Picture details

Belga confirms it is the Viscountess Grimston...and she looks pregnant in one of the pics!! So her father the Duke will be a grandfather soon, and the Earl of Verulam will soon have another heir..if it is a grandson!

Belga won't allow me to search for the ladies day, and when I open the links it shows me pictures of Princess Victoria's wedding events.

As in the former Rosanagh Viola Alexandra Innes-Ker? Wow... I did not think aristocrats did the coach rides with the Royals..but pretty cool! She was a bridesmaid at Charles and Diana's wedding.

Actually she was a bridesmaid at Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson's wedding.

According to Prince Michael's website he and the Princess also attended today and will attend again tomorrow so they will probably be in the carraige procession tomorrow.

Here are the zimbio links of day 3:

And this Daily Mail article also has some pics although the caption
does not have anything to do with the royal family:

** Royal Ascot 2010: Emmerdale star Roxanne Pallett leads the fashion pack on Ladies' Day... with TWO winning looks **

So far Sophie (here pictured with Prince Mohammed and Princess Haya)
wears a quite similar style as to the colours and combinations during these
first 3 days.

Why? That would only be relevant if C&C had announced that they were not going to the wedding because he was unwell, and instead they went to Ascot.

Lumutqueen · #**368** 06-18-2010, 05:52 AM

Well we know that he is not attending Ascot due to his illness.
He isn't attending the wedding of Princess Victoria, most likely due to his illness.
So if he turns up at Ascot either today or tommorow, obviously well enough to attend Ascot, why can he not attend the wedding?

1) Do we know if he was invited?
2) How many invitations were sent to the BRF?
3) Edward and Sophie are the ones who are representing the Queen as has already been announced so it wouldn't be right to then have Charles and Camilla turn around and expect to go.

I think it is a presumption that C&C are not attending the Swedish wedding because of his illness. Its not often that you see Charles (or other senior members of the BRF) fraternising with other European royals publicly, so I had always thought them appearing at this wedding would have been a bit of a long shot.

I am assuming that Charles & Camilla would have been invited, and if they had wanted to go, they would have represented HM in place of Sophie & Edward.

Day 4

The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh arrive on day four of the
Royal Ascot Meeting at Ascot Racecourse, Berkshire, June 18.

And for those who missed seeing the Kents during the last days,
today they are pictured:

Well ... Prince and Princess Michael looked nice as usual.

1. Yes we know he was invited.
2. Charles, Camilla, William, Harry, Edward and Sophie recieved invitations.
3. I never said anything like that, I just do not think it would be right for him to attend events at home such as Royal Ascot that happens every year, and not attend Victoria's wedding. He has attended all four other royal heir weddings, only missing Prince Frederiks.

He has attended four other royal heir weddings, I don't see why he would not attend this one. It would be a perfect event for Camilla to attend aswell.
Why else could he not be attending, other than his illness.

Very chic, the best dressed this week I think. (of the Royals that is)

Al_bina · #**376** 06-18-2010, 04:14 PM

Thanks a lot for the photo!

Princess Michael looked chic, indeed. The hat is a new addition to her hat collection, isn't it? The Countess' of Hopetoun ensemble appeared to be flattering as well. An animal print scarf added a nice touch a light brown monochrome ensemble.

I think that she wore that hat years ago but perhaps not recently. There's a picture coming to my mind of her wearing a nude-tone dress with it, perhaps during the 90s or even the 80s. I like that hat shape. It flatters many kinds of faces.
