She knows violence also means bullying of staff, family members, etc etc? It is both physical and mental?
Even more shameless than St Hoefia's "Let's stop online bullying" cause.
Why is it always the bully that takes up “Stop Bullying” “Stop Violence” campaigns. Or complains of being bullied.

Shameless... The website advertised at the bottom of her placard looks great; helplines for boys and men who are being abused, which is nice to see that need being acknowledged. I just hope that her reputation doesn't turn off people who could really benefit from the resources.

Really MT?! When did you clue in to this novel concept?! Was it after you bullied, bitch-slapped or threw shoes at your staff or all of the above? Great cause. Worst.Spokesperson.Ever.

I know we are in a pandemic, but considering the major conference MT held, I'm surprised how little she's done to mark IWD this year. Not even a Zoom chat with some Luxembourgish women?

https://today.rtl.lu/life/royals/a/1684881.htmlGrand Duchess Maria Teresa and her fight against preconceptionsIn the context of International Women's Day, the newspaper Essentiel published an exclusive interview with the Luxembourgish royal on Monday.
When asked about her experiences of ever being reduced to traditional gender roles, the Grand Duchess affirmed that it was inevitable even for her to not be pushed into certain positions where she was no longer able to behave as she desired. She explicitly referred to it as a veritable "fight" to make herself heard and be met with respect.
Grand Duchess Maria Teresa elaborated that she persists in these fights nevertheless, as she believes it to be her duty and a just cause. She emphasised that the support of her husband is an enormous help, but that she still has to fight against the preconceptions of others. The Essentiel interview does not go further into detail at that point.
The interviewer did however enquire about the Grand Ducal couple's recent purchasing of a residence in Biarritz. The royal noted that she always liked the location for its proximity to Spain where she grew up.
The Grand Duchess also revealed that she has not yet been vaccinated against Covid-19 and that she will wait for her turn.
Upon enquiry from our colleagues at RTL, the Palace conveyed that it did not need to authorise the interview as the Grand Duchess spoke on her own behalf, not as a royal representative. Officials also informed us that the Grand Ducal couple did not ask for permission prior to the recent interview published in Paris Match. Court Marshal Yuriko Backes, who was a guest at RTL Radio in February, noted that she would probably not have allowed the publication given the form of the article. During the interview in question, the Grand Duchess accused the country of practicing a form of misogyny for trying to "erase" her.

Maria Teresa has recorded a video message in occasion of 2021 Relais pour la Vie, relay run organised by the Luxembourg Cancer Foundation: I light this candle in remembrance of those who have passed away, but I would also like its flame to accompany those who have won the battle, and that it shines relentlessly for all those who still today face the disease.
To all of you I want to tell you that I am by your side. https://monarchie.lu/fr/a...age-de-la-grande-duchesseThis event usually gathers thousands of participants who run together in support of those affected by cancer. This year, the Foundation has set up a new way of connecting people in support of cancer patients and research by bringing runners together online. https://www.relaispourlavie.lu/

She looks like she's being filmed in some haunted mansion out of a horror film with the bad lighting.
She also looks orange and greasy.

I agree. This is quite a gloomy atmosphere to promote a hopeful cause... Really weird choice. I almost expect for Rebecca's ghost to burst into the frame. And her beauty routine looks somewhat harsh since the scandal. But maybe it's just her attitude, before that she was able to look warm and smiley.

This is horrible and personal but it looks to me like MT's last course of PS was not kind to her natural features. Her nose and eyebrows look different and it's really thrown off the balance of her face
