To me the most romantic are:

1. Infanta Cristina & Iñaki Urdangarín: 4 kids, 8 years of marriage and still in love as the first day, they only met for a year before they got married, it was like meant to be:)
2. Princess Astrid & Prince Lorenz of Belgium: 5 kids, 22 years of marriage and they still hold hands like teens
3. Prince Felipe and Princess Letizia: the looks, the gestures, etc
4. Crown Prince Haakon & Crown Princess Mette-Marit: he fought for his true love as his father did and she got the entire fairy-tale ending
5. Crown Prince Phillippe & Crown Princess Mathilde: the way they look at each other, the way they hold hands, etc

I think that is a lot of royal couples very romantics:
Albert and Paola
Margrethe and Henrik
Juan Carlos and Sofia (sometimes.... :p )
Frederik and Mary
Willem-ALexander and Maxima
Felipe and Letizia
Haakon and Mette-Marit

But i don't know who is THE most romantic man and woman...

Juanita, I think it is beautiful that you can't narrow it down to one male and one female. I guess these are very romantic times...

It's difficult to choose, you know??
Because all of they are romantics wich one on their way and they love each other but some of them don't show their emotions and their fellings...

Juanita, You made a great point!! :)

Therefore, if I may, I'd like to modify this question to say:
"Who do you think is 'The' most outwardly visible romantic royal male and female?"

Without hesitation : King Harald of Norway . He fought for ten years to be able to marry Sonja and he said that if he could't get her, he wouldn't ever marry anyone else . That's true romantism ... :) :) :)

I think it is true love, Love and romance may sometimes not correlate, ie:you can be in love with someone and not be romantic, as it is not always everyones nature to be so, and vice versa, someone can have a really romantic nature, but not be really in love.

I'm going to say Rainier and Grace, not only for their longevity as a couple but also for the glamour factor of a royal marrying a movie star. Also, Rainier really seemed to be completely lost (for lack of a better word) after Grace's death, and I believe he loved her til the day he died.:(

i don't think it's that "easy" to claim which is which more romantic.
in the years, looking at pictures of royals,.. i can honestly say there's 2 type : those who likes to show their affections in public, and those who prefer to keep it private.

Frederik & Mary certainly shows how in-love they are with their many many kisses in front of public. yes, they're modern and youthful, and i think that's a good thing.

WA & Maxima certainly on different occasions show how affection they are to one another, not lots of kisses, but their gestures tell all.

I particulary adore Haakon & Mette-Marit. it seems they can adjust themselves to show their affections. sometimes, they're not afraid to kiss in public (like they did in london back in 2002/2003), but lots of time we see them kissing in private but photographed (like when they're holidaying in brazil). Their gestures tells all too.. i like back when MM's pregnant with IA, Haakon sort of just hug her from behind and hold her belly (?). they seems so sincere and not 'over the top', just perfect.

As for those who doesn't show their "romanticness" too often in public, it's certainly not a bad thing. Look at Philippe & Mathilde! yes, they didn't do that big kiss on their wedding balcony, but look at them now. even more in love than they ever been. Philippe's gestures toward Mathilde is so affectionate and sweet.. shy shy but you can see how in love they are.

The same goes for Felipe & Letizia.. i particularly adore them when you see how they seem to manage holding hands or just looking adoringly towards one another, even on official events. Day by day, growing more in love and caring...You can see they're not only loving, but seem to grow respect to each other. Their eyes & looks somewhat describe how they feel.

and that's just some of the crownprincely couples... i'm also fond on how Cristina & Inaki seems so compatible and grew more in love by days (look at how adoringly Inaki kisses Cristina's forehead when they left memorial for madrid bombings), then there's Laurent & Claire (possesive and sincere... that's what i see from them), Pavlos & Marie-Chantal (although lots questions them, but look now, 10 years after their marriage, and grow more 'n'sync' each day), and how about the Dutch couples, talk about Constantijn & Laurentien, Maurits & Marilene, Bernhard & Annette... just wow.. they're clearly romantic.

So, i really don't think, just because couples don't do that public kiss or what-so-ever, that they're not romantic. it's just different for each couples... :) :)

Spot on. They are my pick too. It's in the eyes. The way they look at each other.

I agree so much with you, Purple! I think they will be in love forever. I hope the same for all the other royal couples, but about Philippe and Mathilde the Love and Admiration for each other are evident. Such romantic couple!
