Other than the appearance of Royal Photos, does anyone know how close Princess Benedikte is with Carina, her son's girlfriend? Was she close to Elvire, his prior fiance?

I don´t know if Princess Benedikte is cloes with Carina,BUT i do know that Benedikte and Richard really like her. I gues it is because they can se that Carina makes Gustav very happy.
I don´t know how the relationship was betwen Benedikte and Elvire but i gues it died out the day they broke of the engagement.
 
Today I saw Princess Benedikte and her son's girlfriend Carina shopping in The Royal Copenhagen Shop. They seemed to be very close; laughting and chatting. They were looking at the expencive Flora Danica dinner service. Maybe Benedikte tried to learn Carina about some of the finest danish design and culture if she is going to marry into the family...?

BTW - I knew thet Princess Benedikte was an elegant lady when out on official duties - but I have never thought her just as elegant and well-dressed in real life. A true royal!

From Paul Theroff's Online Gotha news page!!

According to Point de Vue, Hereditary Prince Gustav zu Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg (b.1969, son of Richard Fürst zu Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg and of his wife, née Princess Benedikte of Denmark) is engaged to marry Carine Axelsson.

Does this mean the issue with his grandfather's will was straightened out? I hope so :) Gustav seems very happy with Carina!

Could you provide a link to this information, please?:)

I believe that this must be a mistake. If Gustav, Prince zu-Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg, had been engaged, I am confident that a press release would have been issued.

/Lasse
 
So far it is just a rumor.

A press release has not been issued,and Gustav has said that an engagement cannot take place until things have been settled (his legal issues.) As of today, it seems that his case is still being dealt with.

Point du Vue, I believe, is jumping to the gun.
 
Oops, I thought I'd posted it. Here's the OG link: http://pages.prodigy.net/ptheroff/2006_2.html

I went to find it at Point de Vue, but I'm not very proficient in French and I don't know if they post what's in the articles anyway. Anyway, I hope it IS true and we get a formal announcement soon. :flowers:
 
Prince Robin zu Sayn-Witgenstein-Berleburg, only brother of prince Richard and so brother in law of princess Benedikte became grandfather for the second time in 2006.
His son prince Sebastian and his daughter in law princess Julie had their first daughter and second child: Stella.
Big brother Ferdinand was born in November 9th 2004.
 
Goodness, I completely forgot about Benedikte's birthday, which was on April 29. The Princess of both Denmark and Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg turned 63.

The gals at DRWs provided a short summary of the Princess. To read more please click http://www.theroyalforums.com/forums/here They also provided a short video link about Schloss Berleburg.

Nonetheless, I found more information about the German town which she lives when she's not in Denmark. Bad Berleburg, is a beautiful town and the castle where she lives, along with Gustav and Carina, is simply fantastic. Click here to see a series of photos. See this link to see what it looks like inside the castle.

If that isn't enough for your viewing pleasure here are a couple of more links to enjoy of the romantic castle

International Music Festival week at Castle Berleburg: For the 750th Jubilee year of the city, the cultural community as a presenter, together with the artistic director Luz Leskowitz follow a concert on its feet, which is built on continuity, but also with new elements of activities.

Meanwhile, I found an old Prince Richard [URL="http://149.219.195.51/studio/koeln/radio/themanrw/burgen_und_schloesser/klassisch.jhtml"]interview[/URL] in which he discussses the trials and upkeep of Schloss Berleburg. It's a good piece.

Is Princess Nathile heading for the olympics ?
I think at the championships Nathile ended up in Second place.
 
What and where was this event? I am assuming that it was some sort of equestrian event. Princess Benedikte looks very elegant.
 
Wearing glasses and hat she is really Queen Margarethe's Sister.
 
Thanks Emeralds and Opals for the translation - but they called Carina the wife of Prince Gustav! Benedikte looks exactly like Margrethe in that photo.
 
In the original untranslated version she is called "life partner".
 
Thank you for the article. I was wondering about what they did during the Christmas season. This sounds like a really lovely event.
