Princess Astrid, Archduke Lorenz and Family Picture Thread, Part 1


If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
Waw! Great thanks! I didn't knew Otto was his godfather. Wondering why he's not Beatrices godfather. Probably because Lorenz was the "hereditary archeduke" then...
Thank you very much for the picture!!! :)
 
Does Astrid have a scar on her cheek?
 
Yes , At the beginning of her Wedding she lived in Bale ans she had an accident
 
Hard to believe in a little over 3 years the couple will be married 40 years!
 
Until 1993 Atrid and Lorenz had a family life in Switserland . Prince Lorenz was not Prince of Belgium at that time.
Astrid did not have a car Accident but a car Jacking. She brought flowers to the people who found it back.

So what accident did she have?
 
However she got it, it seems like it is still there. She's pretty fortunate it just makes her look interesting rather than being a serious disfigurement. It can never be much fun to have your face scarred. It also raises the thought that given the position she's in, this is probably the best that surgeons have been able to do (unless Astrid is very unselfconscious and never attempted to get it fixed).
 
:previous:

The princess said that she found her revalidation mentally challenging as due to the broken spine she had little to occupy herself with.

The photographer is from Liège, which might explain the speeding ticket of the princess.

The photographer has also been used by the wife of the previous American president.

I read the Paris Match in my hairdresser shop.
the pictures are made by Brigitte Michaux who worked for Donald Trump. Photoshopped Pictures and bla bla saying she wants to remain in the shadow!! and hope going to economic Travels with Sophie Wilmes our Minister of Foreign Affairs.
 
It's a bit contradictory to want to be in the shadows yet grace the covet of a major magazine.

Any other insights from the interview? Thank you

That's the latest fashion when it comes to the concept of privacy: it's more the control of one's own presence in the media rather than being in the shadow.

As stated in the article, the comment about being in the shadows was not said by the princess, but by another person who believes HRH prefers to remain in the shadows but deserves the spotlight. A nice and well-deserved compliment to her.

If what the article says about the pandemic being psychologically challenging on the princess because of her determination to work and be of service is true, that would not surprise me.
 
A few old pictures of Astrid and Lorenz with their fistborn, Amedeo, from a Flemish magazine
https://gisterennogvandaag.com/2021...ostenrijk-este-en-hun-zoon-amedeo-van-belgie/
The pictures were taken in November 1986 at the Belvédère, during a visit to Brussels of the young family, who then lived in Basel
And, some months earlier, in February 1986, one of the very first pictures of little Amedeo, with his parents, maternal grandparents, Prince Albert and Princess Paola, and his paternal grandfather, Archduke Robert
