Why is that so obvious? Does the duke have health problems?

A new book has just been published about the Duke of Aosta, which summarises his life.
Prince Amedeo, Duke of Aosta was born in 1943 as the only son of Prince Aimone, Duke of Aosta and Princess Irene of Greece. In 1964, he married Princess Claude of France in Sintra, Portugal. The couple have three children, Princess Bianca, the Duke of Apulia and Princess Mafalda. However, in 1987, the Duke of Aosta remarried, this time to Silvia, Marchesa di Paterno Spedalotto.
The book includes a number of photographs, anecdotes, unpublished documents and letters about the family. It sounds like an interesting read:

Yes I know, that was just a simple mistake. I will amend my post to avoid confusion.

If you mean in the last year or so, apparently yes, according to your own previous posts:

There has been no statement from Amedeo regarding the bill on civil unions.
A wise move on his part, given his checkered marital past.

Shame that Princess Isabella is not on the picture. I love her 
But it's really nice that Princess Silvia is also included.

What a great picture and all of them blue blood, a rare sight in today's royalty. I missed Princess Olga?

Crown Prince Aimone and his daughter, Princess Isabella, were not in the photo.
It is wonderful to see Prince Amedeo surrounded by his grandchildren.

That's a lovely photo, thank you for sharing Marengo. 
However, I a do agree that it's a bit strange little Isabella wasn't included.

Amedeo and Claude were such in love and had a wonderful wedding.
This wedding lasted only 7 years ; I never understood why ?
