Aw always a great site to get Lux (and Liechtenstein) royal news. Will miss them for sure! Had a lot of respect for them not reporting Tessy's antics once she stopped being a formal member of the family.

I am sorry that the site Luxarazzi will no longer be updated. It is a very interesting site. I hope this break will be for a short time.

I wish Luxarazzi a good break; but I do hope this means their excellent blog will be back again at some point and not gone forever!

I think there is a new air of tension in all the forums. The newer members often seeing no reason to follow the rules. The negative attacks across the differing forums. I think the moderating is just about a full time job which when it's your 'baby' can turn it into a soul destroying job. I will miss it.

It does seem weird she didn't attend the 75th liberation anniversaries... Maybe the Cour is still tense following the government getting involved in staffing? Grand Duchess Maria Teresa was reportedly problematic so it could be a good idea to let special representative Jeannot Waringo start his review/make initial changes without her being around at first.
Only Grand Duke Henri has events next week according to the agenda which could be inaccurate...
I admit I'm suspicious of the Grand Ducal couple's 3-day attendance at the Angoulême film festival which was immediately after news of the staffing problem/PM's special representative. How convenient. 3 days! In 2017, the HGD couple only attended 2 days at the Cannes Film Festival to support Luxembourg's film industry.

There was nothing weird about the 3 days at the film festival as this was planned and announced months in advance and had nothing to do with the smear campaign the government launched in order to divert attention from the government problems. I just say: Tram (far more problems and more expensive than expected), the new stadium (costs exploded), secret databases about people that where used by the government when people applied for jobs...

I understand that the Grand Duchess will not accompany her husband to Japan for the new Emperor's enthronement ceremonies. Probably due to her known fear of flying.
It still saddens me that Henri will attend alone

We all know that she fears for flying , but they are Court cars to go from Paris to Luxembourg.

Can Princess Alexandra accompany Grand Duke Henri to the enthronement of the Emperor of Japan?
