Sorry, I was reading to fast... and maybe hope too much

Lets hope Boris is right about the girls PR agent ... because... I mean, Daniel Westling had troubles being accepted as boyfriend to Victoria... so what can I say... (and suddenly I sound like the old hag I am should stand up and say love is a beautiful thing...but I sure dont like this)

I think so to! But could you ever have imagined that a single mother who has taken drugs would ever be a Crownprincess? (Mette-Marit)
And could you ever have imagined that a Divorcée would become Crownprincess in a Catholic Royal House? (Letizia)
So there must be a first for everything...

"Someone close to the prince" tells: Its too early to say they are together.I dont think he is thinking of her as a girlfriend. They are kind of unsecure of their relationship.


(and sorry the google translator doesnt show up on my computer on pages in swedish because I am a swede...and I dont know where to find it...so I hope you can find a translation somewhere...)

[ashelen]

i must say she looks pretty, but who knows too early!anyway about her past, i think today it does not matter, did not have Princess MerrY-Mette a bad past?

[SpeedDial]

LOL! Well isn't she a classy "lady", posing naked with a snake. Definitely princess material.

Yeah it doesnt seem like an actual news. There are noo pictures of them or anything

[Marengo]

Please note that it is against TRF policy to post links to nude or erotic pictures. I know that they are related to the topic of this thread, but still we do not want these pictures to appear here.

On another note, please take into account that the sources for this 'news' are highly questionable. This thread will remain open for the time being, until the moderators reached a decision about the matter. I urge members to stay away from overly speculative posts and I suggest we all take a healthy sceptical approach to the information (as has been the case thus far).

Troonopvolgers!: Nieuwe vriendin voor Carl Philip?

[Empress Merel]

If she was a HF model, it would be acceptable. But this girl is hardly real model material. Pretty, but not model-esque. No one really cares anymore that Carla Bruni, posed naked too, is now married to Sarkozy. Nude pictures can be classy, remind that. But as a future Princess? Not really wanted.

This relationship won't happen or the pictures will be boycotted if Carl-Philip is serious about her.

[SpeedDial]

If this is true, what in the world is Carl Philip thinking? He can do better than a Z-list wannabe star. On one hand, I question if this whole thing is even real since there isn't ONE picture of the two of them together - surely there would be at least ONE. On the other hand though, when the Royal Court was asked about it, they said "no comment", which usually means the don't want to admit something's true.

Honestly, it's getting harder and harder to admire royal families these days because so many of them don't have much class anymore. There have been royals that have married divorcees or people who have already had children with somebody else. Royals that have married former drug users. Then there have been royals who get photographed falling out of clubs drunk or saying stupid things or behaving in general like idiots. Seriously, I sometimes understand why some countries get sick of supporting a monarchy if the people they're supporting aren't conducting themselves in a certain manner.

Prince hooks up with bikini model: reports - The Local

Johan T Lindwall writes, that the Queen and the King knew nothing about Carl Philip´s new love, before Expressen revealed it. Crown Princess Victoria has known for a long time, and she isn´t happy of it at all. Neither she nor Silvia think that Carl Philip has handled his new romance well.
According to Expressen's sources, the King and the Queen thought that Carl Philip and their favourite Emma Pernald would become engaged after Daniel and Victoria. Instead the couple broke up. Since then, both Victoria and Queen Silvia talked several times with Carl Philip of the importance of winning back Emma Pernald.

They're only human beings! they're not perfect and they can make mistakes but it does not mean that they are bad people! We all do some stuff that we're not proud of... I don't expect those people to be perfect in their personal lives as long as they behave good and make a good job in their functions

To be back on Carl Philip's lovelife, I guess he just wants to have fun after a 10 year relationship. It does not mean that he wants to marry that girl! of course I would have loved to see him back with Emma and they got engaged but it seems that both of them have moved on with their lives...It's sad because Emma was prettier and much more elegant than this girl but I'm pretty sure this won't be a serious relationship if they have a relationship...

Considering the many out of wedlock children fathered by royal regents and consort and the supposedly many affairs by a current king and the very public affair by a current second in line to a throne the royals live by different standard then the population in general.

"trashy Z-list wannabe " if you know something about her that has not been published please let us all know. To make such a derogatory comment about someone you must possess valuable insider information.

Maybe I was a bit harsh on her, but guess what? I don't care! Besides, I hardly doubt Carl Philip or this woman care what I think...but if they do, I'd be happy to tell them.

Actually, this definition of her public image is not far off the mark.
If being a swim wear and nude model, participating in a notoriously trashy TV reality show with lots of booze and skin on display, and hanging out at lesser premieres to have her picture taken (see ibl archive) does not qualify for the definition, then what does?
Apart from her charitable work in Ghana, this is what she has been doing with her professional life so far.

I don´t understand why Silvia and Victoria are angry. In some royal houses Princes and Princess have choosen what They want.

Because this "girlfriend" has posed naked for magazine, she's hardly princess material.
Plus they prefer his ex Emma.
When has a Prince married a girl like this?
I agree Haakon married a mother of one, and Felipe married a divorce but nothing as bad as this.
