Their talent is crazy to comprehend at their young age, that was wonderful to see what they do. I’d say they aren’t just guests now but lifelong friends to you now

Not only Stephanie ...but I got the sense that this kind of attire was deja vu for Phillip. He seemed so naturally dapper ...like he had dressed this way before as a very dandy gentleman ...perhaps in another life! Anyway, both Stephanie and Phillip would be perfect extras in period dramas, or even main characters themselves ...and in a way they already are! ...living in a castle.

It would be really amazing if Nikki and Melchior , Philip and Stephanie and John etc did a photo shoot together in various periods of costume using his carriages and some vintage cars at his Chateau! They could then be made into a book or calendar or both and sold by each other!
