i think also because of MT's weight it does give her a kind of short stumpy look...Jada Pinkett Smith doesn't look so short even thought they're about the same height because she is so slim =]

And there is a picture of the birthday of grand duke Henri I haven't seen before.:) By the way, this is my 100th post !!
Congrats for that (my friend would cite though, that you desperately need a life. As do I...)! If you can scan the pics, I would for one be grateful. I just love the guy

I agree!!!:) . The only reason why I choose Jada was because I saw her and her husband Will Smith hosting the BET Awards.

I am not sure about Henri, what his height is? Oh, someone said his height was 5'9" or 5'10" . I know Will Smith height is 6'2". Now his height is totally taller than Henri height. Based on the photos I see with MT and Henri, she comes to his shoulders somewhat sometimes. When you see Jada and Will together she comes below his shoulders.

Most of all, both couples look great together and they are happy .

Hmm...I'm not sure how tall Henri is either. (Anyone know the height of anyone in the Grand Ducal family?)

I've heard that Felix is 6 feet, or 2 meters-but I don't know any of their heights for sure.

Just wondering in terms of education, do the children go to normal public schools or boarding school?

Hello folks,
I just leafed through the latest Hola! magazine in the local library, and it has a three-page special about the family. There were some not-published-before pics, and if the mag ever makes it to the newsstand, I'll try to buy it and scan them at some time. Is it just me (and my ordinary upbringing) or does prince Louis resting his of age-old head against his father's shoulder look just a weeny bit pretentious...?

-L

(ps. +30 degrees Celcius in the shadow and that in Finland. Ah summer.)

I just bought Hola and these pics are great:p . By the way, there is a picture of the family in the new Point de vue. I don't think there will be pictures of the national day in the magazines.:(

judging from the sounds of it, it does sound somewhat pretentios...what 19 year old guy still leans his head on his father's shoulder's for pictures lol? but maybe it really isn't what we think...:)

I don't know where to post it.
The wedding of princess Alix de Ligne, grand-daughter of princess Alix de Luxembourg, and count Baudouin Gillès de Pelichy took place today in the castle of Beloeil, in Belgium.

Danielane,

are there any pictures of the wedding?. Did any of the luxembourg royals attend?.
It would be so nice if someone would post the pictures out of the Hola magazine.

I don't know. A friend of mine was here and told me the news. But if you want, I will ask her for details.
