Princess Elizabeth of Cambridge?

The beautiful new princess weighing 8 lb 3 oz was born at 8:34 am on Saturday, May 2 after a short labour.  She shares her birthday with Catherine the Great, a fascinating royal, and she is fourth in line to the throne.  Prince William said that he was very happy, and he introduced little Prince George to his new sister quite quickly.

Favourites for the princess's name include Charlotte, Alice and Elizabeth.  My favourite is Elizabeth - no prizes for guessing why!

Two Royal Proposals

Royal proposals often take place in beautiful and romantic settings. After all, royals can usually afford to pull out all the stops! Prince William and Prince Frederick certainly chose lovely places.

'No'!

Prince William proposed to Katherine on the slopes of Mount Kenya overlooking the glimmering lake. He probably flew her there by helicopter as well, which must have been exciting. He gave her his mother's sapphire ring to wear as her engagement ring.

Prince Frederick of Denmark chose 'the Eternal City' to propose. He proposed to his beautiful bride, who grew up in Australia, on a moonlit night in Rome. We don't know exactly where it was, however. Perhaps it was overlooking the panoramic view of the city from the Spanish Steps? CP Mary said in an interview that he made it very difficult for her to say

No Sign of Engaged Couple at Royal Christmas

Kate has chosen to spend her last Christmas with her family and Prince William also decided not to spend Christmas with his grandparents so that Kate wouldn't face pressure to go: Royal Christmas.

I hope to write a new post soon. Merry Christmas,everyone!

We Await Queen Kate

Yes, I will call her Princess Katherine soon. I just liked the title. A royal wedding! Bliss! I hope to study every aspect of it. I am very excited because Kate Middleton and I share a common ancestor. It will be good to be related to our future Queen.

In the meantime, wonderful Mandy at The Royal Representative has lots of news about it.

I know that I have been a bit 'slack' lately - I hope to write some new posts soon.

Welcome Prince William!

Welcome to the very handsome Prince William who is visiting Australia. He visited Redfern which shows a caring side and he won the hearts of most of us, I am sure.

I hope that the 'Prince of Hearts' enjoys his stay.
