On June 20, the Duchess of Gloucester celebrated her 80th birthday. Birgitte, Duchess of Gloucester (born 20 June 1946), is a Danish-born member of the British royal family. She is married to Prince Richard, Duke of Gloucester. To mark the occasion, Buckingham Palace released new photographs of the Duchess of Gloucester.
The new photographs were taken earlier this month in the Yellow Drawing Room and the gardens of Buckingham Palace by Chris Jackson. For the photographs, the Duchess wore a sage green dress by Ulrich Engler, featuring a buttoned bodice, and a pleated flared midi skirt.
A beautiful Duchess!
ردحذفLovely photos - lovely couple - elegant and discrete lady.
حذفIsn't she a true royal lady? Always chic, always elegant. Never being vain or wearing a "look at me!"-outfit.
ردحذفExactly - bright yellow isn't his color.
حذفIndeed. She always looks very elegant. And she doesn’t look 80 at all. Such a beautiful royal lady !!
حذفHappy Birthday to HRH the Duchess! These photos are gorgeous. I don’t think I’ve ever seen the necklace shown in the first photo - wow. The baby bird-egg blue of the belted suit is beautifully cut and fitted and the Duchess looks wonderful in it.
ردحذفNo one in the British royal family wears jewelry like this Duchess. Lord willing, in the far distant (I hope) future, the family will find a way to keep it in the family and won’t have to sell it to pay horrid death taxes, never to be seen again.
Such an elegant lovely lady. The jewels are superb and her adoring husband is so cute.
ردحذفI saw a little video today, the two of them leaving a public appointment together. He, waiting politely until she finishes her last words to a woman, then while he begins to turn away to go, he lifts his arm just a tiny little bit - enough for his wife to slip her arm into his, like they always did, no need for words or a more accentuated offer of his arm. Quite seldom in royal circles, to behave exactly like you behave when you are on your own. Very moving and they are a beautiful couple.
حذفWonderful ! But what is this tiara? I think I have never seen it before
ردحذفYou can always find everything about jewels in the Court Jeweller blog. This is Queen Mary's honeysuckle tiara with pink topaz and diamonds.
حذفA very happy birthday to a lovely lady.
ردحذفShe has the elegance, pose and charming smile! in another life time she would make a good Queen!
ردحذفHappy Birthday Duchess!
She looks absolutely radiant. What a beauty she truly is (and at 80!).
ردحذفUne belle dame qui sait toujours se vêtir avec goût tout en accessoirisant.ses tenues avec de superbes bijoux !
ردحذفHappy 80th to the Duchess, one of the most elegant and classy royals. Cheers to many more turns around the sun!
ردحذفI hope I look that good when I turn 80!
ردحذفIf I get to 80 looking like this, alas minus jewelry, i will be happy and thankful

No kidding! She looks lovely!
حذفI don't really know any other royal lady who can put a tiara on her head without having what royal fans call "tiara hair", or even without having a dedicated hairstyle for an event. Sometimes she has, sometimes she does not - but she always looks impeccable with that tiara on her short hair. Her outfit choices are simple but always impeccable and so tastefully put together. Really, I adore her personality, at least what you can see shine through her appearance. If so beautiful inside like she is outside, then the Duke is truly blessed with her.
ردحذفShe is not the only royal lady who can wear a tiara on short hair.
حذفYes, I recall Princess Diana's short hair looked marvelous with a tiara !
حذفHappy Birthday! She looks younger, about 60
ردحذفPlease do not exaggerate "about 70" and we have a deal !
حذفThese photos are stunning, some of the nicest I have seen in a long time. The pale blue suit looks wonderful, it fits perfectly, very elegant. The last photo with the white dress, what a lovely outfit. Combined with the pearl and emerald stones, this looks marvelous, so elegant. She has wonderful work ethic, especially being her age, which is hard to believe. She gets on with the job, similar to the Princess Royyal flies mostly under the radar, with no fan fare or fuss, nor has she ever looked for it, so inspirational. Happy birthday Ma'am.
ردحذفDame nature s est penchée sur son berceau certainement mais elle a su pendre soin d elle pour être aussi belle naturelle élégante à son âge.
ردحذفComparée à son AR de Hanovre comme on dit chez : y a pas photo.
A very happy 80th birthday to the DoG. Great looking lady for 80 years of age. Lovely dress, she looks stunning in white.

Denmark's beautiful gift to the BRF. From their early days dating at Cambridge, to a few years later working at the Danish Embassy before marrying her love Prince Richard, Birgitte, Duchess of Gloucester has emerged as one of the loveliest members of the BRF. Quietly regal, always elegant, she is respected by many and does great work supporting the monarch. Her sage green suit and cream dress reflect her style perfectly: simple, clean, and slightly but pleasingly retro. Wishing her a happy 80th, and many more birthdays to come.

Thank you! I did not know her first name, I realise. Lovely no-drama lady and always stylish, a bit like Benedikte.
حذفHappy birthday to the beautiful Duchess. She looks much younger than her age and always appears elegant, immaculately attired and moves with quiet sophistication. For so many reasons, she is my favorite British royal.
ردحذفShe is a lovely lady. Her clothing style is beautiful and classic. But I am surprised she dresses like women who look much older than she is . Now I see she is 80 years old herself. Compared to me, I will be 80 next year, but I am dressed much younger than the Duchtess.
ردحذف身につけておる装いがとても素敵なのは言うまでもなく、彼女の姿勢は年齢を感じさせず若々しく、自然な微笑みも素敵です。まさにエレガント。
ردحذف今後もご健康をお祈り申し上げます。
This lady is the epitome of class, she is a wonderful asset to the family, especially her husband who appears to adore her. Her clothing is always on point, fits well always looks polished.
ردحذفAlways so lovely and has lots of style!
