Prince William has been dealing with a minor but curious issue since moving to Forest Lodge. ​​It turns out that Windsor Great Park, where his new home, which he calls his “forever home,” is located, has a clear rule regarding electric scooters: they are prohibited. The regulations cite safety and traffic management as the reasons. ​​And of course, he, who loved riding his e-scooter around the castle grounds, now has to leave it parked. A close source said that William used to ride his scooter without any issues at his previous residence, Adelaide Cottage, because there were no restrictions. ​​In fact, he…

Kate welcomed the England women’s rugby team to Windsor Castle, choosing a perfectly fitting all-red outfit. The Red Roses won the World Cup last September, and as patron of the Rugby Football Union, the Princess of Wales hosted a reception to celebrate. Thirty-two players, along with team officials and staff, gathered with her at an event that blended protocol with the sporty atmosphere Kate enjoys. Alexander McQueen’s red suit was the highlight. ​​An asymmetrical crepe blazer paired with slim bootcut trousers, both in a “Welsh Red” hue that honors the British flag and the team’s colors. No safe or neutral looks…

Something unprecedented happened today. ​​Leonor and Sofia attended the Greek Orthodox Cathedral of Saints Andrew and Demetrius in Madrid to bid farewell to Irene of Greece. And I say we hadn’t seen it because, until now, Felipe and Letizia’s daughters had never attended public events of this kind. ​​They were always absent for funerals or family farewells. ​​But this time, it was different. ​​They were there, alongside their grandmother Sofia, offering her support during a very difficult time. The image that struck me the most was seeing Leonor offer her arm to her grandmother as they entered the temple together. ​​As rain fell on Madrid,…

On Tuesday, January 13th, Queen Letizia attended the Royal Tapestry Factory in Madrid to present the Zenda Awards 2024-2025, which honor the best of Spanish literature. ​​And she did it by bringing back a blouse that had already won us over a couple of months ago. She wore a gray Hugo Boss shirt with a neck tie, which she debuted in November at the 40th anniversary of the CEOE Foundation, pairing it with a black leather skirt for a successful look. ​​This time, she took a completely different approach. Instead of repeating the same look with a skirt, she opted for black,…

It turns out Meghan Markle has sold nearly a million jars of jam. ​​Yes, you read that correctly. ​​Neither she nor her brand, As Ever, had disclosed the actual figures, but a technical glitch on their website revealed what no one expected to see so soon. According to data that was mistakenly revealed, only 130,000 units remain in stock out of an initial order of one million. ​​That means 87% of what you ordered has been processed. ​​Not bad for someone who launched this less than a year ago. Each gift box with its “Signature Fruit Spread” costs $42, so do the math. ​​We’re talking…

This week, Queen Máxima of the Netherlands gave us a masterclass on how to look impeccable at official events without becoming monotonous. On Monday, January 12th, she welcomed hundreds of Dutch guests at the Royal Palace in Amsterdam, and the following day she repeated the ritual with foreign diplomats and representatives of international organizations. Two consecutive receptions, two completely different looks. ​​And both, of course, are worth analyzing. For the first event, she chose a burgundy ensemble, pairing it with her Max Mara coat in the same flattering shade. She wore the Gianvito Rossi shoes we’ve seen her in before,…

Leonor’s appearance on January 6th may be one of the last we see for quite some time. ​​Zarzuela is clear that the heiress needs to focus on completing her military training without distractions, so don’t expect to see her at official events until June or July. The strategy is simple: maintain a low profile until she completes her training at the General Air Force Academy in San Javier, Murcia. Sources close to the Royal Household confirm that Leonor has no public engagements scheduled for the coming months, unless an exceptional circumstance or an internal royal family event arises. The goal is…

On Sunday, January 11th, Queen Mathilde of Belgium attended the Cathedral of Saint Michael and Saint Gudula, dressed elegantly and appropriately for the occasion. She was present alongside King Philippe for the pontifical mass that inaugurated the cathedral’s 800th-anniversary celebrations. Cardinal Pietro Parolin, the Vatican’s Secretary of State and papal legate, presided over the ceremony. For the occasion, Mathilde chose a Meer Couture coat over a Natan dress, her classic combination that never fails. The outfit’s details were well thought out. ​​She wore her Jimmy Choo Romy 85 in navy blue suede, a Christian Dior bag, and a Fabienne Delvigne Chambella…

After four years away from British soil, Meghan Markle may be about to end her absence. The Duchess of Sussex plans to accompany Harry to Birmingham in July for the 2027 Invictus Games countdown event. ​​But there is a significant “but.” ​​It all depends on whether the security they are requesting is approved. ​​And that’s where things get complicated. Harry has been fighting for years to receive police protection funded by British taxpayers when he visits the country. ​​He lost that automatic right when he stepped down as an active royal in 2020 and relocated to California. Last year, he lost his legal battle…

When Letizia Ortiz agreed to marry Felipe de Borbón, she didn’t just join the Spanish royal family. ​​She also had to go through something much less romantic: signing a tough prenuptial agreement. We’re talking about a very restrictive document, with specific clauses covering divorce, death, potential remarriages, and children. Spanish monarchist Pilar Eyre describes it this way on her blog, Lecturas. ​​The most disturbing part is that, after she signed it, the lawyers tried to console her by saying that if they separated, she would be “better off than Lady Di.” What a consolation, right? Letizia’s arrival at the Royal Household was…

The Royal Family’s Christmas holidays are over. ​​On the morning of January 6th, the Feast of the Epiphany, Felipe, Letizia, and Leonor reappeared at the Royal Palace for the Military Easter. ​​And it was Leonor who captured everyone’s attention. Having just turned 20 and dressed in the Air Force uniform, where she has been training in San Javier for months, the heiress demonstrated the poise she has been gaining with each public appearance. Her parents supported her every move, but she no longer needs as much help as she once did. Queen Letizia begins the year with sophisticated black and white attire…

Mary went all-in on white and gold for the last New Year’s reception at Christiansborg, and the result was a pure visual spectacle. The dress isn’t new; she had already worn it a year and a half ago in Greenland, but it works perfectly for an occasion like this. It’s formal, yet has a wintery touch: long sleeves, a shirt collar, and a metallic gold brocade that adds just the right amount of shine without being overdone. Given that Copenhagen’s streets were covered in snow this morning, the choice makes perfect sense. ​​Mary literally dressed like a snow queen, and the…
