Thank you Cory, I thought it might have been a serious reason for the Duke's absence.

White jeans are not a good look when you've just had a baby !
She looks extremely tired

 

[Lumutqueen]

She does look tired, and rather odd in that outfit.

Duchess of Vendome

It woul be quite nice if the Duchess may go sometimes to the hair dresser!

She always looks like the girl around the corner.

Let's say the truth, the girl around the corner has usually a better hair

 

[rominet09]

I think it is sad she has given up colouring her hair. On the first pix we saw of her she was really blonde....

For the first time for a long time, Philomena de Tornos seems correctly hairstyled (she cannot leave her detached hair, they are always flat and destroyed), and correctly dressed (she took the dress she wore on the birthday of Henri IV, just a little old for her age but it’s better than usual) and correctly maintained.
The last time we had seen her in skin-tight hyper pants which unchastely let see her curvatures and her fallen breast.

She also has better appearance. It's a pity (for me but good new for her) because I thought that she waited for a second child.

It is nice to see Duke and Duchess of Vendome undertaking somewhat official engagements.
I have to say that Duchess of Vedome's fashion choices tend to be sloppy.

[rominet09]

Their problems seem to be resolved... good for them

 

[Al_bina]

That is an interesting development. It is nice to see Comte de Paris and his son calling a truce. Princess Michaela and Princess Philomena looked unpolished as usual.

 

[JulieS]

Nice to see them together.

 

[Katrianna]

Thanks iceflower! What a nice picture of father and son and their wives. Off topic: How is the Duke's mother, the last I knew she was in poor health?

I espcially like those that show Gaston's curiosity and joy of discovery

He has quite grown !

 

[principessa]

He became very sweet!

 

[Katrianna]

Oh thank you iceflower! Gaston is just a sweet little boy and it's so evident that his parents are besotted with him.

 

[Al_bina]

Thanks for the photos!
It has been nice to see Prince Jean and Princess Philomena performing an official engagement. Prince Gaston is growing fast.

Nice to see Gaston rubbing noses with Henri IV !

And it's great to see father, son and grandson together - I didn't think it could/would happen.....
