Pushed to my last resort
I took my father to court
It was all over the news
The family was not amused
Some people were horrible
It was terrible
I kept level headed
In the old days I would be beheaded
The judges listened with deaf ears
Knowing the outcome was clear
Power took over
The whole charade was a cover
Lady justice is not blind
She has left me in a bind
Blacklisted, outcast
My future will not be my past
Justice is a nonsense word
That does not exist in this world

2 Albert II took his role seriously
19 jul. 2013
Nine years later, Albert married Princess Paola of Italy, and they made three children. He held several official posts, and travelled widely.
Baudoin reigned for 42 years, dying in 1993. He and Queen Fabiola, originally from Spain, had no offspring. Although Albert’s eldest son, Philippe, had been prepared for the role, Albert, now aged 59, was first in line. Only a year later, the country became a federal state and a new constitution was signed.
This was a big influence on his reign, and he made it his cause to promote inter-regional and inter-communal relations. A strong supporter of multi-cultural society, Albert spoke out openly and forcefully for pluralism and against xenophobia and discrimination. He earned his reputation as an unpretentiously warm and accessible king.
He rallied the people in 1996, when Belgium was dragged to the worst depravity by the pedophile serial murderer rapist Marc Dutroux. The anguished Belgians were deserted by their dysfunctional police and legal institutions, and failing politicians. Albert held meetings of condolence with the families of the children, and laid down a line the mourning nation craved.
He said. “The Queen and I are convinced that this tragedy must now be the occasion for a moral leap and a profound change in our country. Let each authority behave with humility, and self-examination.”
Belgians appreciated their sovereign for this. The next day’s White March filled central Brussels. Gatherings had been held outside courtrooms the week before. People had declared a national shame. Now they carried white.
Albert was never far from the front lines in politics, either, when opposing language communities threatened to dismantle the country – increasingly after 2007 – notably a few years later when divisions left it without a government for 541 days, and he did his part in the striving for answers.
“I wouldn’t be faithful to my role if I failed to reiterate solemnly the risks a long crisis runs for all Belgians, and if I didn’t exhort anew every man and woman politician to show themselves as constructive, and to swiftly find a balanced solution to our problems.”
Reality is scary when you don’t believe in fairies
I want to see magic but I’m always in a panic
Torment
I resent
Make it stop
Blame, blame, blame
Shame, shame, shame
Always the same
No more guilt
How can I build?
Family ties stop me to fly
No more shame
It is too much pain
Make it stop
Otherwise I will drop
If this persists
I shall no more exit

3 Albert II: Belgium’s ex-king admits he fathered a love child
28 jan. 2020
It is so strange
How I derange
When I was born
My parents were torn
Did they want me?
Am I not to be?
But the problem was I came out
And it moved everything about
So now I exit
That nasty feeling persists
Should I go away?
Or should I stay?
No fun that confused feeling
To always want to be feeling

I feel I am such a pain
Am I in the way?
I feel like running away
Especially from this place
They think how dare I show my face
What I have done to trigger this?
Without all this would my live be a bliss?
I will not accept their judgments and nasty comments
Nor be pushed down and surrounded by frowns
Or fake smiles that I can see from miles
I am in such pain
I do not deserve this fame of shame

You are the beginning
That sets my heart spinning
Your words are appealing
But your actions can be disturbing
You can be so thoughtful
But you can be so awful
You have such influence
While the truth can be hard
You are always in my heart

Life can be hell
If you can’t even yell
Why is communicating difficult?
Silence is your biggest fault
Stuck in a rut
Trust your gut
Speak your mind
And in Time you will find
That doors will open
By the words you have spoken

Never give up
When the going gets tough
Never give up
When you fuck-up
Never give up
When you are in a rut
Never give up
When life sucks
Never give up
When the system is corrupt
Never give up
When the future looks fucked
Never give up
Don’t self-destruct
Never give up
Try to reconstruct
Never give up

11 L’officialisation du parc Delphine Boël à Gand est à l’étude
2 feb. 2020
Delphine Boël est bien la fille du Roi Albert II. Mais ce qui n’est pas encore officiel, c’est l’appellation du parc situé le long de la Burggravenlaan et du chemin de fer à Gand. Depuis 2010, un petit espace vert porte le nom de la désormais quatrième enfant d’Albert. Une initiative d’un comité de riverains de l’avenue Princesse Clémentine, “Viva Clementina”. Le jour de l’inauguration, le 28 août 2010, Delphine Boël était même présente sur place pour dévoiler la plaque “Park Delphine Boël”, belgische kunstenares, 1968″.
Mais l’appellation, on l’a dit, n’a aucune valeur officielle. C’est désormais un lieu-dit qui a toutefois une reconnaissance numérique. Google a planté une indication “Parc Delphine Boël” sur ses cartes. La reconnaissance de Delphine actée par le Roi Albert II lui-même, les autorités gantoises et les riverains souhaiteraient aller plus loin dans la démarche.
Guy Reynebeau, ancien échevin gantois SP.A, qui avait organisé la cérémonie d’inauguration en 2010, a été un des premiers cette semaine à réclamer une formalisation de l’appellation dans un post facebook. “Lorsque le projet a été porté au conseil communal, il a fait couler beaucoup d’encre”, se souvient l’ancien mandataire dans une interview au Nieuwsblad. “Notamment parce qu’un parc prend son nom dans un quartier qui n’a que des noms de rues royales : Prinses Clementinalaan, Koningin Elisabethlaan, Koningin Astridlaan. Il s’agit donc d’une reconnaissance officieuse. Une fausse plaque signalétique de rue a été réalisée et placée à la lisière du parc. Le signe ne devait pas non plus sembler trop réel pour empêcher quiconque d’avoir à appeler les services d’urgence et qu’il y ait confusion.”
Aujourd’hui, celui-ci plaide pour la reconnaissance officielle. Pourquoi ? Afin de favoriser la féminisation de l’espace public, toujours dominé par des références masculines. “Une rue qui porterait le nom de Delphine Boël ? Cela n’aurait pas de sens et cela ne se fait qu’après le décès d’une personnalité. Mais officialiser l’appellation du parc, c’est tout à fait possible.”
Patrick Ysebie, du comité de quartier, a été l’origine de la création du parc, dans un esprit frondeur. “A Gand, nous sommes un peu des rebelles. Il faut savoir que ce parc est un endroit peu connu mais très agréable. On y trouve des arbres centenaires. Et c’est là que se trouvait jadis la gare Saint-Pierre”, déclare celui-ci à la VRT. “Tout le monde pensait que jamais elle ne viendrait à l’inauguration. On nous prenait pour des fous.”
A l’époque, Delphine Boël est une personnalité mais son lien avec la famille royale reste encore sujet à supputations. Depuis, les choses ont changé.
Pour les autorités gantoises, il faut toutefois se conformer à certains critères. “Seuls les membres de la famille royale vivants peuvent donner leur nom à une artère, à un lieu”, exemple avec le boulevard du Roi Albert II à Bruxelles inauguré en 1999. Dans le cas de Delphine Boël, “il y a une reconnaissance mais le statut juridique n’est pas encore très clair. En tout cas, ce qui sûr, c’est que Gand veut pousser la féminisation de l’espace public”, disent les autorités citées par la VRT.
Si le dossier venait à trouver une issue favorable, le comité de quartier se dit prêt à inviter une nouvelle fois Delphine dans le cadre d’une cérémonie formelle.

Guilty guilty guilty
Why should I be burdened with this penalty?

Why should people pick on my face?

Was this an accident?
Sadly it is a lack of responsibility
This is a bad reality
It is evil and heartless
All this leaves me breathless

14 Belgique: une femme déclare être la fille non reconnue du roi
19 jun. 2013
http://fr.euronews.com/2013/06/18/bel…
Elle serait la fille non reconnue du Monarque Belge. Delphine Boel âgée de 45 ans a fait comparaitre le roi Albert II et deux des ses enfants devant la cour de Bruxelles pour que le roi reconnaissent qu’il est bien son père. L’affaire éclate dans le royaume en 1999. Au cours d’un message adressé à Noel, le roi revient sur ses problèmes passagers de couple remontant aux années 60. Problèmes qui auraient donné lieu à une relation extra conjugale dont serait issue Delphine Boel. Mais dans la juridiction belge le roi ne peut comparaitre devant une cour, ce qui limitent les chances de Delphine Boel d’être reconnue.

“My message is more really, if I have to give one, is more really to the media who is interested in the story, is to say, look, I’ve told you and I’ve already said it through my work that came out of my guts, that just came out, it wasn’t trying to show anybody, it was just coming out like that and I explained it and I think now it is pretty much the end of the story. I have said what I had to say and if there is any more questions, please go to the other party which is the palace, not me.”

She’s come back home and said ‘Papa is king’ and I said ‘No, not really, no’. But she’s getting a little confused and she is very young, so I will tell her gradually, but she is very little, she doesn’t understand it really.”

STORYLINE:
The out-of-wedlock daughter of King Albert II has published a book, venting her anger at her father’s refusal to have anything to do with her and making her feel “like meat left to the dogs”.
In “Cutting The Umbilical Cord,” 40-year-old Delphine Boel writes of her pain caused by Albert’s neglect of her and her desire to end nine years
of fruitless bids to seek royal recognition.
No matter your background, she writes in her book, “you are responsible for the child you produce. You do not abandon it. That is what my father has done.”
Boel, an artist living in London, presented her book to the media in Brussels on Wednesday.
“I have said what I had to say,” Boel said in a news conference on Wednesday, referring to her published work. “If there’s any more questions, please go to the other party which is the palace, not me.”
Boel’s existence was revealed in an unauthorised 1999 biography of Queen Paola, Albert’s Italian-born wife, as the daughter of the Belgian monarch and Sybille Baroness de Selys Longchamps, the wife of a former Belgian industrialist.
In his Christmas message that year, King Albert admitted to an extramarital affair in the late 1960s saying it nearly wrecked his marriage to Queen Paola.
But he added, “We won’t dwell on this subject which is part of our private lives”.
Since 1999, Boel has made several public appearances in Belgium hoping to normalise relations with King Albert who has four grown children with Queen Paola.

When I was a child
I did not live in the wild
My mother took care
But there was something strange in the air
I was made to feel different
The gossip was persistent
I did not know the reason
Had there been a treason?
I grew up with a secret nag
And now I have a tag
People judge me and it makes me sad
One should not, It is bad
I hate racism/snobbism
It is a masked pessimism
We are all the same
There should be no shame

19 Confessions of a Prince
Witness History
Over a period of four years before his death in December 2004, Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands, the consort and husband of former Queen Juliana, gave a series of secret interviews to two Dutch journalists, on condition that nothing was published until after his funeral. In his conversations with the reporters, the German-born Prince sought to justify a string of extra-marital affairs and a million dollar bribe he had received in the 1970s from the American aircraft manufacturer Lockheed. Prince Bernhard also revealed for the first time the existence of an illegitimate daughter born as a result of an affair in the United States. The publication of the Prince’s confessions by De Volkskrantran newspaper shocked the Dutch public, but were met with silence by the Palace. Mike Lanchin spoke to Jan Tromp, one of the journalists who spent hours interviewing the controversial Dutch royalty.

Maar er bestaat ook een tv-interview met Van Amerongen over Bernhard. Eind mei 2000, toen Bernhard op het randje van de dood leek te zweven, werd Van Amerongen geïnterviewd door Rudi Boon van het VPRO-programma Lopende Zaken. Ook in dat gesprek sprak Van Amerongen openhartig over zijn vriendschap met de Prins, op voorwaarde dat het interview alleen uitgezonden zou worden als Bernhard zou overlijden. Maar Bernhard overleefde Martin van Amerongen. De hoofdredacteur van De Groene overleed in 2002.
Nu Bernhard is overleden zendt Andere Tijden het interview met Van Amerongen aanstaande dinsdag 7 december voor het eerst uit.
