Interesting , we don't have a lot of pictures of Bevedère Castle inside.
I love Queen Paola wearing a handbag at her home...

All is done now and as they are both vaccinated they will leave Belgium for
a long holiday. They never attend our National Day on July 21th

Couldn't King Philippe keep the yacht? or King Philippe has no interest?

I think King Philippe should buy his wife a new tiara. It would be a much better use of his money than buying a yacht.

Probably both. They are too old and frail to go sailing (even more so on their own) and keeping a boat and a crew is very expensive.
