Let’s round some stuff up!
In case you missed it, we had some bits and pieces from the royals earlier this week: Wills and Kate and Harry went out to the London marathon, with charming results; and this morning, I published an enormous Wills and Kate retrospective pinned to the fact that their sixth anniversary is tomorrow.
Elsewhere around the internet for your reading pleasure:
– Graydon Carter himself wrote a big fat piece about the Earl of Snowdon, who recently died, for Vanity Fair. It’s a lovely piece, and the photos attached are — as you can imagine — really worth your time.
– Daily Break brings a quiz wondering how much you remember about the aforesaid royal wedding and I must admit that I missed one question. THE SHAME.
– Princess Charlene chatted with People — of course! — about her twins, and a recent trip to South Africa (her home).
– Infanta Sofia of Spain, aka the second-born of Felipe and Letizia, turns 10 today. A Spanish site called mujerhoy has a short slideshow, as did Getty.
– This is v. interesting: Ian Coulson on Restoring The First State Bed of King Henry VII and Elizabeth of York
– Vogue has a good fashion round-up of Crown Princess Victoria’s recent trip to Japan.
And, finally, our social media round-up:

It makes me laugh that Maxima’s bouquet here literally matches her dress:
Fergie is really back in with the Yorks (I mean, she is their mother, obviously; I just mean she has done more events than usual with the girls this week):
I must admit, I love Bea’s dress there, whatever it is. Are those birds? It’s neat.
