Ouf . Very last family gathering with Princess Claire missing.
Former is our National Day on July 21st and we know that King Albert II and Paola were not be there.
But now we have a great King , Queen and their 4 Children a happy family.
We should have had it before if Queen Astrid did not pass away.

What's her name? And why was she there? Did Danneels marry her or something?

It his younger sister Countess Isabelle Czarnocki-Lucheschi. Isabelle and her husband married in Brussels so he may have married them.

Thank you!
I was very curious because I found her presence there somewhat strange but now it kinda makes sense

I thought Prince Laurent and Claire were married by the Prince's friend, the French priest Pére Guy Gilbert, an alternative-looking priest with a leather motor jacket, whom worked/works in the edges of society (homeless, juveniles, etc.).
Prince Laurent and Pére Guy Gilbert:

Pére Guy Gilbert during Mass:

The same priest did the baptisms of Laurent and Claire's children.

I see, thanks. Gilbert was the one which stuck in my mind. A remarkable man and typically Laurent to make such an outspoken choice for this great man.
