William & Catherine enjoy their trip to Australia and announce a second pregnancy at Christmas with a daughter, Elizabeth Diana Caroline born in June 2015

 

[episcogal]

I absolutely HATE to think of this, but my darling little Queen Fabiola is just wasting to nothing. She's so tiny and thin - I wouldn't be surprised (but would be heartbroken) if she is welcomed home back into the loving embrace of her dear Baudouin.

 

[An Ard Ri]

Spain

Cristina and Inaki will not divorce

The Cristina & Inaki saga will no doubt be one to watch (again) in 2014!

 

[Mariel]

No predictions here, just wishes. I would like for Tessy and Louis to be restored to the line of succession in Luxembourg, not that they are likely to do anything with it--just an honor for being loyal parents and supporters of the family.

I would like to see some twins. How about twins for Charlene, two big strong boys who are swim champions and sailing champions and tell everyone "surprise!" Then no more specs about which of the Casiraghis will be called upon to take the throne. But I would like to see Gad and Charlotte marry.

[Lord_Royal]

Britain

Princess Beatrice will take on an expanded role, taking over many duties held by Princess Alexandra and The Duke of Kent.

Princess Michael of Kent will enjoy a career renaissance with her novel being turned into a TV series.

The Yorks will reunite, publicly, if informally.

 

[MARG]

Britain . . . The Yorks will reunite, publicly, if informally.

Aren't they already?

 

[Ish]

They've not actually reunited, it's just rumoured that they are going to. I somehow doubt we'll get anything more than that unless they officially reunite and remarry.

 

[RJC]

I remember a child being predicted for Charlene and Albert this year...so hopefully next.
Pregnancy for Victoria.
I think Wills and Kate will wait until George is a little older and everyone has recovered so expect pregnancy announcement towards end of 2014 for 2015 birth.
I thought Madeleine had already confirmed she was having a boy, either I'm mistaken or people think the media is wrong.
Kate to wear few tiaras not seen in public for a while.
Would be nice to see pregnancies for Stephanie and Claire.

Madeleine has confirmed that she is expecting a girl, not a boy. It's been reported in interviews as well.

Thank you free2 and my apologies...shouldn't have been so lazy and double checked.

 

[Lee-Z]

Had to share this one apparently we are not the only ones with 2014 predictions

This belgian magazine predicts few royal marriages in 2014, because there are very few elligible couples at the moment and names a couple of royals married in 2013
Kleine kans op koninklijke huwelijken in 2014 - HLN.be
Even without knowing dutch, you might be able to spot why i have my doubts about how knowledgable this site is on royals

 

[BritishRoyalist]

My Predictions are:

Zara and Mike will have a Boy

Peter and Autumn announces Third Pregnancy Early-Mid Spring.

William and Catherine announces Second Pregnancy in Mid Summer due Early 2015

Beatrice and Dave Clark Announces Engagement in the Fall.

The Queen while still very active continues to scale back slowly and Prince Charles will take over a lot more work from his Mother.

 

[cdngirl]

I gotta admit I'm a little bit wierded out by some predicting death and illness unto others.

 

[Osipi]

I gotta admit I'm a little bit wierded out by some predicting death and illness unto others.

When you think about it, death is something we work towards all our lives. The only awful part about it is the sadness that losing someone puts on the remaining loved ones. Death is a part of life. I don't think predicting a death or an illness is actually wishing it on someone.

So now.. for my prediction. I predict that all the royals will get one year older in 2014.

only if they survive!

 

[Osipi]

only if they survive!

They will. That's why they'll all turn a year older!

 

[Ish]

I gotta admit I'm a little bit wierded out by some predicting death and illness unto others.

I agree, although those who have illness and death predictions seem to mostly be of the older or already struggling in health department. It's not much of a prediction to assume that someone like the DoE will have health problems in the new year.

What weirds me out is the many predictions of divorce and break ups. The pregnancies and marriage predictions seem to be based on a "I hope this happens," so I'm not sure what to make of the divorce predictions.

 

[Dman]

I try not to get in the habit of predictions. The way this world is going and changing daily, I'm more worried about if I will live to see another day.

 

[princess gertrude]

Holding out hope for an engagement for Princess Beatrice and Dave Clark. No doubt it's on the girl's mind since they've been together for so long.

 

[GracieGiraffe]

In the coming year I predict pregnancies, births, engagements, weddings, illnesses, deaths, divorces, scandals, and the world's first three-legged giraffe.

At least some of these will involve royals.

Seriously, though, I will go out on a limb and predict a separation and/or divorce which will take everyone by surprise. No idea who, just my prediction.
