i found these on PhotoShot today: a couple of really nice pics of Infanta Elena and Jaime

as a couple:

attending Princess Alexia's wedding, 1999. IMO Elena looks great here, even if the hat seems funny.

and attending Achileas Andreas' christening. i like the way she looks here.

Oh, this outfit from Alexia's wedding is awesome! So elegant! And her hat reminds me the one Marie Chantal was wearing during F&L's wedding.

Oh, these photos are just adorable, mtbcm!
Jaime looks such a nice and supportive guy in these early photos!
Thanks for sharing!

I think he is returning little by little.

We've seen him so relaxed this summer that I'm sure the dark times (I found pictures of him leaving the clinic after the stroke and I realise how much the therapy is working for him) are disapearing and after he starts to feel more secure with his image he will relax and be my old Jaime again.

Still, I believe he won't be the athletic type; I found some pictures of him sailing before the stroke and he looked like a person who went in a ride

... but for me that's ok.

I'm glad you like it; Elena was another person too. Great Woman; I admire her so much

!

Regards,
mtbcm

The sports abilities of the family were all left with his brother Alvaro (the one who crossed the Athlantic Ocean in jet-ski)... Oh well, I don't mind (I personally much prefer inteligent men, rather than athletic men, you know)...

She looks so much like QS in the last pic.

princess olga · #**129** 09-09-2006, 07:45 PM

She is one of THE best dressed royal ladies. With a stunning figure to boot! Wish we saw more of her (and Jaime!)

Thanks for the nice pictures, especially the ones from the wedding in 1999 are great, the following ones are also quite nice:

Jaime's little tough guy look in the 4th pic is awesome. I love the way she looks at him in that last pic. Thanks!

Infanta Elena in Greece, at the end of this summer, for Queen Anne Marie's birthday.

She looks sensational.

Me too, I love that pic, thanks a lot, lula. That mantilla makes her dress so special and it's a great and elegant combination. Not to forget their wonderful smiles on that pic

He is a Spanish Aristocrat.

You can access his biography in the below link

http://www.casareal.es/ingles/donjaime/index.html

" Jaime de Marichalar y Saenz de Tejada is the fourth of the six children of the Counts of Ripalda, Amalio de Marichalar y Bruguera, who died in 1979, and Concepcion Saenz de Tejada y Fernandez de Bobadilla. "

Incas · #**140** 09-26-2006, 09:35 PM

I have to say, Jaime looks quite dashing when he smiles. BTW, that gangster look in #130 is so off-putting.
