Princess Mirabelle Elodie "
Belle" (21)
DD:
Princess Arianne Celine Arlette Marie (3)
DD:
Princess Rosalie Jacqueline Alba Charlotte (nb)
Gabriel and
Belle were excited to learn they were going to have another baby, and while the kingdom was hoping for the arrival of a Crown
Prince, the royal family would not wish to change little
Rosalie for anything.
Arianne is quite excited to have a little sister and loves helping her parents and the nurses take care of her. They named her
Rosalie for her rosy cheeks,
Jaqueline after
Belle's father;s middle name,
Jacques, and
Charlotte for
Gabriel's late father
Charles.
Alba is from the name of a little servant girl they both grew very fond of while visiting the court in
Florence.
Arianne started calling her
Rosie, and now nearly everyone in the family does.
For the past few years,
Gabriel and
Belle have been worried about after effects of the spell
Gabriel was under for so long, but with four years and nothing untoward happening, they are finally beginning to really relax. In the meantime,
Belle's brother
Alban has returned, and is thoroughly enchanted with his nieces. He left again soon after
Rosalie's birth, and the family are all missing him.
Jeanette and her husband
Duke Adoplphe have had two children, a daughter and a son, and
Danielle and her husband Count
Raymond have had a son.
Etienne and
Guillaume have also married, and
Etienne and his wife Lady
Fleur are expecting their first child.
Emma has also recently married, a lord of the court named
Fabien.
Victorine and
Blanche,
Belle's other sisters, are still unmarried and still have not sought a reconciliation with their sister or attempted to see their nieces, though
Maurice has gone to visit them both.
Henri and
Leon,
Belle's other two brothers, are still unmarried as well, though
Henri has recently become enaged to a landholder's daughter named
Laure.
