Needles to say, it says absolutely nothing about him but quite a bit about those who find it necessary to negtaively exhume anothers impediment, no matter how minor or severe.

Again, I don't see how it can be noted as a "problem" when the man still delivers his speeches and socially converses.
I would definitely classify his inabilty to express himself clearly in public as a problem, a big problem. He is a public person representative of his country. One of the few basic requirements for this job is to speak properly and clearly, what kind of image does It give when people don't understand what he is trying to say or that the crown prince looks nervous, insecure and can't stop moving while answering questions?

I also think this problem could be over come so why It didn't still? he is not a young boy he is a 40 years old man that known all his life that he is going to be king (and It's getting closer and closer) so what does he waits for?

Thanks for the pictures! Mary's outfit is pretty, although Mary herself looked bored, and Frederik looks as if he's ill.

The whole audience (not too many people around, heh?) looks bored and I can understand. Borg against McEnroe might have been exciting 20 years ago but not these days since age has been catching up with both of them Not even if I was paid to go I wouldn't want to see a senior guys tour match. It's rather sad than funny.

Well, I canīt see what is wrong in showing some of your true feelings, royals arenīt robots. And especially as in this case the two players werenīt there there for the couple (unlike a speech at some foundation for example). Mind you, I canīt see any particular boredom with Mary, the entire group seems rather distracted, maybe the pictures were taken during a pauze?

Anyway, why were McEnroe and Bjorn playing against each other? For a charity or to give themselves some extra pocketmoney ?

I agree with that, Mary is always a good sportswoman. She looked a little off during those pictures. Glad to see them together and well.

She had that slightly strained, fuller-face look last time she was pregnant ...

I dont expect royals to have smile son tehir face's 24/7 or show their feelings in public. Mary in some pictures did look bored but in others she seemed to be having alovely time.

The picture posted on the royals blog show no sign of bordem. Moving on, theyve also posted a lovely pictyure of Fred reading an mms message while Mary is trying to get a peek at it. Very cute !
