but as you read teh read post, you will see that JJKG is not complaining about what anyone feels or doesnt feel about letizia. just the constant mis-information and mis-interpretation of 'facts' that is used to justify themselves. when the funny thing is, our feelings in this matter doesn't...

Maybe he was trying to quash rumours that he hates his son by dining with all his kids? One rumour at a time maybe his plan, he does have an enormous lot of them to address...

i think i agree regarding the interest and focus of the press and how it differs from the people of royalty boards. the international nature of maxima and mm is great but letizia will one day be queen of spain. that has its own pull and it is my opinion that she is being groomed to be what...

yes i think we should leave it at this because i disagree with ur assessments and you with mine.:smile: the simple adoring looks have never caused this much comment/consternation for phillippe/mathilde who are just as affectionate, if not more so imo, it doesnt bear comment. especially since it...

she does. but im wondering if she has lost a bet and must now only wear grey in the daytime?

i actually dont believe that at all. this whole felipe is slow and letizia is showing him up is a trope that shows up in the rags most monarchical countries. the 'let me interrupt' thing is only even brought up by people who don't like her. till date, i havent heard a reasonable argument as to...

exactly my point! of course we all read what we want into the pictures we get so i can't really say anyone is wrong as such. i just dislike the idea that a strong woman is somehow bad. the whole 'well he's miserable cuz she wears the pants' business only works if we were in the 50s :smile:

glad that so many agree with me. whatever letizia's personality may be, it is quite clear from the numerous photos of the couple looking warm and close to each other (and also the numerous complaints from many of the same posters about it) that felipe rather likes it!

how is her title getting to her head in those photos? besides, i find it horribly offensive that a woman who has a strong personality is derided and said to be 'wearing the pants'. the husband doesn't look unhappy about it. maybe he is strong enough to admire and want a strong woman?

thanks donna, this is what i meant. when everyone is talking about how disrespectful and unprofessional she is, i wondered if that was also the impression of her countrymen. i dont think it is. not too many people have complained about that because i think you'd hear about it here first if that...

i actually dont think the press has been 'all over that'. i am wondering if anyone in spain actually writes about her fashion the way we do.

well not too many (if any) have commented on her looking unhappy in the spanish media. there are pics of her smiling and greeting the ppl there to see her as i have previously said. so, i dont think this 'discussion' will get anywhere as we clearly saw two different sets of pics

she didnt attend the concert instead of participating in a state visit cuz a) it wasnt a state visit and b) she went after the engagement. in her time. which she is perfectly entitled to do. besides, i was kidding cuz of all the nitpicking that goes on.

well lets wait till we get some pics of her at the concert and u can comment on how she looks terrible and not doing her job well there too...:whistling: :flowers:

well she could have just been cold. i dont think it matters if u have a nanny, u can still get cold :tongue: and i wouldnt so readily dismiss a person's lifestyle because it is dissimilar to yours. all that travelling is stressful. it doesnt matter even if u do it on a private plane/helicopter...
