## Kate and the Kids

![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/bf/b9/bfb99790-924d-4e41-a7e6-5e3c6e04fe57/content/images/static-gofugyourself-com/uploads/2016/02/gettyimages-508982568.jpg)

I always enjoy this suit on Kate, and her hair looks jaunty here, too, bangs and all. Let us turn to Informative Caption for more! "Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge poses for a photo with (L-R) Nimra, 10, Ryan, 10, Bailey-Rae ,7, and Connor, 11, from Salusbury Primary School in Queen's Park, London, during filming of a video message for Children's Mental Health week. Catherine is the royal patron of the children's mental health charity Place2Be and in her message she highlights the importance of giving youngsters the 'tools to cope, and to thrive' as they encounter life's challenges." I'm going to link to the video in the post; it's always weird for me to hear Kate talk, because her voice sounds different in my imagination. I don't know WHAT it sounds like in my imagination, but...different.

## Princess Eugenie, Princess Beatrice and Sarah Ferguson

This was the memorial service for Miles Frost, who was the son of the late Sir David Frost, who died (suddenly, and at quite a young age) over the summer. Everyone looks nice and appropriate.

## THE QUEEN

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/02/GettyImages-509007644.jpg)

How saucy is QE2, coming back from Sandringham in her polka dotted coat?

## Queen Elizabeth II

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/02/GettyImages-508934502.jpg)

"What the hell am I supposed to do with all of these?"

## QE2

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/02/GettyImages-509378658.jpg)

This is a rather good one. Ahem: "Queen Elizabeth II shakes hands with Liz Lochhead before presenting her with the Queen's Gold Medal for Poetry, accompanied by Poet Laureate Professor Dame Carol Ann Duffy during a private audience." YAY POETRY! Perhaps she can write one about the rug?

## Chaz

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/02/GettyImages-509378858.jpg)

This is ALLEGEDLY a visit to St John's Church, where Chaz "met members of the congregation and heard about the church's inter-faith work and role in the local community." I'm glad Informative Caption told me this, because my guess would have been, "Prince Charles tells concerned citizens all his worries about son Harry's marital prospects."

## Chaz

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/02/GettyImages-509377366.jpg)

"It's called DIRT, sir."

## Chaz

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/02/GettyImages-509377446.jpg)

"And then I used THE FORCE to destroy him. And that's why my sister Anne's not speaking to me anymore."

## Cams

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/02/GettyImages-509527546.jpg)

Cams was awarded an honorary doctorate at the University Of Southampton where she also got to look at the DNA of various naughty subjects.

## Camilla

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/02/GettyImages-509334298.jpg)

She also visited Royal Trinity Hospice, where she looked rather nice in this grey suit. Camilla is very good with the elderly (not that this bloke is any older than she is).

## Sophie Wessex

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/02/GettyImages-509162676.jpg)

Per Informative Caption, "Sophie, Countess of Wessex, decorates biscuits, cup cakes and icing crowns as she visits Christopher's Children's Hospice to mark the 15th birthday of the charity Shooting Star Chase." Lots of celebratory pastry this week! I approve.

## Launch Of The Fashion Rules Exhibition At Kensington Palace

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/02/GettyImages-509145758.jpg)

Also! There's an exhibit at Kensington Palace that some of you should go see and then report back. Allegedly, the exhibition "contains pieces including the dress Queen Elizabeth II wore for her official Silver Jubilee photograph and a dress worn by Diana, Princess of Wales, for her last official photo shoot with famed photographer Mario Testino."

It ALSO features The Sunglasses of Princess Margaret, all of which seem quite groovy.

## Hampton Court Palace's Chapel

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/02/GettyImages-509207308.jpg)

This is the chapel at Hampton Court Palace and isn't it totally hideous and not at all dramatic and breathtaking? Apparently, on Tuesday, "Cardinal Vincent Nichols, head of the Catholic Church in England, celebrated the Vespers with Anglican Bishop of London Richard Chartres in a symbolic gesture of reconciliation between the two churches." Somewhere in Purgatory, Henry VIII is PISSED.

## King Philippe and Queen Mathilde of Belgium

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/02/GettyImages-509155510.jpg)

And somewhere in in Switzerland -- Verbier, specifically -- the King and Queen of Belgium are skiing.

## Prince Sverre Magnus of Norway and Crown Princess Mette-Marit of Norway

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/02/GettyImages-508932254.jpg)

Ditto Oslo, and Prince Sverre Magnus of Norway and Crown Princess Mette-Marit.

## Crown Princess Mette-Marit

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/02/GettyImages-509330842.jpg)

This feels so glum after her spirited skiing costume.

## Queen Letizia

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2016/02/GettyImages-509333666.jpg)

Leitiza looks good in this color. Here, she's visiting with Spanish Vice President Soraya Saenz de Santamaria, probably talking about crime-fighting and general issues of jurisprudence.

## Crown Princess Victoria

I STRONGLY approve of those earrings, and, also, someone give this woman a seat!

(Hello!) -- The Guardian has a piece on the fashion exhibit you saw in the slideshow: Kaftans, round sunglasses and Dior: how the Royals won fashion -- People has Kate's PSA on behalf of mental health care for kids. -- PippaMiddleton popped out for the British Heart Foundation Ball where she also gave a speech.
