This actually WAS a rather quiet week for the Royals, which I’m sure is a relief to them all. Unless you’re in Monaco, however, where they are currently holding their annual Circus, which seems like it’s a very lengthy undertaking.

Kate, however, had some stuff to do: She had an engagement on Tuesday, AND one on Wednesday.

This is sweet; I do wonder if Eugenie is going to be asked to do more engagements, now?

I ran this through Google Translate and it has something to do with doctors, and the Olympics? Neat trick, anyway!
