A nice tribute to the late Grand duke Jean!

When looking at the pictures and the guest lists, there is a large showing up of royalty (both from reigning houses as former reigning) and nobility. Off course many of them are related in one way or another.

The following are prince Carlos of Bourbon-Parma, Duke of Parma and his wife Annemarie:



Present as Jean was also a prince of Bourbon-Parma, through his father prince Félix of Bourbon-Parma. The father of Carlos, deceased prince Carlos-Hugo, was a 1st cousin of Jean.

I've had a look at some of her photos and she looks like a different person. I guess she is the taller one on the left.

The Lux government plans to errect a monument to honour GD Jean. They haven't decided on the place yet, so it will be interesting to see what they plan and where it will end up.

Today was the 6 week mass for GD Jean. Not many pics yet but it looked as if a lot of family members missed the event  Thumb down  Nono. It is a long weekend, so no excuse at all for the ones who did not attend. I did see Henri, MT, MA, Margaretha, her husband, Jean and a few of the grandchildren but none of Henri's children. His brother Jean looked horrible, he seems to have aged a lot during the last months. The mass was open to the general public, so everybody could attend.

RTL only mentioned Henri, MT, MA, MArgaretha, her hubby, Jean and some grandchildren (no names but you can see them next to Jean). They usually mention it whenever Gui and Linus attend things, so I guess it is safe to say that the heir and his wife didn't bother to show up. BTW, this is not the first time that Gui and Linus didn't attend events that were honouring past grand dukes/grand duchesses. I also wonder why Henri's brother Guillaume didn't turn up, it was a weekend, so he clearly didn't have to work. The same goes for the rest of the grandchildren (minus the 4 who turned up), none of them has a valid excuse to miss this. They were also not sitting on the other side of the aisle because the chamber president and his wife (?) were sitting there. From the pics and the newspaper articles that were published so far, one gets the impression that both Guis, Linus, the rest of Henri's children, the Korns and several other grandchildren did not attend.
