Luxembourg: activities and news

[Lady Adelaide]

The Luxes took part in the celebrations marking the closing of the Octave

[Miss Marple]

I hate to say it but MT looks good.

I hate to say it but MT looks good.

I am glad to say she still can look pretty and smart.

Even I'll admit MT looks presentable.

However, let's hope they turned the sprinklers off before they left France and gave the Cour staff plenty of notice of their arriving back in Lux so they could escape before Madam Grand Duchess return to show shoes and scream at them.

Regarding the sprinklers: the complaint was not about the estate in bormes les mimosas!
It was made by the mayor of Châteauneuf-Grasse, where GD Jean used to have a place near his brother in law king Albert. The mayor didn’t name anybody specifically. The place was rented after GD Jean’s death and was sold in 2022. So the current GD’ s can hardly be responsible of the water consumption during the last years. The Maréchalat de la Cour made an official statement regarding the issue. They also stated that the water consumption in Bormes les Mimosas has always been totally respectful of current regulations.

"respect" and the Grand Duke and Grand Duchess are not words we often hear in the same sentence at the moment

Interesting that the family had two French properties, I never knew that

[Mariola]

MT's hair is nice. The simplicity of her clothes is good.

Oh Claire - you look like an activities coordinator on a cruise ship

[Miss Marple]

I had high hopes for Claire. For someone who once had an own fashion line she looks totally disasterous.

[loveofenglishtradition]

The fashion business, as I understood, was mainly for children's clothes, called "Young Empire". It seems that Claire and Felix have finished the cooperation. They are not mentioned in the new homepage. And then, they both are rich, don't have to work to earn their living. I often wonder what I would do if I had lots of money, no need to go to work. Life would be wonderful but also a bit dull.

My feeling is that not one Lux princess must outshine La GD.

Henri and MT were at the Cannes Film Festival yesterday, and attended, among other things, a reception organized by the Film Fund Luxembourg

If she were forty years younger, and NOT the Grand Duchess of Luxembourg, I could understand MT wearing a sheer blouse to Cannes. But as things are… Is MT having some sort of crisis? Aging is hard I know, but honestly, none of us want to see your bra.

[ralf103]

I've got to ask this as its been bugging my for a while - why does MT keep wearing trousers that literally must reach her bra?
