The blue bows were also worn at Constantine-Alexios' baptism, so I doubt it has to do with any opposition to violence against women. Blue and white are the Greek colours, so I think that's why the ribbons are worn.

The symbol "Against the violence towards the women" is similar and yesterday was the international day of that but I am not sure.

yes, i noticed the little blue ribbon as well...
it would be great if it's a symbol for "against violence on women" but even if it's not, i think it's cute they wore little symbol as a family

Little Anna Maria & Arrieta looks so cute...
children of Pavlos & Marie-Chantal seem to have same cuteness and gorgeous factor like children of Cristina & Inaki...

Princess Alexia looks BEAUTIFUL! I love her hair!!!

Anyway, everyone else looks very nice too. I'm glad it was such a nice and big family event.

Not to be rude, but is it just me, or is Princess Theodora getting a bit chubby? The first pictures of her on this thread are her in regular clothes and she looks like she's been doing the same thing as most American college students - EATING! I don't think I'm too out of place in saying this, since I too am an American college student with poor eating habits. Hopefully it's just a phase for her though - such a pretty young lady.

little Carlos look angelic on the 4th pic...
i see auntie Elena taking care of Miguel also... that's so cute.
yeah, Theodora is gaining weight, but i guess if she wants to, she can easily lose some weight, she looks great on Felipe & Letizia's wedding last year.


is this aunt Marie-Chantal holding little carlos?

Theodora's always been plump. She seems to have put on some weight since going to university, but she's never been svelte. She's a big girl, and she seems to have gotten a little bigger since she left home.

Of course, she comes from a big family, so that plays a part. Both Constantine and Anne-Marie are heavy-set. Pavlos is thin, and Nikolaos was thin (he's putting on weight, now, too), but Alexia, Theodora and Philippos have always appeared a little plump (though Philippos seems to be shedding some of his puppy fat).

There has not come any member of the Royal Danish family? It seems to me to be strange, I am thinking about remembering that to Odysseas's baptism none came either. Does someone remember if they came to other baptisms of the Greeks?

Frederik attended Constantine-Alexios' baptism -- he's a godfather. The Greeks were invited to Nikolai's christening, too. But they've skipped the other recent Greek baptisms, though I know they attended Theodora's and possible Philippos' baptisms in the 80s.

A good point lula. I always thought that Frederik and Nikolaos were close but maybe not. It seems that the Danish and Greek cousins aren't as close as the Greek and Spanish cousins. Although Anne Marie is close to her sisters.

Felipe, Cristina and Elena now have all been chosen as godparents to at least one or several of Pavlos and Alexia's children. Alexia is the godmother to one of Cristina's sons.

But isn't only Frederik a godfather to Pavlos's oldest son? Joachim isn't a godfather to any of Pavlos or Alexia's children, nor are any of Benedikte's three children.

It seems that despite their busy schedule, the Spanish royals, especially Queen Sofia, always makes time for her Greek relations. She even visited Alexia in the hospital all three times when she had her children as well as attended their baptism. Queen Margrethe and Princess Benedikte can't say that they even attended the baptisms.

It seems as if the greeks were closer to the danish royals when Queen Ingrid was still alive.

 

[samitude]

Benedikte's daughter, Princess Alexandra zu-Sayn-Wittgenstein-Berleburg is a godparent to Prince Odysseas-Kimon. Alexia was a god parent to Alexandra's daughter Ingrid and Nikolaos is a godparent to Alexandra's son Richard.
