I hope too. The photo is quite revealing, although it can only the pattern of the outfit.

Anita looks pregnant!

This is an old picture of Anita from earlier this year (pre-wedding) attending one of the celebrations right before Queensday.

Anita was certainly not pregnant then as she walked down the aisle four months later looking very slim.

As someone else commented in another Dutch thread, let's not engage in this endless speculation of Anita/Aimee is pregnant. Don't get me wrong, I love the Dutch royal family, particularly the van Vollenhoven family and it will be wonderful news when it is announced that Anita and Aimee are pregnant but let's wait for that moment so that we can enjoy it when it comes. It's rather anti-climatic to speculate about it for months and months and when it's announce it's rather disappointing as we've been speculating about it for months now.

Let's keep the focus on present-day activities by the couple, not on future activities of the couple.

Pictures from the Christmas event from Princess in the Amstel Hotel in Amsterdam, 19th December 2005. One without watermark and the others with ugly watermarks from www.fotoleovogelzang.nl

Thank you, misshelen! These are lovely photos of this couple. Did PC get a different haircut? Somehow he looks different to me.

I believe this was at a party organised by that horrible owner of 'Princess', Aad Ouburg (?). Usually Prince Carlos of Bourbon-Parma is there, I always suspected he was payed by the parvenu-owner to come, but as a van Vollenhoven-prince is coming now, I assume I was wrong. The Duke of Parma also attended the party, along with several dutch 'celebreties'.

I read an article about the party, apparently Prof Pieter van Vollenhoven was there as well, receiving a check from the organiser to support the victims of traffic accidents (a charity Pieter is involved in).

Does anyone know if there has been some news of the couple lately or have they slipped under the radar now that all the news about their wedding is getting old?

I was wondering the same thing? Any news about amy and the youngest son of Princess Margriet? Can't remember his name!
Thanks,
Linda 85

Well, since Pieter-Christiaan, Anita, Floris and Aimee aren't a part of the Royal House anymore, they're much more private than Maurits, Marilene, Bernhard & Annette, who we don't get to see that often too... :( Such a pity, because I love the Van Vollenhoven branch of the DRF. But it's undertandable. They're all working in a normal job and have just little functions within the Royal Family. Most of the charities and stuff are for W-A & Constantijn and their wives.

Happy 34rd birthday to H.H. Prince Pieter-Christiaan of Orange-Nassau!

the dutch caption :

Prins Pieter Christiaan gaf zaterdag het startschot voor de Nationale loopdag. Daarna liep hij met een aantal bekende atleten over Park de Hoge Veluwe. De Koninklijke Nederlandse Atletiek Unie (KNAU) organiseert zaterdag in samenwerking met haar partners de eerste VGZ Nationale Loopdag. Op zo'n 30 locaties verspreid over heel Nederland kan men op een vrijblijvende en laagdrempelige manier gratis kennis maken met de loop- en wandelsport.

perhaps someone can translate it?

here's more from ANP

I'll try to translate. But be aware that it's been some years since I studied in the Netherlands and tried to learn the language. For dutch posters please correct me if I'm wrong.
Here goes...
Prince Pieter Christiaan opened the National Running Day on saturday. He then ran in the park "de Hoge Veluwe" with some known athletes. The Royal Netherlands Athlet's Union did on saturday together with its partners organize the first VGZ National Running Day. In 30 locations all over the Netherlands one can liberating and easy manner get to know the sport of running and walking.
