Genie is part of a new documentary on the National Gallery. Dressed simply and soberly, she introduces herself as Eugenie, no HRH or Princess. She speaks of her love of art and tells about the painting she has chosen, Antonio de Correggio's The Madonna of the Basket. https://www.dailymail.co....rt-similarities-life.html"'I've chosen Correggio's Madonna of the Basket and it's from 1524. I see a lot of similarities with this and my life.'"  as she goes on about being the mother of two sons ... so many "I's" in her quoted remarks, she outdoes the Queen of I, la Markle. It can never just be about anything but her (in a circle-back fashion) I guess. |

I'm baffled. The painting is exceptional but the rational is... well I guess you can't take the York out of the girl. She sees herself in the Madonna, and her sons in Jesus Christ, rising up against the ashes of the ruins around them. Because the Mary looks less Saint-like, than normal, out of virginal blue and pristine setting, due to a beige dress with a basket and that models Eugenies humble life toiling with her boys in domesticity  |

I cannot imagine they were friends.
Nevertheless, Michelle's death was so sad and unexpected (I think to most of us). She was so young!

Actress Michelle Trachtenberg, who I know best from Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Gossip Girl, died yesterday. Apparently she had a liver transplant very recently.
The family declined an autopsy for religious reasons, so cause of death is unknown.

Why would she lie about being friends? |

G I disagree. Most people on SM now are moving away from showing their children's faces. I don't consider it rude at all. Whether people like it or not, she is a member of the BRF and a figure of interest to the public. She has actually never done anything wrong, other than some people's perceptions. She doesn't owe anyone full frontal pics of her kids. She is allowed to manager her SM any way she wants. I personally enjoy her family updates. |

I don't think she's obliged to show their faces. Yes, I would like to see the boys but, on the other hand, it's not my business. They're not the heirs, they will benefit from their mother's status but they won't get any public role (most likely).
Having said that, her youngest seems to be a total replica of his mother. 😄

I, too, find it rude. I don’t care to see her boys, but even if I did I could easily accept that she doesn’t want them to be seen. But this fad of “in your face not showing” is arrogant. IMO.

This is very common, the handful of people I know around my age with kids do this. They share updates on their social media about their children, but often either show the back of the heads or use an emoji to cover the face. Social media is SO prevalent, and who is to say these children will grow up wanting their picture splashed all over the internet?

IMO if you don't want to show your kids, which is fine, then just don't. Back of head or emoji covers are just unnecessary when there's a far easier solution. I do agree that it is slightly arrogant...you can see my wonderful mothering, and hopefully praise me, but you can't see the kids (not that we need to nor are we entitled to).
