The Duchess of Bragança is the guest on “Generation 60”, a podcast on the television station SIC Notícias.


Makes you wonder what else she did over the last 6 years (since graduation) other than 2 internships of 3 and 7 months.

The Duke and Duchess of Braganza were present at the dinner offered yesterday by the President of the Republic, Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, in honour of the President of the Republic of India, Droupadi Murmu, on the occasion of the State Visit he is making to Portugal. The dinner was held at the Ajuda National Palace.

 
That's interesting. Is he often invited to state banquets (offered to heads of states of non-monarchies)?

Normally the Duke and Duchess of Braganza are only invited to state banquets during state visits by monarchies. But this time they were also invited for some unknown reason. But it's always good to see the Duke and Duchess of Bragança at this type of event.
 
The Duke of Braganza participated in the presentation of the Marquis of Rio Maior Prize for Agriculture in Tomar.


The Duke of Braganza attended the award ceremony for The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award Portugal.

The Duke of Braganza attended the Mass on Saint George's Day at the Church of Santa Cruz, in the Castle of Saint George, promoted by the Constantinian Order of Saint George, of the Duke of Calabria's branch.

 
Dom Duarte Pio as a baby being held by his great-aunt Dona Adelgundes, Duchess of Guimarães.

 
I wonder why neither Dom Miguel or Dom Henrique married.
Perhaps it’s because they were traumatized from when their mother died right in front of them (Dom Duarte Pio was not present but returned home from military school as soon as he found about the death).
The boys also had to witness their father suffer from nervous depression after the death of their mother who had a very happy marriage with their father.

I don't know. Probably because they haven't found the ideal person to marry.
Even Dom Duarte Pio also married relatively late. But he found the ideal woman. And they seem to have a happy marriage.

The Duke of Braganza participated in the Mogadouro Templar event.

Dom Duarte Nuno & Dona Maria Francisca gave their boys the chubbiest royal baby cheeks.

Kind of a weird question to ask but does anyone here have a copy of Família Real by Eduardo Nobre?
Would you be willing to post photos of the Braganzas from 1942-1951 (such as Dom Duarte Pio, his parents, his childhood, etc)?
Thank you in advance.
