I think Queen Anne-Marie looks really nice, as do most of the other ladies.:flowers: Queen Sofia is wearing one of my least favourite dresses that she owns!

sOfia, you took the words right outta my mouth... I don't like Sofia's dress either... and now she's worn it twice! Let's hope it's the last. ;) :)

I like this pic a lot... they even match each other. Constantine looks like maybe he's lost some weight.
 
It's very cool (and rare) to see three royal families represented who are all related. It's too bad Benedikt and Queen Margarethe's children couldn't be there, and Felipe/Letizia. Then it could've been a "family reunion".
I wonder if the kids were wearing clothes from Marie-Chantal's clothing line as all the cousins were dressed the same. I like the white stripey tops.

So Nikolaos is still with Tatiana (is everyone in Europe named Tatiana?)
Why doesn't he just marry her... or find someone else. They've been together... what... 3, 4 years now? He's pushing 40!

That's a neat looking boat btw... it's different. I guess it's an authentic Greek boat eh?
Well, everyone looked very happy! :)
 
Constantine and Anna Maria gave an interview to a greek magazine saying that they will return to Greece permenently,that he respects the decision the Greeks made with the referendum that he feels sadness and not bitterness for the goverment took his home in Tatoi and that he hopes the greek goverment will make the proper repairs so the estate will be visited by people and not exploited by entrepreneurs.

I certainly hope so too!

Daytona, would it be possible to give details of other parts of the interview?
Sofía ;)
 
Too bad the Greek govt. wouldn't just let Constantine and Anne Marie live at their old home. They wouldn't be king or queen, of course, but it probably has sentimental value to them and their family. I think it would be a nice gesture on the Greek govt.'s part to allow them to do that.
 
It makes me sad to see the pictures of Tatoi. It is falling down and the government need to do something with it quickly before it becomes a complete waste!
 
Was Pavlos and MC daoughter Olympia? there? I dont see her in any of the pictures.

Thanks for providing the link Beltraneja. Is this the first time Constantine and Anne-Marie have been in a Greek magazine (especially the cover)? The pictures are really nice. Anne-Marie does not look 60...she looks amazing!
Can someone please translate it for us non-Greekers? :huh: Thanks in advance.

Yes, Olympia was also there. On one of the photos in the German magazine "Frau aktuell" she sits far on the right side so in spanish magazines she was "cut off".

You are all most welcome :flowers:
and I also like the pic you've posted, purple. It's so nice to see all of the grandchildren together on one pic and to compare the little differences between Alexia's and Paul's kids.
 
Wow! Princess Alexia's children are so cute! Little Carlos looks so cute sitting there on his grandmother's lap. Thanks for the pictures.
 
How you can be mistaken....

I was sure, little Carlos resembles Arrietta and becomes even more pretty. But now as he is visible clearly (I think for the first time since he was born) I must admit that he´s the spitting image of Ana-Maria. The same round face, the same eye colour. Only the way he looks is a bit different. Ana-Maria´s eyes look sometimes as if she wouldn´t have eyelashes on her lower eyelids. Still I´m not sure, whether little Carlos´ hair yet will become darker or whether he will become as blond as Ana-Maria.
 
Have there been any other pictures released (other than the ones already posted)....?

The Spanish magazine HOLA did have some more pics, including some of Anne- Marie and Constantine alone, but I did not buy it, maybe some one else did and can post them for us :)
 
Have king Constantin and Queen Anne-Marie returned to Greece permanently? Have they found a proper house in Greece? what about other family menbers? How is Alexia? Her children all look sweet. I hope she is in good health.
 
I'm confused. I thought they already bought a big house on one of the Greek islands (Patmos or somthing?). Or maybe that's just a vacation property?
Anyway, this house they're renting looks like it has a beautiful view of the water.
 
Thank you for an information. Constantin and Anne- Marie had an interview with a reporter before Anne-Marie's 60th birthday in Greece. As far as I saw the interview, they seem to have moved to Greece. Does anyone know if they went back to Greece forever?
 
about moving in Greece

They are still looking for a house in Greece but they haven't bought anything yet. When they will find one they will sell their house in Hampstead.
 
Thank you for giving an answer to my question. Constantine and Anne-Marie have looked for a house for three or four years. They have already seen enough houses, but still they can't. I guess it is pretty hard for them to find one that they want in Greece. By when they search for the one,I wonder? I am surprised at their endurance.
