Royal Round Up time! This week we have Sophie Countess of Wessex, Queen Letizia, Camilla Duchess of Cornwall, and Queen Maxima all getting it done royal-duty style. We also have Prince Harry, Princess Eugenie, and Princess Beatrice (on her fourth holiday in seven weeks) holiday-ing it up in Verbier. Cameos by the Queen, Prince Edward, […]
I was going to put Camilla in the Royal Round Up post, but she gives so many great quotes (which is awesome!) that her section got so long it deserved it’s own post.
