    The life of Princess Alice of Greece was also tragic.

    So eine traurige Geschichte. Besonders das Baby an Bord verstärkt die Tragik. 🥀

    The family resemblance between princess Marina of Kent and Cecilia is so obvious you can really tell they are cousins

    Phillip really favors his dad. In addition, Charles, Edward,,and Harry really favor him.

    The Crown doesn't suggest that she traveled to London for Philip. In fact, the way it was portrayed was that she actually was trying to get out of going and suggested having Philip come for the holiday. When Philip gets in trouble and has to stay at school his sister is obligated to go to the wedding.
  • The thumbnail photo shows Princess Marina, Philip's cousin, not his sister, Cecile...
  • I believe its pronoun ed "Sesileee" not "Cecilia" but ive heard it pronounced both ways i could be wrong. Since its spelled "Cecilie" im thinking its pronounced the first way but im no historian

    I only saw some of the 1st episode of the Crown. On DVD. A very sad story about Cecile and her family.. It is also tragic she and her husband made bad choices and joined the Nazi movement.
