      I don’t know what it is - a weird light/angle of photo, got caught in the rain, sweat - but if it had been me, I’d be mortified - and hate for anyone to point it out and say I was only meeting a low standard! She’s just a human afterall!

    Princess Caroline has such fine features but her stringy, unkempt hair is beyond me, and I do not mean her decision to go natural.

      Looks fine to me. She normally has it nicely neatly styled with too much fuss. Being in the tropics changes most of our hair temporarily.
