Prince of Wales, Happy birthday. The photos with your children are full of energy and give us hope. I think "hope" is one of the most important treasures for all people.

@mjc63 23 дня назад

Always thrilled to see Queen Margarethe’s gorgeous creations, and I am glad she is still able to add to her artistic legacy for the people of Denmark (and us!)! Cheers, Michael Albuquerque NM USA,

I concur, Michael! I hope all is well with you and Happy Sunday! 🙂💐

Thank you Alexandra. Where to start - all my favourites have been out and about. Queen Margrethe is so talented - just amazing. The Emperor and Empress of Japan looked so happy to be on tour. Wonderful to see Princess Charlotte enjoying herself at the concert - happy birthday to the Prince of Wales. Well done Queen Mary - she also looked like she was enjoying herself. Great to see Princess Stephanie of Monaco taking part in more royal events. 🇦🇺

Princess Stephanie of Monaco was dressed too casually for the Palace Guards' Graduation ceremony - a bit disrespectful, I think.

Lovely to see Queen Margaerite still working as a designer. I wonder if any of her grandchildren besides Nicolai who works as a model has any artistic abilities. I do not count sport in this.Her husband Henrik was artistic.😊

@TheRoyalCorrespondent 23 дня назад

Hi, Kristine, how are you? Well, I hope!🙂💐 Regarding, Queen Margrethe, I agree with you! I'm happy to see her doing something that she loves. By the way, if you're interested, there is a wonderful documentary entitled, Her Majesty's Time Off: The Queen's Private Life. In the documentary, The Queen talks about her passion for the art, costume design and much more. The documentary is in English. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Pc_xE6PHz4U.html

Wonderful news from Luxembourg I have noticed Hereditary Grand Duke Guillem has been quite involved in his country's events, soon his father will appoint him Grand Duke for now congratulations on his appointment as Lieutenant Representant. Grand Duchess Maria Teresa looked so happy, bless her heart. Retired Queen Margrethe is having the time of her life, she is so talented too! Love to see Queen Mary of Denmark hosting the annual Marathon Song what fun to sing along. Congratulations to Prince William on his 42nd birthday. He and kids look very happy. What a treat to attend a Taylor Swift Concert. Congratulations to all the Recruit Graduation young people, all dressed so nice and proper (except Stephanie) great four new entrance to the Palace Carabiner made it 👏👏 Hope the Emperor and Empress of Japan have a great visit to the UK. Take care Alexandra be happy.

I'm glad that Emperor Noruhito and Empress Masako of Japan made it to England. Masako had on a light blue dress suit with a white hat, white heels, and pearl necklace. I love this outfit so much! It's so elegant, chic, and ladylike. Queen Mary of Denmark has on a golden yellow maxi dress with white lilies when she host the marathon song. I like the dress, It's beautiful but she should save that for fall. Grand Duchess Maria Theresa of Luxemburg wore a mauve pink maxi dress with a one shoulder cape during National day. This dress is beautiful I can't believe she finally had a good outfit. Good job Maria Theresa! Plus Grand Duke Henri looked amazing in her military uniform. Princess Maria Carolina of Bourbon Two Sicilies looked beautiful the first time I saw her. I never paid attention to her outfits until now, she has on a pink floral dress with butterfly details. It's so cute and feminine. Happy birthday Your Highness!

@user-cj6ws4dz1m 23 дня назад

That to me is a prelude to an imminent abdication..The Grand Duke is 79 and perhaps he wants to enjoy some quality time for himself and his other half while he's still fit and healthy.. 🤔

@lignaquy 23 дня назад

Oh no. The Grande Duke Is 69.Anyway a good Time to enjoy Life!!!

@vanitylaurence7339 23 дня назад

The Grand-Duc is 69 not 79. It is usual that in their family they “abdicate” and enable the heir to take the throne when they are still alive and ensure smooth transmission. It is not seen as an abdication but rather a retirement for them.

@nouchestagnan6304 22 дня назад

@johnsonrhythm3166 23 дня назад

Awwwwwww 🥰 Such beautiful news today. Thank you Alexandra. As for the Grand Duke of Luxembourg, this doesn't come as a surprise at all, I watched his interview a few months ago when he talked about abdication, clearly it's something that will happen soon because he mentioned the date has already been decided and he's ready for the younger generation to takeover and bring in their vigour to governance. I also can't wait for more events of the Japanese Imperial Couple's state visit to the UK to unfold, state banquets and all. 😊

@creature57 23 дня назад

The Grand Duchess seems to be a handful to be honest. The next generation is ready and should be brought in. This was a good decision by the Grand Duke. He sees it's time.

I agree , it is TIME. Look how all those Belgian royal kids hug each other. Can't wait for the state dinner tiaras. Maybe the Empress will break out the Chrysanthemum tiara, that's a sweet one! Since the Japanese women don't wear colored stones, usually either diamonds or pearls I am going to go out on a limb and say Q.Camilla might do the pearl version of the Vladimir tiara OR another all diamond tiara , maybe the famous " wall of diamonds" a.k,a. the kokoshnik. So glad to see Q.Margrethe keeping so busy, she is so talented. Q.Mary & K.Frederik keeping so busy, each on their own! Love that picture of Prince William and the kids, Happy Birthday P. William! Cute selfie at the T.Swift concert. Wow, busy over there in Monaco. Awww, the bourbon girl is back, and look she likes Mickey>. Happy Birthday 🥹 Ty Alexandra!

@@twilightpurpleglow ....She's not so lovely. Grand Duchess Maria Teresa has been accused, TWICE in four years, of abusive behavior toward the staff at the palace.

@vivianlottering8091 23 дня назад

I don’t think the Grand Duke will abdicate. Not if the Grand Duchess has a say. Apparently she’s very… let’s just say “spirited”. It will definitely be a surprise to me if he does abdicate. Then again, abdication seems to be common in the duchy so maybe. It will be interesting to watch it all play out. In the United Kingdom and Commonwealth realms abdication is a bad word so seeing other European monarchs abdicate is truly interesting. Here it’s till the monarch takes his last breath. God save the King of course 🇬🇧😅

@kristinedunner988 23 дня назад

Australia is a realm and from here I do wish to Queen had abdicated about 15 years before she died ,giving Charles a turn in his fifties. I hope he abdicates to give William a turn in his fifties😊

@vivianlottering8091 23 дня назад

@@kristinedunner988I would also prefer it if the king abdicated in the next 5 years or so. One advantage is that it’s not as sad as having to take to the throne when your parent has just died. The joy between Queen Margarethe and King Frederick was so refreshing to see. In stark contrast to the absolute sadness you could see on King Charles’s face at his ascension.

@@kristinedunner988 given the horrors of the Duke of Windsor’s abdication and blame laid upon the Duke for her father’s premature death, I don’t think that was ever an option. Her famous broadcast ay age 21 spelled it out very clearly!

Hi, Vivian, how are you? I hope all is well! 🙂💐 Regarding, The Grand Duchess, from what I understand as well she...passionate.😉 As for The Grand Duke, it wouldn't surprise me if he didn't abdicate and let The Hereditary Grand Duke do all of the work until The Grand Duke passes. Or, The Grand Duke will wait to abdicate until his grandchildren, Prince Charles and Prince François, are older. Or, The Grand Duke will abdicate days after his Silver Jubilee on October 2, 2025.

@maxallen-macdonald8791 23 дня назад

Thank you so much for this and for your revelations about the Grand Duke. My only hesitation is that the Hereditary Grand Duke and Duchess have such young children. This change may restrict their family time but we shall see. The same concerns were raised by QE II I believe about William assuming full time royal duties while George was so young. Seems a bit sad that parents never seem to have enough time to do the family things these days. Cheers!

@TheRoyalCorrespondent 23 дня назад

You're so very welcome, Maxallen! 🙂💐 Regarding, the Hereditary Grand Ducal couple, I was thinking the same thing when I received the press release announcing The Grand Duke's decision.

@mjc63 23 дня назад

Agree on the issue of Gr. Duke’s very young children but it is his duty to take over, and his father was generous paving the way with early notice served. Compare and contrast to the poor King of Norway, clearly an ill, suffering man who has a son and daughter in law who could quite capably manage - right now. His cousin Queen Margarethe got it right. Is Sweden next, now that the 50th Jubilee year was such a success?

@muhammadasruni8992 23 дня назад

For luxembourg based on history this move by grand duke henri was acceptable but henri only 69 and guillaume 42 Henri become grand duke age 45 and his father jean 79 all the sign of henri early abdication is beacuse the gap of age between henri and guillaume just 26 years compared to jean and henri 34 at the end the age factor made guillaume and stepanie decision to have a child only after 7 years of marriage being reasonable, excluding stepanie family history and 2025 is the year which henri will celebtare his silver jubilee hope he only abdicate after that event About king harald just keep going haakon can be regent whenever king take sick leave and its not permanent And king carl said in her speech at golden jubilee celebration that his grandfather king gustav vi devoted his life for sweden up to his 90 just a note that he will devoted his life for sweden too At least 2026 80th birthday celebration for king carl 2027 50th birthday celebration for crown princess victoria 2033 diamond jubilee for king carl, yet he only 87 while most of his uncle and other bernadotte able to live beyond age of 90

@vanitylaurence7339 23 дня назад

It is normal process for this family and it is not really a surprise as his son already took more responsibilities the last 3 years and even more. He talked about it in a recent interview that taking a retirement is something he was thinking about - his father did the same. The transmission for them is when the person is still alive not after dead like in UK.

@kimberlytyrcha5930 22 дня назад

Like someone said, it's Guillaume's duty to take over. There are lots of couples all over the world who both work and raise children. There's no reason Guillaume and Stephanie can't do it. When Jean took on this same position, he and Josephine-Charlotte had 5 young children and they managed to do it and raise their children. So there's no reason Guillaume and Stephanie can't do it too. It's not really that hard of a job. The Grand Duke doesn't have any actual power anymore.

That’s because the State Visit starts on Tuesday when the Prince of Wales will greet them at their hotel and drive with them to Horseguards for the official greeting with the King.

@Emmajaymusic 23 дня назад

A spot UK election was called by the PM. During this time until election is over, Te Royal Family traditionally cut all appointments that could be seen as political favouring. It was decided not to cancel this visit, however, it will be a quieter affair not to draw attention away from the political goings on in the Parliament.

Grand Duke Henry said about 2-3 months ago that he started to put the wheels in motion to abdicate. I just don't remember the outlet.

@philippapay4352 21 день назад

I would think that he might not have been prepared to abdicate until Guillaume's two very young children are in school. But the shenanigans surrounding his wife's behavior or interpretations of same may have catapulted him to a somewhat earlier date.

Loving this video but I have to say I still can't get my head around the Two Sicilies. I know they are a branch of the Bourbon but the current family seem at odds with their kingdom. I am assuming they live elsewhere and it is purely a hereditary title with benefits, considering their other titles. Google does have limitations.

There has been no Kingdom of the Two Sicilies for more than 160 years. It was annexed into the Kingdom of Italy after the unification in 1861.

@TheRoyalCorrespondent 21 день назад

Hi, Dwayne! Regarding your question, I was referring to the allegations of mistreatment of staff in late 2022 and the infamous 44-page Waringo Report, by the former civil servant of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg, Mr. Jeannot Waringo. In the report, it confirmed that there was an atmosphere of fear among staff and that: "...out of a total workforce of around 110 employees, 51 individuals left their posts with the Grand Ducal Court, either through resignation or dismissal, between 2014 and 2019. This excludes those former employees who left due to retirement. To prevent more staff from leaving their jobs, Mr. Waringo proposed a better work atmosphere and improved internal communication. He added that the most important decisions concerning personnel management were found to be taken by Her Royal Highness the Grand Duchess. On this point, among others, he highlighted the need to reform the functioning of Luxembourg's monarchy."
