Liliane Princess De Rethy

Before the storm broke...I read it was after Boudain married that relationships began to break down.

And of course a hi-res image of the beautiful brooch she s using in that one



 

This clip chestnut, set with diamonds and sapphires, was released in 1952 by Van Cleef & Arpels. Comes with a wrist band and patterns of hearing, the princess wore all at the christening of Princess Maria-Esmeralda, or more commonly, fixing the brooch on the lapel of a jacket.

Lilian did not look very awake in this picture, probably surprised by the camera...

Just woke up after a boring reception ?

She looked a bit like Queen Anne of Romania here in hairstyle & smile.

Liliane and Badouin

A bit like Camilla Parker Bowles.  She was not a nice stepmother, similar to Raine Spencer.

At first, relations between children of Leopold and Astrid and Princess Lilian were good. The princess appeared devoted to them. In fact, relations began to deteriorate when Leopold III was removed from the throne in favor of Baudouin in 1951.

It was not the children's fault, but Liliane turned nasty and remove things and start selling family jewellry. Queen Fabiola cannot stand her stepmother-in-law.

Yes, the bitterness felt by Leopold and Lilian prevailed on family ties.
