Hannelore's right, Paola's Dutch (or Flemish if you like) isn't good and that's a great shame. It aren't just the king and queen and the crownprince and his wife who should be perfectly bilingual, but the entire royal family. Paola doesn't set a good example. :(

So I heard! Such a pity, because it's such a beautiful language! ;-)
But besides all that, I think Paola is a very elegant woman, a real queen. And very stylish too!

Thanks for all these lovely pictures!

Antwerpeen is just a Flemish city, the capital of the Flemish country ....

Queen Paola was born in Italy, so it's possible that she doesn't speak perfectly Flemish ...
