http://www.theroyalforums.com/forum...ents-september-2002-september-2003-a-491.html Frederik and Mary current events Sept. 2002- Sept. 2003
Ok, I had a ton of free time, so I decided to do some digging. I looked in the first Frederik and Mary Donaldson thread from 2002. BTW, if you look, it's amazing how different TRF's were back then, a little bit more informal, less structure. But anyway, I noticed a ton of similarities between the type of things that Frederik and Mary were doing then, and the extreme talk of engagement, and what Joachim and Marie were doing now. You could basically just switch the names and have about the same articles. They were going to weddings and baptisms, and Mary was accomponying Frederik to different sporting events, etc. That's essentially what Marie is doing a lot of now. And if you look at the pictures, Marie and Mary dressed a lot similarly, less polished. And then, what do you know, a short time later an engagement was announced, then the marriage happened, then Prince Christian happened, then Princess Isabella happened... and I think we'll get a lot of the similar stuff about Joachim and Marie.
