All Grown Up and In Love: HRH Princess Alana Steps Back in Alexandra

It's been a while since we've seen HRH Princess Alana on our shores since she moved to Stralia to continue her studies. That all changed today when paparazzi captured HRH with her now long-time beau, HRH Crown Prince Keona of Healani.

The two young royals have dated for years now, but this is The Crown Prince's first visit to Alexandra, making many wonder if he's here to meet Their Majesties, aka his girlfriend's parents.

The rest of The Family is set to start winter vacation at Toulouse Castle in the Fretian countryside and we hope HRH Crown Prince Keona is joining!

Princess Alana of Alexandra Engaged!

The Alexandran Royal Press Corps. began the new year with big news, announcing HRH Princess Alana's engagement to her longtime boyfriend, HRH Crown Prince Keona of Healani.

After paparazzi spotted the two lovebirds in downtown Union City, many wondered if this was a sign that the Crown Prince was spending the winter holiday with the Royal Family, which looks to be true.

The Kingdom of Healani has not yet shared the news, but we are sure the family is excited, as sources close to the Alexandran Royal Family shared with TRsi.

"Prince Keona totally planned this out! Everyone in the global community knows how traditional and old school His Majesty King Daniel is, so we're confident HM knew something was up with Prince Keona visiting for a holiday. We know he asked His Majesty alone, and we know that the Queen helped pick a ring since it could not come from the Royal Vault."

We are excited to see the King's youngest getting married, no matter the details. However, we cannot help but wonder when her brother and our future King will settle down and tie the knot.

Congrats, Princess Alana!

St. Paul Palace Shares SimDonian State Dinner Portraits

The Royal Press Corp shared photos from the SimDonian State Dinner, where HRH Prince Paul was the official host of Her Royal Highness, The Crown Princess Diana of SimDonia, and her fiancé, The Honorable Jonkheer De Geloes.

After two days of touring the kingdom and accompanying HRH on official duties, the three-day state visit ended with a formal dinner in St. Paul Palace's Small Gallery. All senior members of The Family were in attendance, allowing us a glimpse at the ribbon for the new Order of King Daniel, which is The Duchess of Landom's first Royal Order. We're sure to learn more about it soon.

HRH Prince Paul really stepped up, delivering his first speech as an official host on behalf of The King. HRH's speech had the usual bells and whistles: promises of growing economic and diplomatic ties and thanking HRH and The Jonkheer for spending time in Alexandra. Royal Press Corp members present say Their Majesties looked less like King and Queen and more like proud parents. The same as said about The Princess Royal and Duke and Duchess of Landom who were also there, one Royal Press Corp member went on record,

Everyone looked at HRH proudly, and I know being surrounded by his parents and aunts and uncles helped deliver his first of many speeches--I loved it. I've watched him grow up, and I'm proud, so I know they were.

We here at TRSi are excited our future King did well and can't wait to see what's next for the Prince, who will start his Naval career soon. Your TRSi fashion correspondent will have special coverage of the jewels worn this evening.

HRH Crown Princess Diana of SimDonia and the Jonkheer Arrive at St. Paul Palace, Meeting with The King and Queen

After a rainy arrival and a change of clothes, our SimDonian visitors have arrived at St. Paul Palace in Old Santa Maria to meet their Majesties, King Daniel, and Queen Shalom. Escorted by HRH Prince Paul, Princess Diana, and The Jonkheer were received in the palace's Legacy Room.

Following a palace tour, the group headed to Their Majesties' favorite room, the Audubon Sitting Room, where they had tea and discussed the rest of the visit, according to palace sources. The Royal Press Corps was allowed to photograph the intimate moments and shared a few photos with TRSi.

We've included them for your viewing pleasure. Up next, the Crown Princess and Jonkheer will accompany Prince Paul to a scholarship luncheon.

Francesim Embassy Opens in Old Freret; His Imperial Highness Prince Henri Named New Ambassador

Early this morning, His Majesty King Daniel joined His Imperial Highness Prince Henri of Francesim to open the new Francesim embassy.

Located in Old Freret, the embassy was once the home to a Freretian royal and has been unused. Francesim and Alexandra was agreed upon 100 year lease on the property at the rate of §10,000 per year. The long lease and low rate are a sign of good faith in the diplomatic alliance and cultural ties tethering Alexandra and Francesim.

His Majesty, The King, and His Imperial Highness were joined by two powerhouses in their own right, Her Excellency Giselle Huger, 1st Baroness Bond, and Mrs. Juliette Schoen. The Baroness Bond is the first ambassador to Francesim and was created a Baroness in a private ceremony. HIH and other members of the royal court were in attendance. Mrs. Schoen, an academic by trade, was appointed the first Executive Director of the Alexandra-Francesim Culture center, set to be built in the coming years.

As the first guests, His Majesty and His Imperial Highness signed the new guestbook, which will rest in the entrance hall, near a statue of Louis XV. Photographers captured several pictures for you to see below! If you keep reading, there might even be a bonus photo!

Their Royal Highnesses Prince Paul and Crown Princess Diana Host Scholarship Recipients at Palace

For the next installment of the Alexandran-SimDonian state visit, the trio hosted 12 of the kingdom's brightest young minds for a scholarship luncheon sponsored by HRH Prince Paul, the future Crown Prince of Alexandra.

HRH also displays his new standard after presenting each student with a full scholarship to the University of their choice. After his naval announcement, it can only indicate we are even closer to his investiture than before. HRH was joined by HRH Crown Princess Diana and her fiancé, The Honorable Jonkheer De Geloes.

In his speech, HRH thanked his SimDonian visitors. They briefly shared with the audience their support of transformational and accessible education to students around the world.

Following a brief reception, the royal trio chatted with the scholars and scholarship director, Celeste Ohtunaso, a long-time advocate for universal education in Alexandra.

While this morning's reception called for suits and ties, we're excited for the recently announced state dinner, where we're sure to see jewels and sashes galore!

HRH Crown Princess Diana and the Honorable Jonkheer De Geloes Arrive in Alexandra for Day 1 of State Visit

While the inclement weather called for last-minute logistical changes, the Royal Press Corps managed to capture every moment of the SimDonian arrival at du Artist Regional Airport, named after the first Elected Minister of what was then the Union of Five Kingdoms.

Brandt Crandall, HRH's Private Secretary, accompanied Prince Paul, in addition to a few umbrella-holding aides. The state visit is HRH's first engagement since announcing his enlisting in the Royal Naval and enrollment at King's College in Union City.

Poor weather aside, HRH committed to joining The Crown Princess in the rain and, against advising, met Her Royal Highness and her fiance, Jonkheer De Geloes.

Up next, the trio will head to St. Paul Palace for a brief reception with Their Majesties.
