I read a touching little story in the Kenneth Rose bio of George V recently. It was on one of the two or three state visits after WWI to Belgium, the King and Queen Mary were lodged in separate rooms in different parts of the palace of Laeken, much to both their distresses. And during the night Queen Mary heard her door open, turned on the light and saw "his [the King's] dear, sad little face" peering round the screen, having found his way to her in the pitch dark.

Oh it's really touching and cute. Thanks for sharing.
 
Oh, that is so sweet. I think that I'm going to have to put this bio on my must-read list.

A very rare picture of the late Princess Leila Pahlavi (1970 - 2001) with her two nieces, Princess Noor and Iman. How sweet! Brings back the good ol' memories! :wub: :

Whilst I enjoy all the pictures, my very favourites are always those that involve grandparents and parents with their children. Love between adults is lovely but sometimes it fades away, but this bond that unites parents and grandparents with their broods is much, much stronger.
 
I agree with you. The recent graduation of Princess Iman Pahlavi is a great joy to the whole Imperial Family of Iran, especially to the former Empress Farah Pahlavi, who grieved bitterly after the recent death of her youngest son, Prince Ali Reza Pahlavi on January 2011.
 
BTW their wedding cake has a striking resemblance to the wedding cake of King Abdullah II and Queen Rania on their wedding day on June 10, 1993. This reminds me of the King and Queen of Jordan during the early days! How very sweet memories they are! :wub:
