Is this evidence of a rapprochement between the Spanish Royal House and Luis Alfonso?
A Spanish blog also noting the apparent close relationship between Luis Alfonso and the King's sister.I recall Infanta Pilar was at a tennis match also with Luis Alfonso & his wife back in September.
Luis & his wife were also present at the recent christening of Pilar's newest grandchild,so there could well be a thaw!
It doesn't have anything to do with reigning vs. non-reigning houses or even commoners marrying royals, just the traditions of the houses themselves. In reigning Britain, like in non-reigning Prussia and Greece, any woman marrying a prince takes her husband's name: Marie-Christine von Reibnitz is Princess Michael of Kent; Marie-Chantal Miller is Crown Princess Pavlos; Grand Duchess Elena Vladimirovna of Russia was Princess Nicholas of Greece; Victoria, Princess Royal was the Empress Frederick in widowhood.Interesting how in reigning houses when a commoner marries a prince she doesn't become Princess (insert her name here) she becomes princess (insert husbands name here). But in non reigning houses they give commoners the title of Princess____. Like Princess Marie-Marguerite.
Louis de Bourbon and his wife Maria Margarita very complicit in winter sports
The Duke's childhood was full of painful events, and now he deserves to be happy in his family life. I wish him all the best.What a beautiful family! A very warm and loving photo. Thank you, Kasumi.
