you mean no porn star? bummer.... and I thought that made some juicy gossip. oh well, the website were I found most of these brides is in italian and doesn't translate so well. my computer automatically translates but usually the english is so bad, it doesn't make much sense.

I still can't post any pics. hopefully webmistress can figure something out. apparently I have bogged down the system. 

There is some juicy stuff about the Italian monarchy though from what I read.  I guess they were exiled from Italy and this prince was born in Geneva.  So there is some juicy stuff, but not porn related LOL

And poo on not being able to post pics   Are we allowed to link to them to see?

some possible good news. I sent an email to webmistress and she said she might have to make the file bigger or delete  some photos to make more room. hopefully, she didn't mean from this thread. anyway, i found some new cartiers, boucherons and chaumets

this is Serena Stanhope, she married Princess Margaret's son Viscount Linley.

[saqsay1]

now Viscount Linley, sold the poltimore tiara for $1,700,000.00 to a japanese collector to pay his mother's death taxes. he is a cabinet maker by trade, so......... he made his wife this beechwood tiara instead. do you think this is romantic? or do you think he is just a cheapskate?

thank you Web Mistress for letting me resume this thread!!

this is the Alexandrine diamond drop tiara. also called the tear drop tiara or tiara of tears .

'Alexandra’s tiara is a Danish heirloom – it’s the Alexandrine Diamond Drop Tiara.  The delicate art nouveau piece features tiny teardrop-shaped diamonds hanging en tremblant from arches.  It was made in the early 1900s for Queen Alexandrine of Denmark, who passed the sparkler on to her son, King Frederik IX, after her death.  It was the first tiara worn by Queen Margrethe, who received it as a birthday gift when she turned 18; Margrethe then gave the tiara to her daughter-in-law as a wedding present.'

here's a close up

'Hong Kong-born British citizen Alexandra Manley met Prince Joachim of Denmark when he worked for a Danish shipping company in Hong Kong. With both European and Chinese grandparents, she became the first mixed-race European princess when they married a year later in 1995. Together, they had two sons before they divorced in 2005. Alexandra had become extremely popular in Denmark thanks to her lovely personality and expansive charitable works, so her former mother-in-law, Queen Margrethe II, gave Alexandra her own title, Her Highness The Countess of Frederiksborg. Since this is a personal title, Alexandra was able to keep it when she married Martin Jørgensen in 2007, although she was downgraded from “highness” to “excellency.” '

remember this lady of the massive sapphire tiara? this is Gloria Von Thurn und taxis.

[saqsay1]

Gloria, Princess of Thurn and Taxis (born Countess Mariae Gloria Ferdinanda Gerda Charlotte Teutonia Franziska Magarethe Frederike Simone Johanna Joachima Josefine Wilhelmine Huberta of Schönburg in Glauchau and Waldenburg) is a princess, by marriage, of the German Thurn und Taxis House.

now how is that for a name?
bare with me here....

[saqsay1]

gloria was born on 23rd of february 1960. Although she was a countess, her family was impoverished, and she had worked as a waitress before marrying Prince Johannes von Thurn und Taxis, who was born in 1926 (who was also rumoured to be light in the loafers if you know what I mean, which may be why she looks so unhappy on her wedding day)

this is gloria on her wedding day she is wearing Princess Eugenie's pearl tiara.........


the second picture is of her wearing the same tiara at a costume party dressed like Marie Antoinette. note in this second pic that 1/2 side of the necklace is diamonds, and the other pearls...........

[saqsay1]

Known as the "punk princess" and "Princess TNT", Gloria was an icon in the 1980s. She was known for her exuberant and lavish spending and whirlwind social life. However, on Johannes's death, the spending came to a halt as massive taxes were due on the estate he left behind.

She had her Thurn at having fun. Then came the Taxes...

[saqsay1]

She would wear fabulous tiaras and jewels with punk, spiked, painted hair. Their young son inherited a huge fortune, but his father must have had a lot of debts (I guess the wealth was all tied up in industry, etc.) So Gloria rolled up her sleeves and sold off some of the family heirlooms.
