The Royal Family Continues to Arrive

The royal family continues to arrive for the wedding of Crown Princess Anastasia and Hisirdoux, the Duke of Clois. 

The first to arrive from the heir’s immediate family was her younger brother, Prince Michael, escorting his longtime girlfriend, Thalia Fae Melbourne, the eldest daughter of Princess Victoria and Tyson, the Duke of Melbourne. This is the first time that Thalia has been photographed attending a close family event alongside Prince Michael, which appears to suggest that this royal romance is becoming quite serious... @thealbionroyals 

Not far behind his big brother, came Prince Charles. The King and Queen’s second son walked into the cathedral solo, thus throwing away speculation that he would be joining his mother, Queen Elissa for the drive and arrival at the cathedral. The young prince, who bares a STRIKING resemblance to his father, was seen pausing within the doors, possibly to await for his mother’s arrival. 

Stay tuned for the arrival of the Queen, bridal party and the bride and groom!

Royal Family Attends Christmas Day Services

Of course, it isn’t Christmas until the royal family makes their walk to the Chapel Royale. 

The King and Queen were joined by the Duke and Duchess of Asbury and their children, the Dowager Duchess of Carlisle and her children and the children of the late Princess Isabel. This year also marked a very special occasion, the first time that the Duke of Clois joined the family on the walk to church, arm in arm with his wife, Crown Princess Anastasia. 

However, what surprised most royal watchers this year wasn’t the newlyweds being adorable (although we all knew it was coming), or how big Lady Marie has gotten (She was just a newborn last year, how is she already a toddler?!), it was how detached the King appeared to be from the rest of his immediate family. 

The King, of course lead the pack of his family arriving to church, but instead of walking in hand in hand with the Queen, the King pointedly stepped in front of them during the walk, while the Queen held on tightly to the hand of the couple’s youngest daughter, Princess Alice. 

The rest of the couple’s children, barely seem to pay their father any heed, chatting happily amongst their siblings, with some passerby reportedly hearing the Princes Michael and Robert having an energetic conversation about dinosaurs (not surprisingly, the elder of the two Princes was photographed by the press wearing dinosaur footie pajamas just two years ago). Even the Queen herself didn’t seem to pay attention to her husband of 25 years, choosing instead to smile at the crowds. Regardless, the couple appeared to be in good spirits after the service as they left with the rest of their family for their Christmas breakfast. 

Merry Christmas to all those who celebrate!

King and Queen Share Christmas Card

Of course, it wouldn’t be the holidays without the King and Queen’s official Christmas card. 

This year however, the monarchs went against tradition and instead split the Christmas card up, with one photograph featuring the King and Queen, another featuring Prince Michael, Princess Sophie and Prince Charles, a second featuring the twin princes, Prince Robert and Prince Benjamin and finally, a solo picture of the couple’s youngest daughter, Princess Alice, who recently celebrated her 6th birthday. 

In previous years, the King and Queen have had a group photograph featuring all of their children, but that appeared to not be in the cards for this year. Also not featured in the cards was Crown Princess Anastasia, the Duchess of Bilchester and Clois, who released her own Christmas card with her husband, Hisirdoux, the Duke of Clois, earlier this week. According to a source within the palace, the  choice was done intentionally. “The Royal Family is so busy with work and school, that getting them all together for one photograph only to go back home didn’t make much sense. It was simply a matter of getting whoever was available to take the photograph at that time.”  

The Royal Family is expected to make their traditional walk to Christmas Service at the Chapel Royale tomorrow morning with the King’s sisters, brother-in-law nieces and nephews in attendance.

Nimben Palace, Early Evening

Elissa: Charles. Where are you going? 

Charles: It’s just a party Mom. Relax. 

Elissa: Charles, you have school in the morning. 

Charles: Yeah, and? 

Elissa: I know my boy. If you go out and party, then you’re going to be absolutely exhausted in the morning and won’t want to go to school. You have exams tomorrow. 

Charles: Which is why I’m going to the party. 

Elissa: Why can’t we celebrate after the exams are over? 

Charles: Do you think Dad would let me? This party is… 

Elissa: You’ll have plenty more opportunities to go to parties, I promise. But tonight… maybe it isn’t the best night. 

Charles: Aunt Claire used to go out and party all the time. Why can’t I? 

Elissa: Trust me, if there was a way for you to party and pass your exams, I’d let you know. But, your aunt started going out to parties after she had passed her exams and her tests. And at the time, she was at a very different place in succession than you. 

Charles: But she was the fourth kid of the monarch. 

Elissa: That she was. But… she was also 7th in line to the throne at the time. I’m sorry hon. Maybe tomorrow night. 

Charles: Fine.

Happy Birthday Your Majesty! 

In celebration of His Majesty’s 45th birthday today, Nimben Palace released a series of family images, taken earlier this month at Nimben Palace. 

The photos feature the King and Queen alongside their children, as well as the Queen Dowager in the portraits. Also a surprise, a very loving photo of the King and Queen together, looking very much in love after 19 years of marriage. 

Most of the Royal Family is expected to gather within the next few days to celebrate the King’s official birthday and Carrington Day with the Trooping the Color to mark both events. 

Happy birthday Your Majesty!

Royal Adventures in Parenting

After a very full and busy day, Queen Elissa made her final stop at the Nimben Play Nursery, to pick up her youngest child, Prince Charles. 

The young prince appeared adamant about not leaving, even throwing a temper tantrum outside of the main entrance and refusing to move. The 14 month old Prince is said to be the troublemaker of his siblings, and in between her four children, the Queen has her hands full. 

Eventually, the Queen was able to get her son to calm down, undoubtedly using the experience she’s gained from taking care of the Crown Princess, Prince Michael and Princess Sophie. 

Paying no heed to the cameras focused on them, mother and son entered their private car and drove back to Nimben Palace for dinner.

Landfarm Park Shares Delightful Family Photo

Ahead of Easter Services earlier today, which occurred out of view of cameras, and Her Majesty’s upcoming 70th birthday, Landfarm Park, the Queen Dowager’s Country Home, shared a photo of her with all 11 of her grandchildren. 

The caption reads: 

In celebration of this Easter season, as well as Her Majesty’s 70th birthday, Her Majesty is delighted to share the following photo, taken earlier this week at Landfarm Park while her grandchildren were visiting. 

The Crown Princess and Lord Thomas stood toward the back, with their younger siblings, Prince Michael, Princess Sophie, Prince Charles, Lady Gianna, Lord Chandler and Lord Nicodemo in front of them. Also featured in the photo were Lady Diane and Lord Sebastian, as well as Lord Elias, the Earl of Barre, her youngest grandchild, happily seated on her lap. 

The Queen Dowager has not been seen publicly in quite a number of months, since the Earl and Countess of Loch Haven’s wedding, as well as Lady Diane and Lord Sebastian, who have been carefully kept out of the public eye by their parents. 

Happy Easter!

Nimben Palace, ~8:30pm

Charles: Where are you going? 

Sophie: Out. 

Charles: Out where? 

Sophie: Why does it matter? You’re not going. 

Charles: Dad said… 

Sophie: I know.

Charles: But why are you going out, Dad… 

Sophie: Charlie, listen. Dad doesn’t care about what I do. Mom knows that I’m going out, and she’s fine with it. Now can I leave to go see my friends or not? 

Charles: Fine. You’re gonna be in a lot of trouble when you get back though.

Prince Charles’s Christening!

Prince Charles Louis Bjorn, the second son and fourth child of the King and Queen, was christened today in a private ceremony at Nimben Palace. Following the service, the family took celebratory photos which were released to the press. 

The couple asked the Duke of Asbury, Princess Isabel, Lady Alice Oniojor and Lord Lucas Munch to serve as godparents to the young prince. Also in attendance were the Queen Dowager, the Duchess of Asbury, the Duke and Duchess of Wilkes and Viscountess Sofia Wilkes. Princess Katherine was unable to attend due to her impending due date. 

There is presently no information regarding the King’s coronation.

The King and Queen Present Their Son!

The new King Richard and Queen Elissa presented their newborn son on the steps of the Queen Abigail’s Wing, where they presented the couple’s 3 other children: Crown Princess Anastasia, Prince Michael and Princess Sophie. 

The couple wore dark clothes to pay homage to the death of King Louis, but happily waved to the gathered crowd. The new Prince is 4th in line to the throne and is expected to meet his older sisters and brother later this evening. 

After the parents of four had walked back inside the hospital, Nimben Palace announced that the King and Queen had decided to name their son, Charles Louis Bjorn, in honor of the respective fathers of the King and Queen as well as the grandfather of the Queen. Many people were surprised by the name choice, with many bookies expecting a “Louise” or “Louis” in honor of the late King. 

The new Prince is known as HRH the Prince Charles of Carrington.

Nimben Palace, ~2pm

Charles: It’s not fair! 

Sophie: It is too fair!

Charles: No it’s not! 

Sophie: Eli and I want to watch Voidcritters, not Jungle Jumping. 

Charles: I’m younger!

Elias: I’m younger! So I say we watch Voidcritters!

Charles: Since when? 

Elias: Since always!

Sophie: I’m the oldest, and I say that we watch Voidcritters! 

Charles: I’m telling Mama and Auntie Claire that you’re being mean to me.

Sophie: You can tell Mama, but she’ll say that we can watch Voidcritters without you there. 

Charles: No she won’t! You’re both gonna get in trouble!

Elias: Mommy isn’t…

Corina: Can the three of you please be quiet while your father is trying to work? 

Elias: Sorry. 

Charles: Where’s Mama? 

Corina: Working with your aunt. The three of you ought to know better than to run around during working hours. 

Sophie: But Mama said… 

Corina: Well, I’m just repeating what your father said to me. And as far I’m concerned, your father’s voice outweighs your mothers. 

Elias: Well, she’s not very nice. 

Sophie: I don’t think she likes us. She’s always yelling at us when we’re being “too loud”. Even at Annie and Mikey. 

Charles: But she’s really nice whenever Daddy or Mommy is around.  

Elias: So, what should we do now?
