To My Readers:
I have turned off commenting on this blog for now, due to some disrespectful and inappropriate comments towards articles on the blog and myself personally that I have not. Notes:
- If you notice an error on the blog…send me an email letting me know EXACTLY where the mistake is (a link to the article, and the line where the mistake is in the article) and what the correction is. If it’s a mistake in time frame of an event or something like that…send me a legitimate source (Wikipedia is not a legitimate source, folks, neither are tabloids.) that states otherwise.
- Keep in mind-I have a blogspot, and a Tumblr for The Royal Fanzine. Links are helpful if there is a problem or error. Not to mention common courtesy.
- If you don’t care for an article….simple, easy concept: DON’T READ IT. There’s no need to post WHo cArEs to an article anonymously. That just reflects badly on you, even anonymously, especially with type-face like that. Really? Are you in elementary school? Come on. Grow up.
- If you are a daily digest subscriber and suddenly stop receiving the emails….try visiting the blog page here. I recently had that happen to me with another royal blog, and visited the blog one day on a whim…and the emails started coming again that same night. It’s a glitch in the blog-system, and has nothing to do with me.
As always-
- If you have an idea for an article, email me.
- If you have a suggestion for the blog email me.
- If you want to write your own article email me.
- If you notice a mistake on the blog somewhere, email me.
(seeing the pattern here?)
Happy New Year and I hope you all had a great holiday season.
Thanks!

In 2017, both King Harald and Queen Sonja will turn 80. Their birthdays will be celebrated together on May 10th, in addition to several private and public celebrations.
On a private front, Crown Princess Mette-Marit’s son Marius Borg Høiby will turn 20 and move to the United States, while Princess Ingrid Alexandra will officially become a teenager on January 21st.
25 December 2016: The Duke of Edinburgh, The Prince of Wales, The Duchess of Cornwall, The Duke of York, The Earl of Wessex, The Countess of Wessex, The Princess Royal, Sir Vice Admiral Timothy Laurence, Prince Harry of Wales, Princess Beatrice of York, Princess Eugenie of York, The Lady Louise Mountbatten-Windsor, James, Viscount Sevrn, Peter Mark Andrew Philips, Autumn Patricia Kelly Philips, Zara Anne Elizabeth Philips Tindall, Mike James Tindall, Savannah Anne Kathleen Philips & Isla Elizabeth Philips attended the Traditional Christmas Morning Church Service
Queen Elizabeth II stayed behind due to illness. Left with her was Mia Grace Tindall, who was too young to attend. Mia will be three years old on 17 January 2017. This marks Savannah’s first appearance at the event, at the age of a few days shy of her 6th birthday. Isla Philips, who is four years old, also made her debut at the event. Lady Louise didn’t start attending until she was 8 years old, and James, Viscount Sevrn began attending when he was 8 years old making his debut last year.
