chrissy57 said:Can someone please post a link to the statement that said that the Queen and Philip didn't attend because Philip doesn't like Sarah? (I don't want some tabloid speculation but an actual statement from a reputable source!!).
Lady Marmalade said:What else is new? Prince Philip is an old, dried-up, useless prune, whose ego would not allow himself to go to this party for not wanting to be in the same room as the Duchess of York. The past is the past, 14 years now....GET OVER IT!!!! She has proved herself with the saying "With age comes wisdom." I commend her and Prince Andrew on the way they have raised their daughters...unlike a certain Prince of Wales who should have paid closer attention to his sons after Diana died instead of going right back to his self-absorbed self.
Memo to Queen: This is 2006, tell your husband to shut-up, act like a REAL man, get in the car and go to his granddaughter's birthday.
Pity William and Harry care more for their hormones and their common girlfriends than their first cousin's 18th birthday.
Empress said:That's a rather rude statement, I find. ESPECIALLY since these are all assumptions. We none of us have any idea what ACTUALLY goes on within the Royal family. They are private, when possible, as they should be, and I think it a bit presumptuous on your part to make these statements. When you do become a member of the Royal Family and can appropriately and factually comment on these things, then please post such comments. Until then perhaps a softer tone would be in order instead of making disparaging remarks and telling people to "shut up"
Al_bina said:I do understand why Her Majesty and Prince Philip do not attend the party. I even accept the fact that Prince of Wales with Duchess Camilla are not going to be there. It is a rather unpleasant surprise that Prince William and Prince Harry are too busy to attend the party of their cousin. No one woudl ask them to stay till the very end, but, in my opinion, they had to make a formal appearance.
Skydragon said:The Queen and Prince Philip felt they were too old to attend, according to many reports. They also felt that it would stop some of the fun and make it too formal.
I don't believe that Philip would snub Sarah at the expense of his grand-daughter.

British royal PRINCESS BEATRICE is dismayed after learning a list of family members will be unable to attend her 18th birthday party tomorrow (15JUL06).

But than again I don't believe that Prince Harry had a big party, it will be interesting to see if Princess Eugiene has such an elaborate party when she turns eighteen. Maybe these types of parties are for the first born children only
