that way. He is in charge of his publicity, no one else. Bow to the master, he deserves it.

What subject does he teach? Do we have a picture of him? I would love to see what he looks like!

 

[Eva-Britt]

I think he is a teacher literature.

He indeed taught (or maybe is still teaching ) literature.

Here are some photos of him:

[Chimene]

Literature, how wonderful! They look so young in the first pic. He's a pretty regular guy, and just as I thought, she was made for Felipe! Thank you very much for the info and pics.

 

[adelaide]

Strange destiny for Alonso Guerrero because he is know as the" Ex ". He is a very discret man but more than a teacher he is an autor, a novelist; it will be very difficult for him to be know as a writer if his books are only "regular". What do you think about that?

According that I read his new wife is also a teacher

 

[Chimene]

When I said he was a "regular" guy, I was talking about his appearance. Obviously, he teaches literature (a suject I studied and love) so his intellect is not in question at all. I've never read his book, so I can't tell you if they are just regular. Hope that answer your question.

The Sizzle Sisters: Kate and Pippa are one of the hottest double-acts in town | the Daily Mail


Kate Middleton under fire for attempting to "climb the class ladder" again. I'm honestly amused by the woman who claims that "aristos will close ranks" against Kate and her sister. Perhaps it would be beneficial to remind the aristos that the only reason that they are aristocrats is because their ancesters once sucked up to the royal family. Hypocrites, the lot of them.

Yes...a little. Maybe it is just the physical kind of woman that Prince Haakon likes...

It's quiet funny, it seems that for once is the Ex who is going to like the tenant of the title!!!!
In beleived that Eva Sanum was fair hair!

The 2 ex's of Felipe and Haakon, are far more beautiful than their current wives which just shows what these Cprinces were really looking for!

- in December 1997 Máxima moved to Chelsea in New York, where she lived at 225 West 20th street, Apt. 2W. She shared this appartement with a guy named Dieter Zimmermann, an American, with whom Máxima would have had a short relationship

i think i read this in some other site about máxima, and i believe this part of the post is not correct.
here
El sitio de Maxima Zorreguieta y Guillermo Alejandro de Holanda, prince Wilhelm Alexander Orange Netherlands, Beatrix, Argentine, Diario Accion, General Rodriguez, periodismo you can read some friends of maxima telling she had no experience with men before the prince.

and here El sitio de Maxima Zorreguieta y Guillermo Alejandro de Holanda, prince Wilhelm Alexander Orange Netherlands, Beatrix, Argentine, Diario Accion, General Rodriguez it says that Maxima relationship with Dieter never existed.

Princess Margarita of Romania dated PM Gordon Brown while they attended university in Scotland.

Thanks for posting that, I believe that I once read that this mr. Zimmermann was gay, so that doesn't make a relationship very probable. I also recall that Maxima was said to have dated an Argentinian guy from Italian descent in her early 20-ties, but as Maxima's friends and family is extremely discrete there isn't much known about her past possible relationship(s).
The same goes for CPss Mathilde, not much is known about her past relationships either but I once read that she dated a Belgian nobleman who broke her heart (they were hinting a painfull break-up anyway).

I heard this too: Máxima have dated an Argentinian cook from Italian descent. But no magazine told his name and like you said, no one have confirmed it.

But might do a nude Calendar wih body paint for Charity. If you does that, I can't imagine she really is still with William.

 

[CasiraghiTrio]

Well, let's hope "24dash" is churning out just more typical BS about the "nude calendar", for it would be very bad not only for Middleton, but also for the Sisterhood. Posing nude in the name of raising money for cot death? Bit of a cheap tactic? If her PR handlers advise her to do that, she'll be advised by me to get new PR handlers.

Richard Kay is claiming Kate bowed out due royal aides feeling it was becoming too big a media event. Although it does beg the question, why they didn't realize this earlier?

I assume the calender would be done tastefully sort of the like what the WI did in the film the "Calendar Girls" except with body paint? Although can you do tasteful body paint?

Clarence House has gone on record in another article saying that they had no part in Kate's decision and that it was her lawyers who urged her to drop out of the race.
