Interesting that they have an Aide-de-Camp in their slipstream. Is that a militair which has beeen detached to their service by the Romanian armed forces? Or is it just a hired person with an operetta uniform? Too bad that the aide-de-camp wore his day-uniform for an evening event. He should have swapped for an evening tenue too.
 
Crown princess Margarita visited on Wednesday, on the International Day for Older Persons, the retirement home Vasarely in Ploiesti.

I must say, it is all done in great style. Princess Margarita is really treated with all égards and courtoisie. It is almost like Romania is a monarchy... Who are the gentlemen with the "uniforms of office" (the black costumes with golden embroidery). These are usually ceremonial uniforms worn by ministers or ambassadors?
 
What a beautiful chapel. I wonder who the military aides are whom accompany Princess Margarita on all her trips. I have seen three different military uniforms, I suppose these are aides-de-camp from the Romanian armed forces detached at the service of Princess Margarita? Does that mean that the Government of Romania has a sort of 'recognition' and deploys some of its staff? Or is are these military who do it in their free time? It is hard for me to understand how a republican state can detach military at the service of a private family without a constitutional role?

To compare with my country: I can not imagine that the Palace de l'Élysée would order the French armed forces to deploy aides-de-camp at the service of Monseigneur le Comté de Paris or Monseigneur le Duc de Vendôme...

A few decades ago who would have thought that the Romanian family would be welcomed back and permitted to carry out such roles in the country. I don't believe that King Michael could have imagined his eldest daughter presiding over ceremonies such as this one. She is very poised and elegant.
 
Prince Radu visited Alexandria on Wednesday and attended on events commemorating the centennary of king Carol's death.

On Thursday Prince Radu of Romania was in Timișoara on the occasion of the third edition of the International Conference "Conceptualization of modernity in the cultures of central and South-Eastern Europe: getting started, speeches, languages".
Prince Radu gave a lecture in the framework of the round table "the role of the monarchy in the modernization of Romania", held at the art museum Timișoara.

Keeping in mind that the monarchy in the Netherlands costs the taxpayers some 40 million Euro per year (not included: the costs of the royal residences, the costs of security, the costs of military deployment) then Princess Margarita, her spouse and Nicholas are doing a great job for "free"....

Dacia (a daughter of Renault Automobiles) turned out to welcome a commoner without any formal position... And all this in the country of Nicolae and Elena Ceaucescu...

It is amazing.

CP Margarita is such an elegant figure in her gown. I love that one of the recipients chose to wear folkdress.

Are the CP and Prince Radu living in Romania on a full time basis?

Despite not being a reigning royal house,the Romanian Royal Family appear to be one of the busiest ,I wonder does such events attract much media attention in Romania?

Well, the Romanian TVR+ has a weekly TV-programme "Ora Regelui" about the royal family. The last programme was about king Michael due to his birthday.
You can watch the programs here

Also about prince Nicolae's visits around Romania have been written at the media, and I would guess that also about crown princess Margarita and prince Radu. I haven't been searching the articles about them.
 
Prince Radu attended on Monday at the Romanian Athenaeum at the launch of the book "Royal Etiquette" signed by Sandra Gătejeanu Gheorghe, the protocol director of the Romanian Royal House.
The book is richly illustrated with images of vintage and recent photographs of members of the Royal Family and has details related to royal protocol, the book presents in a concise and structured label that accompanied and further accompanying events conducted under the auspices of the Royal House.
