Alpa IV was bought for 4.600.000 euros
King Albert II wanted to sell it in 2021 for 1.950.000 euros and then 1.700.000 euros .
The buyer is a luxe boat company from Turquie. The price is unknown.
The King wanted the Government to pay its costs but they refused . They paid when he was King!

I'm glad that the government refused to pay it,seems like old Albert II has more money than common sense.

Queen Paola made a fall again.
According to the palace it is nothing serious, she will only have to rest for some days.

According the journalist Wim Dehandschutter:
"Queen Paola, 85, hands over her life’s work to her daughters-in-law: Mathilde succeeds her as honorary chairwoman of Missing Children Europe protection committee. No official succession (yet), but Claire attends the meetings of Paola Foundation."

On March 8 Queen Paola as Honorary Chairwoman of the Queen Elisabeth Music Chapel and King Albert attended the Gala Concert of the Queen Elisabeth Music Chapel.
A fellow member kindly told us about it and shared the following link with some photos - many thanks!
