Royal

Prince Pierre Casiraghi and Beatrice Borromeo have registered for their wedding gifts. The son of Caroline, Princess of Hanover, is due to wed the Italian beauty later this week and a list of their ideal presents has been revealed. According to Oggi ...

Britain's Prince George will celebrate his birthday tomorrow (22.07.15) with a low-key party.
The 23-month-old son of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge will be amongst his close family and friends present, including two-month-old sister Princess Charlotte, as he turns two at Anmer Hall on the Sandringham Estate in Norfolk.
Grandparents Michael and Carole Middleton are expected to attend the bash, which was organised by Kate, and they are also said to be providing the cake, the Daily Mail newspaper reports.
However, Prince William's father Prince Charles will unlikely to be attending with the Duchess of Cornwall as the royal couple are currently on a tour of the West Country.
Meanwhile, the Royal Mint have released a coin to commemorate the Prince's second birthday.
The sterling silver £5 coin will feature a contemporary image of the St George and the dragon legend.
Shane Bissett, director of commemorative coin and bullion at the Royal Mint said: "The choice of the St George design to honour Prince George's birthday is an apt one - the name George has long had links with the British monarchy and its coinage, there having been six kings of that name during the Royal Mint's 1,000 year history.
"The choice of a silver £5 coin is significant too as the tradition of crossing the palm of a new born baby with silver is a way to wish them wealth and good health throughout their life."

Britain's Queen Elizabeth II veered on the grass to avoid a young family.
The 89-year-old royal was driving down Long Walk on the Windsor Great Park estate when she drove the Jaguar X-type car onto the grass to miss Scarlett Vincent, Toby Core and their 11-month-old son, who were walking on the path.
Scarlett told the Daily Mail newspaper: "We did not realise she was staying at Windsor Castle that weekend so were so surprised when it happened. We didn't actually have time to get out of the way as we were in a world of our own so she had to swerve around us.
"Toby was pushing the trike and I was pushing Teddy's pram when I realised what had happened. I turned to him and just said, 'Oh my God, it's the Queen'. He was as shocked and surprised as I was. I pointed at the car and she just smiled at us and waved."
And the Queen - who is the only person that is allowed to drive down that road except from park rangers - is known as a keen motorist, regularly being spotted behind the wheel.
She also has a history in the motoring industry, having worked as a driver and mechanic in the Women's Auxillary Territorial Service during World War II.

Britain's Duchess of Cambridge gets sent marshmallows by her brother.
James Middleton, who co-founded the marshmallow printing company Boomf, has quipped that he sends his sister Kate and the royals the unique gifts.
When asked if he's ever given any of his edible treats to the royal family, he shared: "That is a state secret. To be honest, they've heard me talk about them so much, that I need to give them something different now."
The 28-year-old entrepreneur also revealed the business is "growing fast" and says he regularly borrows things from his parents, Carole and Michael Middleton's business as they're based just next door.
He said: "I've been working startup hours, evening and weekends since we started. We've quadrupled our turnover this year."
"Growing that fast takes a huge amount of effort. Our factory is next door to my parents' business, so occasionally we pop over to borrow sellotape - but apart from that it's totally independent."
And James' company have started recruiting bright young minds for internships.
He told the Daily Express newspaper: "Boomf is all about communicating via marshmallows. There are no established experts in that field, so we are keen to reach out and find new talent who bring fresh perspectives.
"So many of our best team members have joined us straight out of school or university."

Prince Pierre Casiraghi and Beatrice Borromeo are planning an "informal" wedding.
The son of Caroline, Princess of Hanover and the daughter of Countess Donna Paola Marzotto are set to tie the knot later this week and his uncle Prince Albert of Monaco has revealed the pair are taking a relaxed approach to the nuptials, despite the rumoured guest list of 700 people.
He shared: "The wedding service will be in the palace's salons, then a garden party - because Pierre and Beatrice want it that way.
"It's going to be a summer garden party. A finger-foods-for-lunch thing, with buffet tables and drinks. There'll be places for guests to sit, but it's going to be mostly informal."
The pair are set to have a civil ceremony next Saturday (25.07.15) before jetting off to Italy for a religious wedding on the Borromean Islands.
Revealing more details about the big day, Prince Albert told PEOPLE magazine: "There'll be some local folklore dancers and music. And, we'll play some pétanque. It's a light fete and I will give a toast.
"I'll try and keep it short and not bore everybody, have them feel I ran on and on, which will be hard because I really like both Pierre and Beatrice."

Britain's Prince William completed four rescue missions in his first week with the East Anglian Air Ambulance.
The 33-year-old royal began his work with the emergency services last Monday (13.07.15) and he made four potentially life-saving trips during the seven days; firstly to Garboldisham in Norfolk and then Felixstowe in Suffolk, where he rescued a man suffering a heart attack. Later in the week, he attended an incident in Colchester, Essex, whilst another mission saw him head to Wisbech, Cambridgeshire.
Once flying a man to Norfolk and Norwich University Hospital, he was waved off by a crowd of nurses.
Onlooker Nina Allen said: "I saw the air ambulance come down and I thought I would have a look to see what was happening. When I initially went over, I did not think about Prince William being there.
"People then realised it was the Prince and started to get really excited. I zoomed in with my camera and got some nice pictures of him. He did not look our way, but he is doing his job and can't be spending all his time waving at onlookers."
Meanwhile, the Duke of Cambridge - who has 23-month-old son Prince George and two-month-old daughter Princess Charlotte with his wife, the Duchess of Cambridge - previously admitted he was "feeling the nerves".
He said: "It's sort of a follow-on from where I was in the military with my search and rescue role.
"There are many of the same kind of skills and a job like this is very worthwhile, valuable and there's an element of duty."

The British royal family have reportedly ended their feud with Diana, Princess of Wales' brother.
The Earl Spencer has been estranged from the rest of the family following an unexpected comment made in the late royal's eulogy at her funeral, where he said he would protect his "blood family", Princes William and Harry.
An insider said: "The plan is there will be a family birthday or gathering with the Queen and Duke present, and Spencer will be invited.
"Palace aides are working on a rapprochement. William and Harry kept their distance on their father's guidance - Charles and the Queen were furious that Spencer said he would guide the boys.
"In their opinion, he didn't and none of what he vowed at the funeral actually happened."
And the idea for the family to set aside their differences is believed to have come from Diana's son, the Duke of Cambridge, who has two-month-old daughter Princess Charlotte and 23-month-old son Prince George with his wife, the Duchess of Cambridge.
The insider added to the Daily Mail newspaper: "Spencer got put in the deep freeze but now they are ready to let him out.
"Things have changed, William's grown up. He made it clear how much he misses his mother by making one of Charlotte's middle names Diana.
"He feels so deeply about his mother's memory he can't leave her brother out. He also wants the family to make up before it's too late - while the Queen is still alive."

Britain's Queen Elizabeth II is to lead events to mark VJ Day.
The 89-year-old royal is set to attend a service at St Martin-in-the-Fields Church on August 15 to remember those members of the armed forces who made sacrifices in the Second World War to defeat Japan.
The Queen will also be joined at the service by her husband Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, as well as veterans and former prisoners of war.
Britain's Defence Secretary Michael Fallon said: "It is important that we take this opportunity to pay tribute to the courage and fortitude of all those whose actions led to the final victory of Allied forces in the Second World War.
"This major anniversary is a time to recognise the sacrifices made by those who lost their lives, the veterans who fought, and the prisoners of war and civilian internees who suffered for their country."
Later in the day, the Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall will attend an event at Horse Guards Parade, which will include a historic aircraft fly-past - featuring a Spitfire, Dakota, Hurricane and a Royal Navy Swordfish plane as well as a modern RAF Typhoon fighter jet - and a ceremony to mark the laying of the wreath as well as readings and hymns.

Britain's Prince Harry has been told his conservation work "will not change anything".
The 30-year-old royal is currently taking part in a conservation project in Namibia aiming to make black rhinos less attractive to poachers so they won't kill them for their ivory, although a critic claims his efforts will have no impact if there continues to be a demand for the goods the poachers are selling.
Wonder Gochu, the news editor at The Namibian newspaper told US news website The Daily Beast: "This boy's visit here will not change anything. People still go hungry, people who have no jobs will still have no jobs when he goes back. They will not even give a second thought about him being here or not being here."
Instead, the journalist urged the prince to visit China where there is a strong demand for ivory, despite Harry's older brother Prince William visiting the country in March to discuss the illegal wildlife trade with president Xi Jinping.
Questioned on whether he thought the prince's work would have a positive impact, he replied: "No, as long as there is a market for what the poachers are selling, Prince Harry could spend 10 or 20 years in the country and that would not make any difference. He should go to China, and campaign there, say, 'Please don't buy it'."
