Victoria has a lovely voice. I was really surprised by Mary's voice. It sounds like she is speaking English with a slight Dutch accent. She hardly sounds Australian at all.

Of all the royals, my favorite voice is that of Queen Elizabeth. Her voice is perfect.

CP Haakon gives an interview in English. I was a little surprise to hear him speak english with more of an American accent than compared to a British accent like some other royals. Good interview!

YouTube - L'association lalla Salma de lutte contre le cancer

This is a video of Princess Lalla Salma speaking (I'd say that it starts about 2 minutes into the video). The video itself is in French, I think, but I'm not sure what language she is speaking. I'm not very familiar with French, but it doesn't really sound like French. Arabic maybe, which I'm also not very familiar with.

Lalla Salma is speaking in Arabic.

Here is a video of Queen Sofia of Spain. You can hear her talk to a group of boys about 30 seconds into the video. The video is in Greek, and, although I don't know Greek, I think that she might be speaking it as well.

How about Lady Gabriella and The Current Duke of Kent

 

[lazuli]

I was so surprised when i first heard P. Caroline speaking. She spoke in french in a low key voice, and she spoke in a slow, paused manner. Later i saw an interview with her an there she spoke in english, very fast, again in a low key, but this time in an harsh, angry voice... What a diference between the two situations! She must be assume a very cold attitude when she's angry with someone...

Any videos of royals speaking English? I'm especially interested in Spanish and Danish royals.

I don't think these videos have been posted, but I found:
Mary speaking in English: YouTube - Mary Donaldson part 2
Alexandra speaking in English when she was a Princess: UNICEF - Tsunami disaster – countries in crisis - Princess Alexandra of Denmark visits UNICEF (look down on the right of this page and you can click for a low or high bandwith video)
Joachim & Alexandra: TV 2 Nyhederne
I've never heard Henrik speak English though - does anyone know if there are any videos of him doing so?

 

[Lady Claire]

Does anyone have any vidoes of Prince Guillaume speaking his native tounge?

 

[Madame Royale]

I noticed but a fortnight back whilst watching an interview with Princess Maxima that HRH spoke with *to my ears anyway* a particularly Dutch/British accent. I confess I heard very little of a latin accent when she spoke and her voice is somewhat different too what I anticipated.

 

[Lady Claire]

Princess Maxima's voice was deeper from what I had imagined it would be. I never thought it would be as deep.

 

[Madame Royale]

I agree, Lady Claire.
