I thought they met in a museum, but it seems the king has a large collection of paintings!

Prince Kyrill and Princess Kalina and their children seem to have been absent, as is the case for Pss María Garcia, wife of Prince Konstantin-Assen. The two eldest sons of Prince Kubrat are both doctors IIRC. A lovely photo of the -sympathetic- Pss Carla and her mother-in-law.

:previous: For a short period of time.

I've read the interview, he's a very active young man, with lot's of interests and plans.

Here's the part about the monks:

"In the future, I want to be a Green Beret in the Special Operations Command (..) And I'm very excited to train in Spain, a country I love everything about and where, in addition to family, I also have good friends, although it won't be now. The plan is to start in 2027"

Asked what he will do in 2026, he replied:

"There are two plans on the table, which seem extraordinary to me, and I want to do both. I've decided I'll join my father's expedition (..) But, before joining my parents, I'll go to Henan Province, China, to continue practicing kung fu with the best, following a Spartan discipline and philosophy of life. (..) I've been accepted by the Shaolin monks and will live with them in the temple".


 
What kind of expedition by his father is he talking about?
 
I've been reading the interview too. I didn't know that Princess Irene of Greece is Simeon's godmother.
 
What kind of expedition by his father is he talking about?
Kitín Muñoz will take part in the fifth expedition with the Explorers Club of New York and Princess Kalina already agreed to join in. I couldn't find the exact destination being mentioned, but Simeón called it a "transoceanic voyage as a family. The two of us making our dream come true, on a reed raft with indigenous crew members".

From that magazine cover picture, I'm glad to see princess Kalina is having a less severe look this time. I understand her condition was a response to an accident but her aged Cindy Lauper + Terminator looks were a choice.

Re her son, glad to see him so motivated to the life in the army and his stay with the shaolin monks, it requires to have a lot of discipline to endure such rigorous lifestyle, even if temporary.
