Nice to see so many close family and friends,the former Tsar of Bulgaria and his wife among them,Margarita was a cousin of the late Infanta Pilars husband the Viscount de la Torre.

The Infanta Margarita does not look well.

Members of the RF and public come to pay their respects to Infanta Pilars family.

As well as the extended SRF so far I've spotted Princess Beatriz of Orleans,the Duchess of Montoro,The Prince and Princess of Vidin ,the Duke of Arjona,the Marqués de San Vicente del Barco,Laura Ponte,Prince Pedro Borbon-Dos Sicilias, Prince Jaime Borbon-Dos Sicilias, Princess Cristina Borbon-Dos Sicilias all paying their respects .

Don Fernando after his two divorces was living with his Mother.. I hope he is oing well.
 
It's nice to see a lot of the SRF and Pilar's other relatives and friends paying their respects.
 
King Juan Carlos I looked very sad when leaving the Infanta Pilar residence yesterday.

 
Even their Sorrow is seen in public .Not easy to be a Royal..in those circonstances.
 
I wonder when the memorial Mass at El Escorial will take place?
 
May Thy Gentle sould rest in the bossom of our Lord as even as death is an illusion,immortality is a task for everyone of us,you will be missed as you rest and remain in our memories forever in our hearts,goodbye pilar (Hrh)
 
I don't think we will see too many foreign Royals at the Memorial Mass at El Escorial except for perhaps Princess Irene of Greece,members of the Bulgarian and Bourbon-Dos Sicilias families.
 
:previous: I agree; I expect Pilar's funeral will be more of a private affair, with mostly family and close friends attending.
 
We'll see the Spanish Royal and extended Royal Family ,the Bourbon-Dos Sicilias cousins and I'd expect to see the Spanish nobility out in force too.

Any sign of Adam Karol Czartoryski, Juan Carlos and Pilar's maternal first cousin?
 
Did Infanta Margarita not attend?

I was wondering the same. An article I read stated she and her husband were there, but then shouldn’t she have been next to Cristina, almost directly behind Juan Carlos?

She is on the side, with the children and grandchildren of Infanta Pilar. Infanta Margarita now uses a wheelchair, so sometimes she is placed where is more comfortable, without being so strict with the protocol.

Philomena, Countess of Paris

Princess Beatrix was accompanied by Ottoline Antoinette Gaarlandt - van Voorst van Beesd, one of the Hofdames. It is the white-haired lady on this photo (the other is the Grand-Mastress, the most senior female functionary at the Dutch Court) : https://www.ppe-agency.com/500px/Apr2018/PPE180424117.jpg

The King kissing Princess Beatrix of the Netherlands former Queen and then His Father former King's Bow , two great moments.
Great Orleans attendance ;
 
I also spotted Princess Kalina of Bulgaria and am very glad Princess Beatrix got seated with the Kings sisters near King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofia.

HE Doña Simoneta Gomez Acebo looks utterly bereft.

No pictures of the Duke of Bragança?
 
The Infanta Doña Pilar de Borbón was at the wedding of Princess Beatrix in 1966. The Infanta was also at her Investiture in 1980. The Infanta was also President of the Fédération Équestre Internationale. As keen lover of equestrian events Princess (Queen) Beatrix has often met the Infanta, President of the FEI, in this framework.
