While Princess Kate had engaged in diplomacy in a Tolu Coker coat in the morning, in the evening, she upped the ante with a look that left nothing to chance. Windsor Castle hosted the state dinner that King Charles and Queen Camilla hosted in honor of the President of Nigeria, Bola Tinubu, and his wife, and Kate appeared in an emerald-green silk chiffon dress that, in itself, sent another message. Green is the predominant color on Nigeria’s flag, and choosing it for the official evening event after wearing a dress by a Nigerian-born designer in the morning makes the entire…
Princess Kate has a very special talent for using clothing to send a message, and she demonstrated it once again this Wednesday. On the occasion of the state visit of President Bola Tinubu of Nigeria and his wife, Oluremi, the Prince and Princess of Wales welcomed them to The Fairmont Windsor Park Hotel. For the welcome, Kate set aside her usual designer labels and wore, for the first time, a coat by Tolu Coker, a British-Nigerian designer and one of the most influential voices on the London creative scene. Choosing that piece for that specific event was no coincidence. What…

There’s something about Queen Letizia that has always struck me, and it’s not just that she looks flawless at every event. The thing is, at 53, she has a physique that many 30-year-olds would envy. Toned arms, a strong back, and solid posture. None of that is luck or pure genetics. There’s a routine behind it, and it’s quite demanding. What sports does Queen Letizia do to get that athletic body? The Queen does a combination of different activities. Her daily routine includes stationary biking, yoga, Pilates, stretching, and strength training. But there is one activity that is more surprising…

What will happen to Infanta Sofia when Princess Leonor becomes Queen of Spain? This question has been around for a long time, and it’s becoming increasingly important. It is clear that Leonor has been preparing to become queen for years. But what role will Sofia play in that future? Infanta Sofia studies in Portugal, appears at events when called upon, and keeps a low profile—which, according to some experts on Spanish royalty, is not by chance but by strategy. Olga Pérez, Semana magazine’s royal family specialist, and journalist Ana Polo Alonso have very clear opinions on what awaits her, and…
Kate Middleton returned to the public agenda with one of those visits that combine protocol with genuinely human moments. Accompanied by William, she toured the Bermondsey Beer Mile, a route of independent breweries and craft bars in south London. They stopped by Borough Market, served coffee, put on aprons to hand out crumble with custard, visited the RNLI rescue station on the Thames, and even poured pints. It was a long, eventful, and quite revealing day. Why did Kate decline to try the beers during her visit to the Bermondsey Beer Mile? The most talked-about moment came at Fabal Beerhall,…

The Spanish royal family has an unwritten rule for March 8: silence. International Women’s Day usually goes by without an official statement, as the Spanish Royal Family prefers to stay out of the political debate surrounding the date. That’s why it was surprising that the Princess of Girona Foundation, chaired by Leonor, decided to publish a message on that day. This move went almost unnoticed in the media, but royal expert Ana Polo Alonso didn’t hesitate to comment on it in Semana, stating bluntly, “I thought it was very good.” What the Princess of Girona Foundation’s message said on International…
