If any member of the UK Royal Family or their staff reads this forum please be advised that the thoughts and/or prayers of every member of the Alexander Palace Forum are with Earl & Countess of Wessex at this difficult time.  

I (and I am sure my fellow AP Forum members are with) wish a speedy and successful recovery to Princess Louise, The Lady Louise Windsor.

I think "lindelle" is a late on responding to posts -- not realizing that the posts to which she responded to - are quite old. ..

Here are some photos of the royal family at the Royal Windsor Horse Show, including some very nice photos of the rarely seen Wessex children.

Wow, casual family portraits of the Wessexs...this never happens, but I'm sure glad it did! What a beautiful family. Little Louise looks so much like Edward and HM and little James seems to be a mixture of both parents. What a treat this is!!!

Yes, it's very obvious, isn't it?  Louise is a real Windsor!

Lady Louise is a spitting image of her father though her face is somewhat "milder" and moe feminine,of course

Congratulations, Princess Sophie! That honor is well deserved. She must be incredibly proud as is her husband I would presume.

Prince Edward and Sophie visited Kandahar Air Base in Afghanistan Dec. 20, 2011. Prince Edward visited the 62nd Expeditionary Reconnaissance Squadron to learn more about the mission of the squadron and to visit with the RAF members embedded with the unit.
