“have you tasted your cake? it’s divine.” ariel walked around with her little plate and cake fork, eating while walking even after an aunt shot her a particularly scathing look. she figured if barbie didn’t mind and she didn’t spill things like a three-year-old, it really shouldn’t matter. “what am i saying, of course you have, you picked it out!” the younger bragança laughed before taking yet another bite. “aunt elisa said that we’re lucky that you didn’t do your wedding in a church because my ceremony dress was ‘too vulgar’,” she drew air-quotes around the word with her fork. “but she laughed after, so she probably didn’t mean it in a mean way.” 

a tinfolk exclusive : here comes (our) sunshine

our favourite cool girl, or should we say, cool princess, is back on the scene! after her highly publicised kidnapping and subsequent release, princess ari of portugal had been in hiding behind a plethora of sharply dressed men in black, leaving us waiting with bated breath; which art gallery opening will be featured in her comeback appearance? turns out we were dead wrong, it seems like after giving a short appearance at her twin brother’s wedding last year, ari decided that yet another family function would be her formal comeback to high society, as it were. her highness showed up and showed out in a couture piece from zuhair murad’s 2018 spring collection, matching glittering gold with her sister’s other high-profile bridesmaids. 

however, many of our readers will despair in the fact that our most eligible cool kid is single no more -- our sources had confirmed that the lucky guy was prince bastiaan van oranje-nassau of the netherlands. unfortunately, other than hailing from erasmus’ home country, he doesn’t scream the progressive intellectual that we were hoping for the hippest princess of our generation. we don’t know yet if he’s pumpkin-spice-latte basic or more of a frat-boy chic, but hell, our editors were quick to lament that someone should rescue our girl before she’s forced to listen to kanye on pain of renting out a bougie tent at coachella. yikes. blink twice if you need saving girl!

the full article will be available on our november 2019 issue.
