Willem-Alexander and Máxima: News and Pictures: June - August 2004

[SpiffyBallerina]

So wait- I'm confused! What's going on??? Did the court make one of those announcements that there will be an important announcement in three weeks or what? Where is this three weeks thing coming from? Is she pregnant or no???

and that's the big question that should be clarified by the royal court..

I don't even have any idea if she is pregnant or not.

The "three weeks" comes from rumours. At the Maxima MB, someone stated that they heard from "reliable sources" that a pregnancy rumour by the royal court was "expected" in three weeks. I don't know what this person's sources are or why three weeks.

It's a rumour at present, and its a rumour for a reason -- nothing about it has been confirmed by the royal court, just that someone looked at several pictures of Maxima at different events, perceived that she was looking "bigger" (heaven help the poor woman if she's just gained weight or not quite lost all her baby weight!) and voila! Maxima is pregant.

Does anybody know how many children Maxima and W-A said they wanted?

[royal_sophietje]

It is said W-A only will stay one week at the Olympics. Then he will go on vacation (again?). The reason he stays a week: "The difference with last year is that he now has a family".

Rather strange explanation....

What about Maxima? Maybe they'll vacation in Italy again, this time Porte Ercole.

he's back early to check on Maxima to see how she's doing on extending the family.

You see, WA figures in 20 years time he should have a team together to win the UEFA cup. If "the pro's from Dover" can't do it, then its time for the royals to step up to the mark.

They have already visit granddad Bernhard in Porto Ercole (two days). There are pictures of that, but the most beautiful pictures are not on internet , only in the Dutch gossipmag 'Prive'.

Thanks..so if they've done that I wonder where they'll go..

Via his spokesman W.A. told the press that he would only attend the first week of the Olympics. Then he will be on vacation with his family. When a journalist asks why because in the past he was such a enthousiastic supporter, the spokesman told that the prince now has a family. Kind of weird reaction, don't you think?
W.A. and Maxi will have a late vacation this year, last year they went in july. Now late August. I think that they will go to Argentina, but I don't know for sure. Although I read in the press that Maxima has been followed by a car on the highway in Argentina last time. She really get scared and the security advised her not to go there. But I think that Maxima won't stay away because she simply want to go to their relatives. I also heard rumours that mum and dad will buy a house in Wassenaar next to Maxima to have their own place when they stay in Holland.

Can anybody their me more about Maxima's closest girlfriend Samantha Deane and another brown tinted dark haired lady where she's really close with. The lady also was a bridesmaid and on photo's she's really close with Maxima.

I think it's probably because of the security issues.

Too bad she's reading a book by someone discredited as a liar.

I don't know if we should start that type of discussion in this thread. It may get a bit too heated.

Personally, I think that she should read whatever she likes. It's up to her to make that decision, IMO.

[Bubbette]

Yes, but we should be able discuss whether she is reading ridiculous books or not. On the other hand, she may know already that he has been discredited, and is reading it anyway.
