Princess Annunziata of Liechtenstein also attended without her new husbamd.

I had completely missed this gathering of a large part of the family last September. Really nice to see Jean's children and many of his grandchildren and great-grandchildren gather.

Some other notable absentees are Jean's son-in-law Nikolaus and daughter-in-law Diane.

Among the grandchildren:
(by Marie Astrid) Imre and Christoph and their families are missing
(by Henri): no grandchildren but Felix attended without his wife as was already stated
(by Jean): all Jean's children (and family) except for Constantin.
(by Margretha): Marie-Astrid - who was to be married a few days later
(by Guillaume): all Guillaume's sons. Their only daughter Charlotte was present.

Yesterday afternoon, November 12, Grand Duchess Maria Teresa, HGD Stephanie and Princess Amalia attended the 61st edition of the Bazar International:

Is it just me who finds it off that Amalia is there without either parent?

 

[Biri]

But she is with Granny and Auntie.

 

[tommy100]

I suppose what I really meant was - isn't it a bit odd Felix or Claire aren't there. It's no biggie just struck me a little odd. I would kind of get it more if it was jut MT and Amalia.

 

[Biri]

Maybe Felix and Amalia didn't plan to go and Amalia pleaded them to let her go, and parents let her go with Grannie and Auntie.

No Show up for Pope Benedictus XVI Funerals , the Markgrave of Bade Funerals , and this time the Grand Duke came but so often without the Grand Duchess.

 

[tommy100]

There doesn't seem to be a lot of consistency within the Grand Ducal Family/Court. Things never seem quite right these days IMO.

It seems that all the children of the Grand Ducal couple attended and even the Grand Duchess herself turned up, with her usual photographer. Both daughter-in-laws seem to be absent. How far in her pregnancy is the HGD?

 

[maria-olivia]

Tessy and Scarlet are not daughters in law anymore.
No show up since a long time from Princess Claire.
Next to Princess Alexandra is her Brother Prince Sebastien . Her fiancé was not there.
Sad that the Hed Grand Duchess Stephanie does not have the main Order .

 

[Marengo]

I missed the HGD Stéphanie on the photos I viewed so I though she was absent. But now I have found her in the group photo, wearing the aquamarine bandeau. She indeed stands out as she is the only one not wearing the orange sash.

HGD Stephanie is due in April. No date given.

I was wondering where was Princess Claire?

 

[Blog Real]

Too bad Princess Claire wasn't there. She rarely participates in Luxembourg events.
It's good to see Princess Alexandra.
It's good that they are doing the New Year's reception again.

In the group photo Princess Alexandra bears a striking resemblance to Queen Josephine-Charlotte
