There is a 13 year age difference between them. Today is Phillipe's 45th birthday which actually surprised me because I thought he was older than that. Philipe and Mathilde dress nicely, smile and seem pleasant. They just aren't very glamourous. Try as they might, they both seem sort of 'meh' to me.

I guess this is an unpopular opinion on this board, but I like Mathilde. I think she's beautiful, and while she and Philippe aren't the most exciting of couples, they seem very happy together. In pictures and videos, they're always talking or holding hands or touching or have their arms around each other. In speeches Philippe has often mentioned how much he loves his wife (or something romantic); despite their age difference, they seem to fit together very well as a couple, arranged marriage or not.

Marie can be used for females and males. But generally, it's a part of the name for a man: Jean-Marie for example. In my family, both women and men have Marie as a part of their names (my grandma is very devoted to the Holy Virgin), so it goes like Bernard Marie (my Dad), and I was close to be named Marie-Elissa (happily not, after all.)

I always forget how young she is. She's younger than Princess Mary I think but she looks like she could be her aunt.

I like her. I like how she behaves like a respectable royal princess minus the serious scandals that the current crown princesses come from.
