\n

The Belgian palace have released a statement after rumours about a possible romance between Princess Elisabeth<\/a> and Prince Georg of Liechtenstein. A photo circulating social media began the rumour<\/a>, but both palaces are yet to confirm whether the image is real or if there is indeed a relationship between the two royals.<\/p>\n

When asked about the picture, a spokesperson for the Belgian Royal Palace in Brussels told reporters: “We saw the photo too. We don’t know if it’s real or AI. We aren’t commenting [on private matters].”<\/p>\n

If the romance is real then it would mark the first romance in nearly half a century since King Juan Carlos I and Queen Sof\u00eda of Spain married in 1962.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Belgian royal journalist, Wim Dehandschutter, tells HELLO!<\/a> that the royal pairing would naturally make sense.<\/p>\n

They said: “Elisabeth and Georg, it would certainly be a wonderful royal match. Royal families are close in general, and Belgians and Liechtensteiners know each other well; there are branches.<\/p>\n

“Their parents are colleagues, friends, in some way family. Elisabeth and Georg are believed to have known each other since childhood.”<\/p>\n

On the authenticity of the picture shared on social media, they added: “King Philippe and certainly Queen Mathilde guard their privacy like lions, and even more so that of their children. And the Liechtensteiners are also legendary secretive.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“They’re an unknown but prestigious royal family and one of the wealthiest. Why would Elisabeth and Georg have any interest in leaking their relationship? And then in such a clumsy way, via a private photo that’s never completely private on Instagram<\/a>?”<\/p>\n

Born in October 2001, Princess Elisabeth is the eldest child of King Philippe and Queen Mathilde and is the heir apparent to the Belgian throne.<\/p>\n

Prince Georg – born in April 1999 – is the third child of Hereditary Prince Alois and Hereditary Princess Sophie and is third in line to the throne.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
