This is usually the meaning of stars in CoA, always positive and a wish for the family.

Thank you for making it clear! I knew we could count on you!| 
I read and heard that there are so many legends surronding the Hause of Savoy having been involved with the occult; Turin being the magical city "par eccellence", and the Don Bosco thing.

Thanks for the link, giov. I guess a lot of members will be
happy to see her with a darker hair-colour again 
Clotilde is on this week's cover of the French magazine
"Gala", I've seen it at my newsagent, but did not buy it,
so here are the small pics from the magazine's website:
** Gala cover ** 2 pages **
Although Clotilde won't be 40 untill next April , the special birthday
already seems to be a theme as well as her 5th wedding anniversary
on September 25.

Emanuele Filiberto will be visiting the tomb of Padre Pio located in the church of San Giovanni Rotondo (Apulia) on the 10th of September. I wonder if he will be taking any attention on the bas-relief that portraits his cousin Aimone of Savoy-Aosta carrying the insigna of royalty: accorting to a prophecy from Padre Pio, Aimone will be the next King of Italy....

Nothing special that I know of, apart from the fact that he was booed by some far left wing activists.

Diva mag has a long article with pics - I haven't read it yet - and a long interview with Prince Emanuele Filiberto and Princess Clotilde. Is that a response to the rumors about the matrimonial squabbles following EF being caught while hugging a young actress in downtown Rome last summer? Or is that a response to his cousin Aimone's wedding?

Right Tosca! That is a response to Aimone's wedding, IMO!

It depends on the timing. Magazine interviews and photoshoots aren't generally done on the spur of the moment. We need someone to advise us when it became known the wedding date had been set (we only found out on 19/20 September that they were married on the 16th).

Warren, when Filberto was interviewed by D&D, he said that Clotilde had gone to Paris with the girls, so the pictures carried with the article were shot previously. Anyway, it may be just a coincidence.

Clotilde Courau is always present in this kind of events and that's part of her job as an actress.

Yes, but she is also a princess. The latest photos are awful - she looks terrible. Clothilde can look fabulous or she can look like a real "fashion victim"
She and EF are a very unusual couple and seem to have an unusual relationship.
With his shenanigans and her film "career" - I don't see how the two of them can expect any sympathy from their critics.
Contrasting them with Aimone and Olga - there is no contest. Aimone and Olga (so far) seem to be discreet, private and classy.

Apart from his summer friendship with the unknown lady, whatever goes on between these two has been kept private. I agree that they seem to have a long distance marriage but for some it works perfectly well. Perhaps they will last longer than the others who are glued to each other..who can ever tell??

Note to members
The Italian subforum will not be used as a propaganda vehicle to advance the claims of one side of the Savoy family over the other.
The slew of posts made today across various threads pushing such an agenda have been removed.
