It is so facinating to see European royals next to the Japanese royal family! As we saw when the Emperor and Emperess visited Norway. The height difference is so visible! And on these photos in this tread, Phillipe seems like a gigant next to the Japanese people guiding him around! Same with the Spanish "Crown Princely" couple when they visited the Expo.

Pregnancy doesn't seem to bother her one bit...no swollen legs or feet, no bad skin, not nautious...Lucky Mathilde !

I love the way she looked : pretty dress and her hair was so nice, a bit longer and very pretty with the curls
