| Grand Ducal Family of Luxembourg attended the annual mass of remembrance at the Cathédrale Notre-Dame de Luxembourg honouring deceased members of the Grand Ducal Family on November 2, 2015 in Luxembourg. Grand Duke Henri and Grand Duchess Maria Teresa were joined by Hereditary Grand Duke Guillaume, Hereditary Grand Duchess Stéphanie, Archduchess Marie-Astrid and Archduke Carl Christian for the mass, which was presided over by Archbishop Jean-Claude Hollerich. |
I did not realize Marie-Astrid was still alive, I think she's about 61 years old now.
ReplyDeleteI recall way back before Prince Charles married Diana that there was hope that he and Astrid would get together; but that never went anywhere, because Astrid is Catholic. (Yes, I'm older than Astrid is.)
DeleteJust last week Astrid was at the airport in my city demonstrating a Belgian invention for air travelers where they sit at a table and get some needed "exercise" by pedaling, which in turn charges their iPhones and laptops. Neat concept to counteract sitting so long on flights. http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/belgian-princess-bike-power-1.3296830

DeleteThe Catholic who never married Charles was MARIE-Astrid the sister of Henri of Luxembourg'
Your link is about Astrid of Belgium.
Marie Astrid toujours très classe !!!
ReplyDeleteGlad to see the young couple mostly interesting of all to meet up with.
ReplyDeleteMaria Teresa looks so stylish despite her waight. I like her coat and almost everything she wears.
ReplyDeleteI agree about Maria Teresa. That belt really defines her waist and she does look great!
ReplyDeleteYes she can wear everything, she did not look matronly. She has "it".
ReplyDeleteMore importantly Maria Teresa seems to be a lovely person, as well as being stylish.
ReplyDeleteI find it interesting that Hereditary Grand Duke Guillaume is getting more and more portly, yet no one has pointed it out. It just shows how the critique of physical attributes is solely relegated towards the royal women, which is a shame as overall we should focus less on (the negative aspects) of their physical attributes and more on their ability and work ethic.
ReplyDeleteForgive me for my unkind observations of Hereditary Grand Duke Guillaume, I thought it was a necessary evil to point out the inequality.
