It's quite rare that a royal person have the right to both styles - in Denmark the princes and princesses of the blood (those born in the royal family) are styled 'til Danmark' = 'to Denmark', while the princes and princesses by marriage are styled 'af Danmark' = 'of Denmark'... This is also a way to see whom in the royal family are heris to the dansih throne...

When Caroline of Hannover calls herself 'de' it's simply because it's the frensh way of sayng 'of'. She is princess OF Hannover...

When exactly are the 2 parties? Probably one is this weekend. I wonder why the two families don't come together for one celebration.

Erik VdV says (on the Benelux Royals MB) the cause of death of little Leopold Emanuel is:

"He was born prematurely and suffered from brain system defience (hope this is the exact word in English)."

I hope he (or someone else) can explain this (maybe in Dutch), because I don't understand it. It's something with his brain, but I don't know what...

Thanks in advance!

"Brain system deficiency" might mean anencephaly [which is not common, but is a leading cause of death in newborns due to brain dysfunction].

That would be my guess anyway. How sad.

Does anyone know the eyes' colour of Maria Anunciata? According to this pic, it seems to be brown or hazel

[BurberryBrit]

Did any pics ever turn up from their Silver wedding anniversary ball?

[HRH Kerry]

I just happen to stumble across the this thread. I didn't think there would be two; Luxemberg and Liechtenstein. Doesn't bother me any, now I know where to look.

What do you mean with 'there are two'? Is there a thread about this family in the Liechtenstein subforum too?

[HRH Kerry]

Hi Marengo. Yes, there are a couple in the Liechtenstein forum. I've always looked there since she married a prince of that country.
