A queen remembers her lost love
A moving photo from today's service to mark the 20th anniversary of the death of King Baudouin of the Belgians. His widow, Fabiola, now in her eighties was wheeled past a large photo of the king showing him as a much younger man. And in that little smile that is starting to show on her lips, there is a glimpse of the memories, of the love and the long life shared in special circumstances. Queens lose their loves as well and while a nation remembered a figurehead, just for a moment a wife remembered a husband.
