has there ever been twin in the royal family?

robby86 · #43 12-14-2005, 11:33 PM

If the first child was a twin who would get the throne?

soCal girl · #44 12-14-2005, 11:50 PM

The one born first I'm guessing. Technically, they would be the first born. I would feel bad for the other twin if they wished to be monarch. It would be like "I was two minutes behind!"

Not yet, I haven't heard or read anything and the Court's website calendar hasn't been updated with a new calendar for after their holiday yet...

The Swedish Sports Gala this year takes place on 16 January.

when there are state visits to sweden the king and Queens banqutte is most often in the royal palace however the germany one was at drottningholm palace "how often has that happned"

where does the return banquettes take place generlly

ursulajohanna · #49 01-26-2006, 04:02 AM

The bankett for the german guests was in Drottningholm palace because the kitchen in the royal palace was renovated at this time!

Most of the return-banketts are in the Grand Hotel.

ursulajohanna · #51 02-09-2006, 06:34 AM

No, I think at all the last return-Galas by state visits (jordan and letland) they didn't worn tiaras.

Actually thats not the case. A friend of mine told me it would be the second twin born who would be cp. because the old time assumption was first concieved would be the last to come out.

No, its the same thing as for all siblings: the one that is born first is the heir.

I am looking for pictures of the graves in the royal burial ground Haga Park.
Especially those of Gustav Adolf VI, Queen Louise, Crown Princess Margaret and Prince Gustav Adolf and Princess Sybilla. Thanks.

Daneborn · #55 02-28-2006, 12:47 PM

The burial ground is a tiny peninsula in the Haga park.

Are you sure it's open to the public ??

I could be wrong, I just have the impression it's 'private property'

When Prince Bertil was buried some years ago the TV-cameras stopped following the mourning as they reached the Haga park. We didn't get to see the mausoleum or whatever it is on that little peninsula.

Yennie · #56 02-28-2006, 01:11 PM

A few years ago there was photos of princess Lilian visiting prince Bertils grave...
But I dont know if anyone can visit it or if its open only for the family

robby86 · #57 03-02-2006, 05:33 PM

With the news of the bird flu in Sweden it has brought up some quetions for me. If it gets big what will the RF do? Do they stay in the place in some kind of quarantine or would they go to a near by country were the king would deal with the problem from there? Have there been any instance in the past where the RF had to choose to stay or leave?

If no one knows maybe someone can point me in the right direction to find the info. Thank you.

The only thing I´ve heard is that the royal family will get the medicin Tamiflu. Other than that I dont think there will be any special evacuation or something like that...

as long as it doesnt goes from human to human we are all quite safe

mixer2002de · #59 03-04-2006, 06:22 PM

let them a private place

Yennie · #60 03-05-2006, 05:16 AM

This photo of princess Lilian at prince Bertils grave was published in her biography "My life with prince Bertil" and taken by Clas Göran Carlson
