I like the idea of using conflict-free diamonds and sustainable gold. Like I drink fair-trade coffee and buy bio-cotton shirts. The designs by Princess Margarita are nice too but a bit underwhelming. I expected a range of various designs and sizes. Hopefully the Princess will come with more substantial ideas. She stated it would be "a honour" when Queen Máxima would wear her designs. Hmmm... think big girl, then you have a chance la Máxima will notice it.

When the King can spend 800.000 Euro on a little speedboat, he can buy a nice parure made of sustainable gold with conflict-free diamonds for his lovely wife, designed by his highborn cousine...

Well, for me personally it's a big too literal, not much imagination; but i understand P.Laurentien has already worn some of it, so who knows Q.Maxima is next

Margarita's ex-husband is being interviewed in the programme 'Pauw'. He seems to be working on his rehabilitation and appears more sane than in previous interviews. In short his sollicitor wants to prove that Edwin de Roy van Zuydewijn has been broken on purpose by the state, on many levels. He also complains that the press has no interest in the matter anymore, and neither do the politicians.

And the saga continues. Edwin de Roy vZ says that Margarita gave an interview to magazine 'Privé', princess Margarita denies this, she spoke to a writer of the magazine, but did not give an interview and did not want the conversation to be published. During the talk she claims that she was naive in the past. About Edwins threat to publish a book about the RF (for a decade or so) she said that he should either publish one or shut up about it. She also added that she hoped he would focus his energies on more positive things, like she did.

The part that Edwin takes offence with is that the princess claimed that Edwin ended up in a debt programme of the state, to clear his debts. He says he never paid debts and wants to see proof from his ex-wife.

The lawyer of Margarita says that the princess is not obliged to provide any information.

I am happy for Princess Margarita de Bourbon de Parme. All seems to settle well. Her own jewelry design studio seems to flourish, her second marriage is a happy one and her relationship with her aunt Princess Beatrix of the Netherlands is warm and cordial again.

I must say I am not very impressed by the designs. Okay... glittering diamonds set in pure gold but it are all leaves. And oh yes... she has designed a carpet.

Which designer with only one product can get access to the sales departments of Röell Jewellers in Brussels and Steltman Jewellers in The Hague? Only when your name is De Bourbon de Parme...

[Marengo]

I think that Jhr. Roell is also involved with the designs. His shop is in Antwerp btw, not in Brussels.

royalty-online writes about an interview of Pss Margarita with the magazine 'Vrouw'.

The princess thinks she is a sweet but strict parent. She gives her daughters clear boundaries and sticks to them. She also thinks that good manners are very important.

She also says that she thinks her children are the most beautiful gift she has received in life, but she still thinks motherhood is much heavier than she could have imagined beforehand. Paola and Julia are noot very interested in their mothers background yet. It is seldom mentioned and their attention usually quicklyfaades: 'of course I am not a princess with a pink dress and a tiara in my hair'. They did ask their mother however what they had to do to become a princess, to which M. replied that they should marry a prince. But princess Margarita emphasized to her daughters that there are few nice princes and that it is much more important to find somebody who is sweet to them.

The Princess has really settled into the warm womb of the royal family after her stormy marriage with Edwin de Roy van Zuydewijn.
