That seems to be pandering to another agenda in itself and it's worth remembering that the Duke of Brabant is, himself, an academic and has benefited from their expertise - as our author rightly pointed out, he's a Stamford graduate.<br /><br />It is pleasing to see that the Belgian royal family is reacting to these stories in a restrained but firm manner. <br /><br />I've posted an article on my own blog, linking to this.

I know little about the Belgian royal family compared to your knowledge, Matterhorn, but I have seen so many books repeating the same kind of lurid tales about other royalties of the past and if they are written by 'professors' or academics they are assumed to be accurate. One cannot forget who appoints these 'academics' and their dubious agenda. I can only think that some people must have very dark minds to want to write a book or even an article devoted to destroying someone else...particularly when there are no grounds to do so. Why don't they write about someone they admire, instead, or else just be quiet?
