Prince Constantijn and Princess Laurentien, News & Events 1 (Jan 2003 - March 2006)

[Maxie]

Where do you reed that in what forum when I may ask??

It was also stated by a gossip magazine I saw in a grocery store last week, over here in Holland. Don't remember which one it was... all rumours I guess.

 

[Marengo]

I think it was 'story'. Rumours maybe, but it would be nice if they got another child, they seem such wonderful parents! What is Laurentiens age now? 39?

 

[liv]

You should not forget that she already had two children and that she is not the youngest woman.so it is just natural that she has a little belly.Yes she´s 39 becoming 40 next May.

 

[Maxie]

It was the Story indeed. This one was originally posted by Princess Maxima in the 'Who is rumoured to be pregnant' thread.

It says: Does Laurentien's belly tell her story?
Think Liv's right though when she says that a belly is very normal for a woman in her late thirties who already had two children.

 

[SpiffyBallerina]

How awful it must be if she really isn't pregnant! She's a very thin woman and just because she might have a couple spare pounds in a particular area doesn't mean she's pregnant. I feel so sorry if she's not because it must be difficult to have all this speculation about it for such a superficial reason.

Sorry to be completely off topic but what is the story at the top of the magazine about Camilla and Charles becoming grandparents?

Also back on topic unfortunately for Laurentien and Sophie Wessex if you are not thin with a flat stomach (not easy for women who have had children and aren't at the gym 4 hours a day with personal trainers) there will always be speculation because everyone loves a new baby.

 

[Marengo]

Happy 36th birthday Prince Constantijn!!!

 

[Lucidu]

Happy birthday to Constantijn!!!!

I agree. sometimes you want to wring these tabloids' necks! that is so rude. it is such a sacrifice for anyone, especially women, to live a royal life.

I got these pictures from the Glittering royal events MB, posted by Ademar and from Gettyimages. It is the launching of an EU campaign against breast cancer in Brussels

Could anybody identify this princess? Gettyimages apparently needs some help But Laurentien looks great, though it must have ben quite windy. The combination red/pink is quite popular these days among dutch royals!

 

[Maxie]

Thanks for the pictures, Marengo! In my opinion she looks great. But maybe that's because red and pink is not only popular amongst Dutch royals, but also amongst my own wardrobe. They are by far my favourite colours.

I like the black! I don't think she's got much preggo belly to hide just yet. I think it looks very nice on her and it fits her well. Such a lovely lady - I wish she'd wear better clothes more often!
