Nice goodbye present by Brazil!

It doesn't really make sense to award her which a grand cross 3 years after her trip, so it is a clear sign of support for the princess.

How lovely. While it is tragic for the couple that they had too wait so long, it is somewhat nice that her 30th birthday can be celebrated and used to look back upon her 30 years as imperial princess (of which 10 years as a 'working' member). Wishing her many happy years in her new life!

I assume her sister was her closest ally within the family... so rather fitting that both sisters are featured in her final birthday video.
