It's been described as an important, influential relationship in royal circles but one half is always hidden from view.   In his new book, Valentine Low, Royal Correspondent with The Times, delves into the work of the courtiers and discovers what really keeps the royal machine working.   As 'Courtiers' is published, Royal Central's Sydney Zatz spoke to Valentine Low about this all important royal relationship and the future of the monarchy. And she heard his thoughts on how traditional King Charles will be and how Prince William could be shaping up as a royal 'revolutionary'.   Find out more in our special edition podcast, the first of a new series of interviews around the Coronation and the new reign of King Charles III.

Un Mensaje a la Conciencia
Por ocultar un cigarrillo

Un Mensaje a la Conciencia

(Día Mundial sin Tabaco) Sucedió el 22 de mayo de 1867. Hacía sólo tres años que había fallecido su mamá, por lo que había cultivado una relación más estrecha con su padre, quien la amaba y comprendía su dolor emocional mejor que nadie. Él era un hombre muy generoso que se había ganado el mote de «corazón de ángel». Como quería lo mejor para ella, a pesar de lo mucho que le gustaba complacerla, le había prohibido fumar. Pero ella, con la típica atracción que tiene lo prohibido en una joven de dieciocho años, fumaba de todos modos, a escondidas del padre para darse ese gusto sin contrariarlo. Ese día ella planeaba ir al teatro, así que se vistió de gala, con un vestido de seda digno de la ocasión. Para darle más volumen y mantenerlo ahuecado, se había rociado con una solución que contenía glicerina. Antes de partir, la joven, parada junto a una ventana, decidió fumar un cigarrillo mientras conversaba con su primo. En eso estaba ¡cuando apareció el padre de improviso! Para ocultar el cigarrillo, lo único que se le ocurrió fue esconderlo súbitamente detrás de la espalda. Pero con eso el vestido, ahora altamente inflamable debido a la glicerina, comenzó a arder, y el fuego se extendió con tanta rapidez que, cuando trataron de apagarlo, ya estaba ella envuelta en llamas. Por fin lograron apagarlas, pero sólo después de que le produjeron quemaduras de segundo y tercer grado en la espalda, los brazos, el cuello y las extremidades inferiores. Los miembros de su familia, que tuvieron la desgracia de presenciarlo todo, quedaron turbados y perplejos. No se explicaban cómo pudo suceder tal cosa... sino hasta que, pasados unos minutos, el primo reveló que ella había estado fumando. La joven recibió el tratamiento que había en aquel entonces para las quemaduras, pero sucumbió ante la gravedad de las heridas el 6 de junio, quince días después de la tragedia. Todo esto ocurrió en el Palacio Hetzendorf, la residencia de la emperatriz en Viena, Austria, en la que el padre de la joven —el archiduque Alberto de Austria-Teschen— estaba pasando la temporada de invierno con su familia debido a su estrecha relación con la familia imperial. Fue en ese palacio donde el fuego, producto del cigarrillo, extinguió la tierna vida de su hija, la archiduquesa Matilde de Austria-Teschen, destinada a ser la esposa del príncipe Humberto I de Saboya, que llegó a ser el rey Humberto I de Italia, por lo que ella habría sido la futura reina de Italia.1 La lección no pudiera ser más clara: Cada vez que estemos tentados a desobedecer las normas que nuestro Padre y Archiduque celestial ha dispuesto para nuestro bien, no nos arriesguemos a que el pecado nos queme y nos consuma. En vez de tratar en vano de ocultarlo, confesémoselo a Dios. Pues así recibiremos su perdón y no sólo vida que vale la pena vivir en este mundo, sino también la esperanza de vida eterna allá en el cielo, donde nos ha preparado nuestro propio palacio, como miembros de la Sagrada Familia.2 Carlos ReyUn Mensaje a la Concienciawww.conciencia.net 1 Moniek Bloks, «Archduchess Mathilde of Austria & the secret cigarette» [La archiduquesa Matilde de Austria y el cigarrillo secreto], History of Royal Women [Historia de mujeres de la realeza], 6 diciembre 2014 En línea 4 diciembre 2021; Oskar Aanmoen, «The cigarette tragedy that killed an 18-year-old Austrian Archduchess» [La tragedia del cigarrillo que mató a la archiduquesa austriaca de 18 años], Royal Central, 3 julio 2020 En línea 4 diciembre 2021; Wikipedia, s.v. «Matilde de Austria-Teschen» En línea 4 diciembre 2021; y Manuel J.

10 years ago, Charlene Whitstock's life transformed forever when she went from being a professional swimmer in South Africa, to the Princess of Monaco after marrying Prince Albert II, but at no point was her story a fairytale. From rumours of her husband's many affairs and children born to other women, to reports that she had her passport confiscated and was essentially forced down the aisle, Princess Charlene has never been able to escape gossip about her marriage. The Quicky speaks to a Royal expert to find out the truth about who Princess Charlene really is, and whether she really needs help to escape the clutches of Monaco's Royal Family, or just some privacy from endless public speculation.
