pictures from the remembrance mass

During the mass, texts were read by Joséphine-Charlotte's daughters (marie-Astrid and Margaretha), by prince Philippe and princess Astrid.

Princess Astrid thanked her aunt and godmother for "the intense moments they had lived together during Joséphine-Charlotte's long and difficult illness".
She spoke with a lot of admiration about the courage and the sense of humour of her aunt.

Thanks for the photos. The royal ladies all look elegant, I especially like Princess Astrid's coat. The Duke of Brabant is also quite handsome in his pin-striped suit.:)

Thanks Lyonnaise for the photos. I like Astrid's coat as well. Mathilde looks lovely and Paola's top looks very nice. Prince Philippe's pin-striped suit really looks stylish. I haven't seen him wear one too often, but I think he should wear it more frequently.
