Wow! Uncanny? It's almost like her reincarnation! Spooky resemblance!

And what haunting beauties they are! :) Well in pictures for the late Princess Royal.

Gabriella Meets Whirling Dervishes of Turkey

Head covered by an all-enveloping scarf, Lady Gabriella Windsor was hardly recognisable as she mingled with worshippers at a mosque in the Turkish city of Konya. On a visit to one of the country's holiest sites, the society beauty donned the modest attire to see local Sufis participate in the famous whirling dervish ceremony.........

I also think its strange that Lady Gabriella and the Wales and Phillips do not interact that much if any. Even if they don't do it often, you would think you would on occcassion see pictures of them together.

[Paula**]

I also think that's strange too
But I think the fact that Ella don't interact with Wills is because of her mother's relationship with Diana

[james]

Andrew Morton in his book written after "Diana her true story" cited Princess Michael as one of the few Royals Diana not only still spoke to but whom she actually grew close too in the latter years of her life.

Was Lady Gabriella and her brother ever invited to any of William's Birthday and are they most likely to be invited to Beatrice's upcoming Birthday party?

[lady_windsor]

from what i understand, i dont think the queens grandchildren are close to Gabriella and Freddy anymore..so i dounbt that they would be invited to Beatrices Birthday.

Well, before her to the British Throne are only 30 people... than not big chances now. But if she would married some un-married crown prince...

Wasn't there a time where it was rumored that Lady Gabrielle and Prince Felipe of Spains mothers try to have the match as a couple? That was when the Kents visited Spain and there was a picture of the Gabriella, Felipe, and their mothers walking with them. Does anyone remember that?

[linneatherose]

I think she is quite pretty and she and Felipe would have looked good together and had good-looking children. I don't think she chooses the most flattering clothing though. She chooses pieces that age her, rather than ones that make her look young and desirable. Not to say she should dress in anything more revealing, but in younger styles. And I think she should avoid black.

Is lady Gabriella Windsor engaged to her boyfriend? They have been together for many years.

[kelly9480]

There hasn't been an announcement of an engagement.

[james]

I think she may have some sort of unofficial contract with the designer Catherine Walker (a favourite of course the late Princess of Wales). For the past couple of years at least Ella has worn Walker's clothes to almost every major event she has attended. The dress she wore at Althorp is by that designer as were the clothes she wore to the premier of the film "King Arthur" two years ago; Ascot in 2004 and the Queen's 80th birthday service to name but a few examples. The relationship appears to have started when Ella wore Catherine Walker dresses in her official 21st birthday pictures and although nothing official has ever been said I wouldn't be surprised if there was mabye some sort of trade off going on similar to Helen Windsor's deal with Armani. I know Helen OFFICIALLY advertises his clothes but it's also common for Royals and celebrities to favour designers unofficially for their mutual benefit and it's possible that this may be the case here.

P.S. I don't say any of this as a criticism but rather admire her good taste whether she has an "arrangement" in place or not.
