I voted for Philippe and Mathilde, because I love this couple more than any other couple. I think it's great that they were able to keep their relationship a secret almost right up till the day they revealed they were getting married. I also think they are very romantic the way they always hold hands whether they're on an official duty at the royal palace, somewhere in Belgium, or abroad. They also sometimes hold hands behind their backs when they're being photographed, or while they're sitting down for example attending an exhibition like they did recently with the exhibition for Queen Astrid. I also like the looks they give each other. You can easily tell that they're soo much in love with each other. That's very romantic too. What's also romantic is how Philippe never hides how he feels about Mathilde. He often says in interviews what a wonderful wife and mother she is, and that he's so lucky to have her. In an interview last year he said: "I love my wife, who's a wonderful wife, and mother of my two children". The year before he even spoke directly to Mathilde when he held a speech at a gala dinner with 400 people on an economic mission to Poland. He said something like: "Mathilde, when I was last in Poland in 1998 you had already conquered a place in my heart. Since our marriage four year ago day by day you bring me happiness and support. You're my honest, sincere, and faithful friend, a wonderful wife and a great mother of our two children. Thank you Mathilde. I also have to thank Poland, because Mathilde is half Polish". I also think they support each other very well, and that one of them doesn't outshines the other. To me they do a great job, and are very in touch with Belgium and the Belgian people. They come across as great roll models, and even last year on Christmas Eve Mathilde paid an unofficial visit to a homeless shelter, and Philippe paid an unofficial visit to the troops in Afghanistan. There's no doubt in my mind that they'll make a great king and queen one day, because to me they're already such a great crown princely couple. To me it doesn't get any better than this couple, and I can't help but smil whenever I see pictures of them.
