In February 2021 I discussed several Dutch royal topics with my colleague Anika Helm of the wonderful German royalty-blog Adelswelt.

Another Covid-19 year has passed. While 2021 wasn’t as desastrous as 2020, it still wasn’t normal.

There were however several births, christenings, engagements and weddings, and unfortunately also a few deaths. Most sensational things that happened in the past year must surely have been the exit of the Duke and Duchess of […]
Last night something I have prepared for for months has finally happened. My great host Rudy moved the blog to my first URL nettyroyal.nl. The people who usually only visited my blog will hardly notice. The old blog URL is still working and from there you will be directed to the new site without even […]
