It's nice to see the entire family together! I really like this Christmas card.

[BELTRANEJA]

Kings of Greece were attending the annual dinner of the Society of Greek Mastology, it was held at the Britain Hotel, Athens. The dinner was intended to raise funds to help women with breast cancer

so dashing looks costis. my greek is poor but i like to call him costis because he is a darling. and i love queen annemarie. so good to see a real royal couple. )))

Costis sounds cute, the Greeks shorten Constantine to Costas but Costis is nicer and kinda friendlier . He used to be a good-looking guy and a good athlete. He had won the gold medal at the Olympics u know that ?

The king without a kingdom, Constantine II of Greece, is currently in Iceland. He arrived on February 17th, and will stay for the whole weekend. Constantine II is in the country for the executive meeting of the International Sailing Federation this weekend in Reykjavik.
The former king of Greece is the enthusiastic honorary president of the federation along with King Harald of Norway, Visir.is reports. Constantine II has been an avid sailor for many years and even won an Olympic gold medal in the sport in 1960.

thank you!! King Constantine is Honorary President of the International Sailing Federation, since 1994. He was previously vicepresident since 1964 to 1994. He is also member honorary of the International Olympic Committee since 1974 and since 1963 is member of the International Olympic Committee

i found a video of costis and family. i was in tears when i saw him cry. knows somebody what has happened here?

[Nikolopoulus]

It is a mixture of the two visits the Kings of Greece and their family made the Palace of Tatoi, first as owners in 1993 and the second, unfortunately, as guests in 2002. They did a tribute to the Tombs of the Kings Pavlo and Federika .Second, the name of the King is Constantine, it is not Costis.

[la_noblesse]

But why, I think it's very cute that our friend from Russia calls him Costis. Nobody ever corrected Queen Elisabeth for calling him Tino, friend Nikolopoulus. I have not heard the name Costis in ages, it brings to me such dear memories. And how sweet of you Yekaterina to get tears for having seen the ex-King cry. He probably felt overwhelmed in front of his parents' tombs the first time they allowed them to visit Greece in 1993, with the exception of 1981, when they were allowed to spend few hours in Tatoi for Queen Frederica's funeral. This is the first part of the video I'm referring to.

[Yekaterina]

for me he is costis, only for me. do you think he would be angry about it? me not. it must have brought back memories so much to him. very emotional. i love men who are not ashamed when they cry. he was such a handsome young man is still so handsome. not one of his boys looks as good as him.

[BELTRANEJA]

I do not see in these images to the King of Greece weeping at the tomb of the ancient kings. I see, one son emotioned next the tomb of his parents who can NOT hardly utter a words, when he remembers them by the emotion, that's very nice

[stef]

Thank you!! very nice. It would be Kostas, Konstantinos is Kostas. I do not identify him with Costas, it is

He woouldn't be angry that's sure, he wouldn't mind at all. There are many short types that come from the name Constantine in Greek, Costas or Kostas, Kostis, Tino, Dinos, Konstantis. If you love him and wanna think of him as Kostis, it's your thing, so be it. Katja is a really cute person .

Is there a new contact adress from their Majesties residing in Greece or does his office stay in London forever?

[stef]

The Kings still have their address in London, they live there, but they will live in Greece, in Porto Heli , the king said this in November, when he received a trophy of sailing in Athens, he said they had thought about moving to Greece but he did not specify the date.
