The new website of Nicolae and Alina-Maria coming soon:

The website of the products they recommend:
"Over time, Nicolae and Alina of Romania have discovered a series of Romanian products that they consume with confidence and are delighted with their quality. That's why they want to make them known and as visible as possible, giving them recognition.
The satisfaction provided by the product features is worth sharing with as many people as possible who are interested in investing in quality and safety."
 
Nicolae, Alina-Maria and Maria-Alexandra attended yesterday the (re)opening ceremony of the ground floor of the permanent exhibition of the National Museum of the Romanian Peasant.

Nicolae at his Instagram:
"Today I was welcomed by Mons. Giampiero Gloder at the Palace of the Apostolic Nunciature in Bucharest, where I wrote in the book of condolences for Pope Francis. A gesture of respect and solidarity towards His Holiness and towards the entire Catholic Church at this moment.
My thoughts and prayers are with those who are grieving."
 
Nicolae shared photos of when the royal family returned to Romania in April 1992 after 44 years of exile.
"After 44 years of exile, King Michael stepped onto Romanian soil again. I was blessed to accompany him alongside my grandmother, Queen Anne, and my mother, Princess Elena. It was an encounter with destiny, dignity, and a love of country that never fades."

 
At Nicolae and Alina-Maria's "Chosen by NAR", series of products they recommend:
"For Nicolae of Romania, quality is not just about taste — it's also about the story behind it.
That's why I choose Pardon Beer: an authentic craft beer, carefully crafted in a small factory in Lerești, Argeș, where values matter as much as the recipe.
It's not just tasty, it's representative of passion, respect and tradition."

Nicolae posted photos of their visit to the National Museum of the Romanian Peasant:
"I happily participated, together with my wife and daughter, in the reopening of the ground floor of the National Museum of the Romanian Peasant!
On the 35th anniversary of the museum’s return “home”, I invite you to discover the new exhibition “The Christian Law”, a tribute to the faith, the rules and the soul of the Romanian village."
 
Nicolae has been at Via Transilvanica:
"I gladly met again the team that traces the Via Transilvanica in Brașov County. Together with them, I continue to discover my country — an authentic Romania, full of stories, people and places that remain in your soul."


Nicolae continues his work at Via Transilvanica, marking the route
"We just finished 3 days full of challenges, unexpected beauties and a lot of movement — we marked 45 km of the 170 km of the new Via Transilvanica extension, from Hălmeag to Poiana Mărului.
It's just a portion of the route that will connect Viscri to Piața Sfatului in Brașov, but every step counted!
We crossed hills, forests and villages….#TheRoadThatUnifies.
The adventure continues!"
 
Nicolae gave an interview to Point de Vue magazine on the occasion of his 40th birthday.


It was in Transylvania, at Bran Castle, that Nicolae of Romania chose to gather family and friends to celebrate his fortieth birthday. In Point de Vue, the grandson of King Michael I recounts this intimate evening and discusses his plans for the decade ahead.
"I rarely make a big deal about my birthday, much to my wife's dismay. This year, however, I let myself be persuaded. You don't turn 40 every day! (Laughs) Some time ago, while visiting Bran Castle with our children, we thought it was a great place to gather our friends and share a good meal."

Photos of Nicolae's visit to Constanța
Prince Nicolae: “Romanians must appreciate the values of the leaders they elect”
Constanța had the honor of receiving Prince Nicolae on an official visit, full of significance, in the context of events dedicated to Europe Day and Royalty Day. Prince Nicolae gave an interview to the newspaper Replica de Constanța, stating that Romanians must first of all appreciate the values of the leaders they elect, also pointing out that Constanța county has numerous objectives related to the Royal House that need to be put into much greater value and that Romanians must have hope that things will improve and appealed for calm and reason.
His visit to Constanța began at the "Mircea cel Bătrân" College, where he discussed with the young people the values of royalty but also important topics for their future.
“My message for the people of Constanța, for the people of Dobruja, for Romanians in general is to be patient, to have hope, to not rush, to build in community with each other. We must have hope that the future will be better. We must be united. Only in this way can we move forward", concluded Prince Nicolae.

Nicolae at his social media:
"May 10 – A Day of Deep Historical Value
Today, May 10, we remember the key moments that laid the foundations of modern Romania: the arrival of Prince Carol in 1866, the proclamation of Independence in 1877, and the coronation of the first king of Romania in 1881.
For a long time, May 10 was Romania’s National Day – a day dedicated to the dignity, sovereignty, and European path of our country.
In a constantly changing world, it is important not to forget the values that have shaped our identity: responsibility, respect, and the spirit of construction.
Honoring the memory of those who made our future possible."

"MAY 10 - Royal Day tribute to the Bust of Queen Maria located at the Constanța Art Museum. HRH Prince Nicolae and the President of Rotary Cetatea Tomis Aida Ciortan laid wreaths in the presence of members, supporters and the press. The year 2025 marks an important moment - 150 years since the birth of Queen Maria (1875-2025) nicknamed the Soldier Queen in World War I and the Queen of all Romanians after the elimination of the war..."
 
Nicolae at a school visit
"The Caravan History of Royalty in Schools arrived at the home of students from Goșnaziala School No. 1, Micsunsti-Moana village, Nuci commune, Ilfov county.
The students were delighted to learn new things about the history of the Royal House. As always, the dialogue with Nicolae was a real success."

Alina-Maria has also been on Via Transilvanica

Following the example of her husband, who recently returned from the famous "road that unites", namely Via Transilvanica, Alina-Maria de Roumanie made a memorable hike. With a backpack on her back and equipped with the appropriate equipment, she was accompanied on the spectacular route by her friends, Anna Szekely, Kitty Bojan, Roxana Suci and Bianca Comșa, all equally daring and excited to spend a different weekend in nature together.
 
The visit of His Royal Highness Prince Nicolae, invited by the Rotary Club Cetatea Tomis, brought back to the forefront the values of the monarchy and the priceless history of Romania, through a series of events dedicated to the Day of Royalty.
* The opening of the temporary exhibition “The Day of Kingdom reflected in Medals with Royal Inserts (1866-1940)”, hosted by the Constanța Museum of Folk Art, where the collector Georgian Anghel presented to the public rare and valuable pieces from his heritage. The moment was honored by the presence of HRH Prince Nicolae.
* The wreath-laying ceremony at the bust of Queen Maria at the Constanța Art Museum, in the context of the commemoration of the 150th anniversary of her birth.

Official launch: Nicolae & Alina of Romania Wine – 1st Edition
"We gladly invite you on Saturday, May 17, from 14.00, at RoWine Festival – Fratelli Studios, to celebrate together the launch of the first edition of the Nicolae & Alina of Romania wine - 1st Edition.
A wine created with refinement and respect for tradition, which brings the story of passion for quality and nobility to the glass. Access is open to the public, so we look forward to tasting it, in a select atmosphere, alongside wine lovers, sommeliers and people who know how to appreciate authenticity.
Each bottle tells a story. Let's discover it together."

Nicolae and Alina-Maria's friend, godfather at their wedding and godfather of Mihai, Liviu Popescu is one of the three organizers of RoWine Festival.

His Royal Highness Prince Nicolae of Romania, special guest at the Gymnasium School No. 1 Nuci
On May 8, on a day full of historical meaning, the educational community in Nuci experienced a special moment: the visit of His Royal Highness Prince Nicolae to the Gymnasium School No. 1. It was a symbolic day not only for the approach of May 10 – the Day of Royalty and the Day of National Independence – but also for the way in which history descended, specifically in the courtyard of a provincial school, where the students met, for an hour, a living character of the country's past and present.

Via Transilvanica tells about Alina-Maria's hike:
One of the most important steps in building the path that unites is documenting the route for the Hiker's Guide. Ever since 2018, when we initiated the Via Transilvanica project, we formed a dedicated team for this very purpose: to be the first hikers to walk the path and discover it in the most authentic and meaningful way, so that their experience could be captured in the information and stories of our guide.
This team is made up of women of different ages, led by Szekely Anna, the Executive Director of Tasuleasa Social Association and the author of the Hiker’s Guide. Last week, the documentation team resumed their work on the new Terra Borza Teutonica section, which is currently being developed in Brașov County. It spans approximately 180 km.
Anna, Kitty, Bianca, Roxi, and Alina are the women who hiked the new section.

What is their main source of income? They seem quite busy prompting themselves as the future of Romania's monarchy but that doesn't seem to bring in a great stream of revenue.
 
Printed dresses are back in trend, and Alina-Maria of Romania is happy to wear such pieces at public events.
Together with Nicolae, Alina-Maria recently participated in the launch of a relaxation clinic.
Alina-Maria chose a dress from the Maison Cori collection (..)

Nicolae of Romania, following in the footsteps of Queen Elizabeth. Official wine launched

"We thank all those who expressed interest in this initiative, in organizing the event dedicated to the history of royalty, having among us HRH Prince Nicolae of Romania, grandson of His Majesty King Mihai I.
It was an immense joy to connect on such a deep and symbolic level with our historical past. We thank you for your participation, for the emotions shared and for this authentic spiritual enrichment.
We are happy to announce that this initiative will be replicated in other cities in the country and is part of a series of exceptional educational meetings within our group of entrepreneurs"
 
Nicolae at his Instagram
"It is always a joy to talk to people – big or small – about things that define us as a nation. This time, I had the honor of talking to entrepreneurs from all over the country – Oradea, Timișoara, Alba Iulia, Sibiu, Piatra Neamț, Brașov, Bucharest and Târgoviște – about monarchy, values and symbols that unite us.
Royalty and the Crown do not only belong to the past, but are a living part of our future – as landmarks of identity, dignity and continuity."
