I think William and Harry always play in these polo tournaments for charity each year, and I believe it is part of their work responsibilities. I donβt think it would be easy for Harry to get out of it. Also, that polo player with the long thick wavy hair standing next to Harry....swoon. That's Nacho Figueras and he defended Harry when someone called him out on leaving his baby at home. I tried to find the video but couldn't remember where I saw it. www.hellomagazine.com/royalty/2019052473447/prince-harry-friend-nacho-figueras-defends-him-baby-archie/I just donβt understand this criticism of Harry. I am surprised by it and that his friend would have to speak out against it. Itβs the second time Iβve seen it.

I just fell down a Nacho rabbit hole. He and his wife have been together for like 20 years. Which seems impossible because she looks super young. #money Theyβre from Argentina and travel the world doing polo stuff. They actually seem pretty nice and fun. Heβs also been a Ralph Lauren model for a long time. She has a lifestyle blog. I was born under the wrong star... coveteur.com/2018/11/12/inside-delfina-blaquier-closet/

Huh, Iβm surprised he would travel so far for a polo match while the baby is so young. This definitely seems like a just for funsies trip rather than a work event, right? Footnote- my level of surprise is maybe a .5 and Iβm more here hoping we can stop discussing Trump at least until the actual visit I think William and Harry always play in these polo tournaments for charity each year, and I believe it is part of their work responsibilities. I donβt think it would be easy for Harry to get out of it. Also, that polo player with the long thick wavy hair standing next to Harry....swoon. Even if it isnβt a work responsibility, parents are allowed to have hobbies and social lives too, lol. I donβt get all this scrutiny people give new parents tbh. I remember people giving Chrissy Tiegan a hard time when she posted photos of a date night soon after she had Luna. Whatβs wrong with taking the occasional break as long as the baby is in good hands? Itβs not like they donβt have the money to hire the best nannies so both partners can take a break.

Letβs also not forget that babies sleep. A lot. Itβs totally a-ok for either parent to take a day, or two, or whatever they need, to still be an adult and do things that are important to them. Itβs not like they donβt have help and itβs not like the baby is going to do all these incredible things while he is gone.

Both parents don't have to attend every moment of infancy. Rome is what, a two hour flight from London (it's been 10 years since I did it so I can't remember for sure)? He could theoretically have gone there and back in a day.

He could theoretically have gone there and back in a day. Plus itβs a charity event for the charity he co-foundered that raises awareness and funds to help children with HIV in Southern Africa. So heβs there for a pretty good reason

I'm saying yes as well. Even if she's not doing other engagements yet, show up and look pretty is easy, and I imagine it's a fun event.* *Unless like some "fun" events I have to attend, it's really just a bunch of cat herding and in-law politics.

Heβs probably the only professional member of that team - I think the other two (besides Harry) are just rich people who like to play, and then Harry is the royal celebrity 4th. Thatβs typically how these things work - older rich dudes (and occasionally women) put down money to bring together a team for the event so they hang out with professional polo players and rub elbows with the royals at charity matches. There are polo clubs in the country where I live, and thatβs typically how these types of events work.

We're watching the Monaco Grand Prix and watched qualifying yesterday. MH commented on the kids in the luxury booth during qualifying yesterday saying how it must be nice to grow up being able to watch an event like this from a luxury booth.
Thanks to this thread I knew it was Jacques and Gabriella. "Well when your dad is a Prince of Monaco it comes with perks."

Those are all gorgeous separately, but she has on too much. It's like the necklace and the crown are competing. That thing surpasses tiara and is into crown territory.
