Oh my god, how could i forget them!!!! *hangs head in shame*, but aside from C & C and now B & L, who else, just intrigues me so much, its a rare enough occurrence in "normal" life

Hate the dress but she always looked the part, big hair, big dress, big trains. But i agree they never looked like a couple, you'd never have put the pair of them together in a million years.

Okay apart from Charles and Camilla who married in their fifties (albeit with a lengthy romantic story behind them) are their any other royal couples who've married late in life, can't think of any. I know when Queen Louise of Sweden died in 1965, King Gustav considered marrying again (i read...

Over the last few months the media has been full of speculation that QEII is cutting back her duties such as the Commonwealth H of Gov meeting and delegating to PoW, potentially setting in motion a "co-monarch", whilst I can't see that happening it did get me thinking - QEII is now 87 and at an...

Hope she gets better soon :) still working hard at 76!

Does anyone know if W A plans on handing out orders to royal guests going to his inauguration, would love to see Camilla in an Orange sash! I know in 1948 Juliana awarded Princess margaret the order of the netherlands lion when she attended her inauguration, what does anyone reckon?

I'm so pleased they're going :) no offence but I get sick of seeing the Wessexes at all the big royal events, its about time C & C went to a mjor royal function! Hopefully we may get some tiara wearing and dutch orders heading Camilla's way!

Great that Camilla gets some recognition for the good work she's been doing, its about time too!

With the diamond jubilee here do we think that the Queen will give some new orders out to the royal females to wear at the major events that'll happen. Perhaps Catherine will get the family order (big question mark there though) and maybe Camilla may get something (Sophie got the order of st...

Apparently Prince Harry has now moved to Kensington Palace, the daily mail say he is moving to a one bedroom flat close to william at nottingham cottage, I thought that apartment 4B that michael peat recently left was supposed to be for him? Seems like kensington palace is recieving a new...

Camilla does look great, is that the same necklace that the Countess of Wessex wore to the Swedish royal wedding? Very sad that its a no tiara affair, the distinct lack of bling has been the only negative on this trip!

Looks like the necklace Camilla is wearing tonight is either the modern diamond tiara she wore in Spain (she's also wearing the same Bruce oldfield dress she wore then) but i'm not sure if its the necklace that Sophie Wessex wore to the Swedish royal wedding, can't tell from a distance :S

I really hope so too! I'm not sure about the dinner etiquette in Denmark with the black tie = tiara question, do you reckon we may see some orders and sashes tonight?

Artemisia thats an amazing list, looking further into it Princess Margaret collected several during her life as well, the Order of the Netherlands Lion when she attended Queen Juliana's enthronement the Queen Mum also held several but not as many as Royals today. Giving and recieving Orders...

Got to say Mary and Camilla are looking fantastic, two great showing from them. Hope tonight the dinner is a tiara event but something tells me no, probably because I hoped for the same in Norway and was proved wrong but fingers crossed ;)

I read somewhere that the King is attending a engagement with some scientific organisation that has been arranged for sometime, hence his absence at the welcoming, he'll be joining them later today though and your right i don't think its usual for the Queen to welcome guests like the P of W alone.

Looks like its shaping up to be as fun and relaxed as norway was :) Are there any videos of them yet? Haakon and Mette marit gave them such a warm welcome in oslo, would love to see better how they go along with prince carl philip in stockholm?

I know I'm bitterly disappointed with the lack of sparkle tonight in Oslo :( on the plus side Camilla looked pretty great and some great turquoise jewellry that i don't think we've seen before. Pity it seemed like a toned down evening and i had such high hopes for Norway on this trip, we already...

I thought i'd read somewhere that fergie recieved that order but i wasn't sure. The british royals do seem somewhat isolated from other royal families but Edward seems a have amassed a nice collection. Thanks for clearing this up guys :) much appreciated.

Thats true I guess but camilla is legally the princess of wales and the next Queen of England and is equal is status to any other CP in europe. Even when Alexandra of denmark was still a royal she recieved orders and she was on the same level as sophie. Just makes little sense to me especially...

I think its pretty bad that Di was a full time working royal (and a senior one at that) for 15 years and managed to rack up only 2 orders (Order of the Crown from Beatrix and another) whilst Mette Marit and Mary hold several at least despite being royal for only half that time. Why do the...

Looking at the Queen's "genorosity" with her orders, looks the case, it seems a real shame that Camilla, Sophie etc. aren't recognised in the same way Mette-Marit and Mary are (both of them hold severl foreign orders apiece), hopefully this will change in the next couple of years.

It doesn't seem likely at all, when CP Margarita got married she borrowed the Essex tiara from Garrards in London, clearly the Romanians have very little jewellery left for them if CP Margarita had to borrow a tiara (albeit a stunning one) for her own wedding.

Apparently there will be a state dinner at the Royal Palace for the P of W and Camilla, will this be a full formal occasion do we think? Hoping camilla will get the order of st olav for the occasion. The "state dinner" makes me think this will be a tiara wearing, white tie affair.

I think these days Camilla has been accepted by the public and usually gets favorable coverage, although the D of Cambridge eclipses her now I think Camilla has done really well since she's been married and acted fantastically. She'll never hold the spotlight that Diana did but I think most...
