I enjoyed watching this video so very much. The music is very dramatic so that you remain focused on the video. The photos of Princess Marina and her husband are just beautifully done, so elegant yet so simple. The younger generation also are very attractive. However, there was a touch of sadness to it all of absent friends. Wonderful to view and thankyou for taking the time Lady Mountbatten so that we can view this video.

The Kents were indeed beautiful people perhaps the most attractive of all in the British Royal Family. The current Duke looks like his father and Alexandra is Mama's twin indeed.
@HBB Find a shrink. Delusional is dangerous. For the record Prince George was very popular with all who knew him and was much loved by his devoted wife Princess Marina.
George Duke of Kent was bisexual. He had affairs with both men (especially Noel Coward) and women during his life. His wife Marina was a Danish-Greek princess. She was a good looking woman. When Edward VIII abdicated, there was a political faction who wanted the Kents to take the Throne instead of Prince Albert- who didn't want it. But the old Queen Mary insisted that Berty should be king, so he was crowned King George VI in 1937.
@HBB George V's mother Alexandra was a Princess of Denmark alone, not of Greece. Her father became King of Denmark from a branch of the Glucksburgs. It was her brother George I who became King of Greece, although Danish prince. His descendants are the ones who use the territorial designation 'of Greece and Denmark', including Prince Philip, Princess Marina, Alexandra of Yugoslavia, etc.
@@Domhangairt Dimitri Pavlovich and Prince George were second cousins, so that would make sense there was a similarity. George’s grandmother and Dimitri’s grandfather were siblings.
Very nice I think people forget Princess Marina was widowed durin WW II and those chidlren grew up without their father. Of the Kents the Duchess is a wonderful woman and as for Princess Alexandra she is a hard working kind lady. do not know anything about the younger generation. katherine Duchess of Kent quietly teaches children. I see Marinia Oglive is stil in the doghouse. Hoever, I am glad she was reconciled with her father before he died. Nicely done. I always admired Princess Marina.
Michael’s maternal grandmother, maternal grandfather AND paternal grandfather were first cousins to Nicholas, either through the Greek side or the Russian side, so that’s not surprising there’s a resemblance!
Interesting observation, and I pretty much agree with you. It must have something to do with the way photographs were made/printed back then. When silver based films were the standard,, the printing process would involve careful use of techniques like dodging and burning-- the photographer had a lot of control over how the image turned out.
@@SuperAnimelover100 Haaaaaaaaa--well Princess Di was no competition for Marina, the Duchess of Kent. Not only was the elegant Grecian Duchess of Kent acknowledged as one the the most beautiful woman of her time she was frequently cited on the International Best Dressed list which Hollywood glitz Di with her hook nose & vulgar tabloid scandals was not with good reason. Unlike the Duchess of Kent there are no great photographers or noted celebrities of prominence who ever counted Prince Di on their top 10 most beautiful women list.
Princess Marina's elder sister Princess Olga of Yugoslavia perhaps the most beautiful of the three elegant and spectacular looking daughters of Prince Nicholas & the Grand Duchess Helene of Russia.
MERCI POUR CES BELLES IMAGES , J'AI TOUJOURS ENTENDU PARLER PAR DES PARENTS PLUS AGÉS DE LA PRINCESSE MARINA DE FAÇON TRÈS ADMIRATIVE ET POSITIVE ; J'AIME BEAUCOUP SAR LA PRINCESSE ALEXANDRA , MÊME SI ELLE RESTE TRÈS DISCRÉTE C'EST POUR MOI UNE "VRAIE" PRINCESSE.
U made a video for Prince William of Gloucester but I couldn’t find it right now. I am interested to know the background music of that video. Pls let me know
Yes I would agree so too. Prince Michael would look like his father if he did not have the mustache but now he looks like a crossover between the Tsar and the King.
@@melissar5261 Bi. He also probably fathered a son in Kenya by one the decadent Happy Valley set who was adopted by American publishing tycoon. Michael Canfield, he was the first husband of Jackie Kennedy's sister.
@HBB There is no evidence whatsoever to support your "known truth" tabloid BS. Produce the name of Princess Marina's illegitimate child and where his picture can be sourced. HBB won't do this because like Sandy Sandy he can't.
