November 20, 1938
King Carol II and Crown Prince Michael of Roumania are in Paris for an official visit. They are staying at the Hotel Meurice, which is also the residence of a certain red-haired lady Magda Lupescu. Madame Lupescu has not been seen publicly with the king, and is largely ignored by officials. The king, however, has sent a bouquet of red roses to Madame's room.
The Duke and Duchess of Windsor are also staying at the Meurice. Carol once renounced his rights for the women he loved - Magda - but later took the throne in a 1930 coup d'etat. The Duke of Windsor abdicated nearly two years ago, but he's unlikely to stage a coup against his brother, George VI.
