She Never Forgave Edward VIII 

and incest.

IT was ,and her duty was fulfilled ,......except to her children. She was a very cold woman .Very materialistic. She was never loved by the British public ,but she was hugely respected . She wasnt a bad person ,nor will she be remembered for any goodness either. The last one thrust on a people for arrangement ,and not love. Sadly ,the last Czarina seemed to have been similar . Unbending , yet one was devoted to her kids ,whilst the other put them second place . We may have had a different world ,had Mary been the Czarina ,and Alexandra Queen.

Wow. My dad bought a second hand Hermes holdall in the 60s monogrammed with "C Bowes Lyon" inside but had no idea of the significance (or the brand) so sadly somebody swindled him out of it.

absolutely.

IKR! I caught that too.

😅😅😅😅

@@maggiesatterfield2402 🤣🥲🥲 infuriating error!

Lighten up, pseudo Einstein. Get out of mama's basement once on a while

Thomas, there is a school of thought that Mary told husband George "No" on saving the Russian Imperial Family. I have read it in several places and there is also a video where HRH Prince Michael of Kent alludes to this as fact.

Whatever she alluded to, it would have been Parliaments decision. I'm sure if the grave outcome was known, different avenues would have been taken. It was a terrible tragedy thinking of the children but a revolution (unfortunately a bloodbath) was bound to happen. A country where the Ruling Classes had all power, with millions in abject poverty and nothing, it was always going to happen. The splendour they lived in was obscene!

Considering the men were first cousins, they SHOULD have had them shipped to England. That's family, regardless of politics. Think about how different things would have been had they been saved.

Oh yes they did; King George retracted his offer to Cousin Nicholas because of their unpopularity in their own country. They didn’t want that attitude in England. George and Mary certainly had Romanov blood on their hands. You can’t change history my friend.

QEII

it's a saying..we know the Monarch was the Queen of many countries in the Commonwealth

Albert Victor was the son of Edward, Prince of Wales (later King Edward VII). George, Duke of York (later King George V) was his brother.

@@gordonsmith8899 that’s what I said, in fewer words.

@@roseanne74 Beautifully put Roseanne lol

George was most definitely the Prince of Wales after his father, Edward VII, became king.

​@@gordonsmith8899And George V was the Prince of Wales and his wife, the future Queen Mary, the Princess of Wales after Edward VII became King.

I think our presant Duke of Edinburgh 's Daughter Lady Louise is the image of Queen Mary.more than our late Queen Elizabeth.

@@kathleenlynch5763 Maybe. She looks like her father certainly. It’s something about QEII face as she aged that reminds me of Queen Mary. I know Princess Mary Adalaide, Queen Mary’s mother, looks like Queen Victoria to me. I know they’re cousins but the resemblance is uncanny

thank you, ill stop watching now, should have guessed as much when the AI voice called HM Queen of England, im a Queen Mary fan,

We’ll, good, because until now, I knew nothing.

Yep! I'm only three minutes in, and I'm done. This is awful.

@@user-fm5jk8gc9n Queen of Britain.

Made by them too. What a mishmash of images.

A very British point of view. Such as Henry VII retaining Katherine of Aragon for spare son Henry after Arthur passed on. Although in that situation, he didn't want to part with the large dowry that had come with her.

AI.......😮‍💨

I was kind of wondering what the heck was going on with that.

What’s the name of the series? Thank you.

It's criminally inaccurate!

If you're going to correct someone, at least get the details right. He was christened Edward Albert Christian George Andrew Patrick David. Known to family and friends as David.

His baptismal name was Edward, his family name was David.

In fact there are no proven instances of kleptomania. It's a story that has become true by repetition. Evidence shows that she was a speedy payer of accounts and one well known bookseller in Oxford Street said that it was thanks to her lead that the aristocracy gave up their old established habit of letting bills go unpaid. She certainly never refused gifts but her innate sense of dignity wouldn't let her as it were, beg and she certainly wouldn't steal. Queen Mary is a particular interest of mine for a number of reasons, and I have been researching about her for about 10 years. Her daughter in law, Princess Alice, Duchess Of Gloucester, did have a reputation for just picking things up in shops, at least in Melbourne, when Prince Henry was Governor General of Australia. I spent a number of years there when in the Diplomatic Corps, and met people who remembered her visiting shops like David Jones or Myers, and just picking things up and walking out with them. Her equerry and lady in waiting would note what she took and return to the shop to pay.

That is just wrong. She may have cajoled but she never stole anything.

@zzzbbbooo Exactly so. She was known to say things like, 'I am caressing it with my eyes,' and if something was for sale She would try to negotiate the price. There is a story about her and her lady in waiting visiting Partridge, the antique dealer. Her lady in waiting recognised a crewel work bed cover that she recognised as coming from her childhood home and Mr Partridge offered it as a gift, which she refused. Queen Mary said to her, 'Constance, never refuse a firm offer. I never do.'

A tale only. Queen Mary died in 1953 i remember her well

Correct. She also got the King to change his mind about England granting the Russian Tsar and Tsarina refuge. She did not have royal blood, whereas the Tsariana did, and in the absence of the King, the Tsariana would precede her. Both have the blood of that tragic family upon them.

Harry looks more like Henry, (Harry's real name,) A young Henry the VIII.

Harry looks like the Spencer family.

I hope you meant trite. Unless you meant stomach-turning 😂

LoL...tripe or trite ...both words are befitting this video...

Sounds like an A.I. voice to me.

I think the winner was AHHH. DAJE. [if you guessed “adage” you win the TOP Prize! The Royal Family is just a hodgepodge of kooky recurring themes. Let’s ask Catherine of Aragon. I think Elizabeth II bore a striking resemblance to Mary both in facial and body type. But EII was softer and smiled more.💙💙💙

I heard the same and she was there at his bed side.

@@laurenmay2098 Unfortunately, Helene was not at Eddy's bedside. He was engaged to May of Teck by this time. Helene's wreath hung on Eddy's tomb for decades.

@@zzzbbbooo my understanding is that she was called to be. Mary knew she was his favorite mistress.

Because it was a hundred years ago and science/medicine had not the reach they have these days.

unless you're saying Howdee

Actually Queen Mary was not the remote mother as portrayed in movies and books. She was genuinely interested in her children. Unfortunately she viewed the King her husband as head of the empire and head of the family. His word was sacrosanct.

Not true. She cared a great deal about all her children though was not a physically affectionate mother.

Mary died 350 years after the death of Our most devoted monarch Elizabeth 1 24/3/1603

Who is Mary of Kent?

@@pedanticradiator1491 I meant to say Teck.

@@pedanticradiator1491 I meant to say Mary of Teck, Queen Elizabeth’s grandmother and the Queen Consort of George V.

Like Megan hmmm

MEGHAN MARKLE IS A THEIF, SAME AS MARY WAS!!!! CLEPTOMANIAC !!!!

@@debbyvibbert3177 Meghan steals?

I’m so glad to have your witness to this ‘alleged’ behavior.

@jackiebeh6702 Oh come on. Stories about her stealing, taking, and not fully paying for things has been documented multiple times in history. Here's a fun story. She gets invited to some aristocrat families dinner at their home. The hostess is giving her a tour of her manse and her collections where Mary sees two chairs that get her attention. She says to the hostess, "I have the table that goes with those two (ridiculously old and expensive) chairs. The woman continued Mary's tour. After dinner when Mary was set to leave and she brings up the chairs again. The woman knows what Mary's after and tried to avoid the subject but Mary wouldn't relent. She stood in that woman's foyer entrance and didn't move. The woman eventually figured she wasn't going to win and Mary left with those two chairs tied onto her carriage. True story.

Sandringham …. they actually lived in York Cottage (where Prince Philip retired to) on the estate.

Britain, you slapper.

coSier

Mary was born in Kensington Palace.

How sad. Neither is an attractive person.
