News and photos Prince and Princess of Wales

[Booklover]

and as for her hair, she can wear it however, she wants to.

Of course she can, but we're also free to remark on how it looks. I don't think she needs to cut it super short. I don't think every middle aged woman needs to wear short hair. However, her hair is SO long and so thick that it overwhelms her thin frame. She should at least take her extensions out if she doesn't want to lose any of the length.

I agree. I like her hair shoulder length.

[getafix]

Sorry but he looks poorly dressed as always and if she is rewearing why have the too long and too wide pants not be refitted? And if there is any money from the budget left over suggest a cheap haircut and if you really are packing boxes then a huge ring would be in the way.... I call a photo op only and maybe a carefully arranged “oh here we aren’t doing anything”

Her hair is ridiculous.

I agree - if she'd just pulled it back into a simple ponytail !  It's not the length, for me.  I just hate seeing her hair, actually anyone's hair of that length, all loosey-goosey [and subject to wind & weather].  I thought William looked pretty good today though.

I would guess that Louis has a different schedule then Charlotte and George so he is probably driven separately.

Louis is 4, so should be at school full time by now (the age to start school in the UK is 4/5). Unless private school is different.

Louis is 4, so should be at school full time by now (the age to start school in the UK is 4/5). Unless private school is different.

He'll be in what we call 'Reception' class. The children are 4 turning 5 during the school year. William is 9, turning 10 (Year 5) and Charlotte 7, turning 8 (Year 3).

They all go to a private school (Prep School). Louis will be in the 'Pre-prep' department so his hours will probably be 8 -3, (or 3:30). The older 2 will be in the 'Prep' department and so possibly 8 - 4:30 (or 5) At our school the prep children have Saturday school as well, although not all schools do. The older children will probably have sports matches against other schools all Wednesday afternoon.

(State funded schools are different. 9.00 - 3:30 (ish) for all and no Saturday school...shorter school breaks too)

i like the suit and absolutely love the earrings but just not with this outfit.

[anneboleyn]

I'd like it better if she wasn't in red from head to toe.

She’s a beautiful woman. I hate the earrings and the make up is a bit heavy.

But I hate myself for picking at her over such a big moment.

[Skirt Queen]

She looks really excited and proud.

Good evening. Thank you, Amanda, and Lokki once again for that wonderful performance.

This week sees the launch of our new awareness raising campaign, Shaping Us.

The campaign is fundamentally about shining a spotlight on the critical importance of early childhood and how it shapes the adults we become.

During this time we lay the foundations and building blocks for life.

It is when we learn to understand ourselves, understand others and understand the world in which we live.

This is why it is essential, to not only understand the unique importance of our earliest years, but to know what we can all do to help raise future generations of happy, healthy adults.

Shaping Us is a long-term campaign, and we’re starting by highlighting how we develop during early childhood and why these years matter so much in terms of shaping who we become.

As the campaign progresses, we will explore in more depth the importance of a child’s social and emotional world, the significance of relationships, and the impact of the surroundings and experiences a child is exposed to during these formative years.

Together these play a key role in shaping our future lives. Yet they rarely get as much focus as our physical health and cognitive development.

And of course, by understanding our own childhoods – what has shaped our own beliefs, relationships, behaviours and feelings – we, as adults, are better placed to play our part in positively shaping future generations.

Those involved in raising children today need the very best of information and support in helping to achieve this mission – and this campaign aims to help do that too.

I want to say a huge and heartfelt thank you to so many of you in this room, for your ongoing work in this area.

Thank you for the years of dedication and your unfailing determination to advocate for and improve the lives of the very youngest members of our society.

And thank you also to many of you in this room this evening, for your personal support to me in helping me develop my thinking and work on this issue over the years.

As you all know, by building a supportive, nurturing world around children and those caring for them, we can make a huge difference to generations to come.

Because fundamentally healthy, happy children shape a healthy, happy future.

Thank you.

[Harley]

She looks incredible here, IMO. The only thing I can find fault with is that it’s, sadly, very unlikely that she’ll send me those earrings once she’s done with them.

The struggle is real when it comes to me and earring envy

Of note: tomorrow is Carole’s birthday.

A nice dedication to her own Mother, IMO. Coincidence or not.
