Happy Birthday, Prince Christian of Hanover!




On June 1st, Prince Christian of Hanover celebrated his 26th birthday. He is the Prince Ernst-August of Hanover second son and, let's say it, quite good looking. Can you imagine being at a table with him and his stepbrothers, the Casiraghis?
Yeah, let's not imagine that. Happy birthday to him, and we are glad to have him on our Royal Bachelors list ;)

[Germany] Prince Ernst August of Hanover failed on his appeal against his conviction after a beating attack in Kenya

Ahhh... it had been some kind of a "long time no see" this Prince EA of H. Okay, back to the news...
Prince Ernst August of Hanover failed the appeal against his conviction after a beating attack in Kenya. The Fiest Criminal Division of the Higher Regional Court of Celle had the appeal against the ruling of the District Court of Hildesheim. On March 9th, 2010 it was unanimously rejected as it was found manifestly unfounded, said the Court of Appeals on Thursday. The ruling by the district court say there was no mistake in detriment of the Prince. So the verdict is final. Prince EA was sentenced to 200 000 € fine for assault. The husband of Princess Caroline The prince had beaten Kenya in 2000 in a disco owner, because he felt bothered by noise.

[Monaco] Princess Caroline and daughter, Princess Alexandra, attend the Chanel Collection Croisiere Show 2011/2012





I am clearly in a Caroline de Monaco stretch here: just two days after attending the 44th Concours International de Bouquets, the Princess made an appearance at the Chanel Collection Croisiere Show 2011-12 at the Hotel du Cap in Cap d'Antibes, France. Several celebrities attended - Vanessa Paradis, Alexa Chung - but Blake Lively was the one to seem to get the Princesses' biggest attention. They chatted, had photos taken together and even exchanged numbers. A pure Royalty meets Hollywood moment.







[Monaco] Princess Caroline of Hanover, Princess of Monaco, attends the 44th Concours International de Bouquets


Princess Caroline of Hanover, the Hereditary Princess of Monaco attended the 44th edition of an international flower/bouquet competition (mere translation), created by her mother, Princess Grace, in 1968. Caroline took over as a patron since 1982 and has attended ever since. She was wearing what we can call a flowery dress (I bet it is a Lanvin, by the style) and sky high Louboutin red shoes.
