King George II & Queen Elizabeth (nee Romania)

[Marlene]

God forbid!!!!!!!!!!!!if she had a child he wouldn't have been a happy one,that's for sure!!!!:(:(with such a cold mother:(:(Elisabeth was as cold as ice unfortunately for poor George
Laura

She may been cold for George -- but she had a more than active sex drive, with divers lovers.

I think she was selfish even as a child...hard to imagine her as mother...

[Laura_]

and she was extremely vicious too,bad example for a child...God Forbid again and again...i'm pleased she did not have children ,she simply wasn't born for that

she envied her sister Marioara,she even tried to seduce Alexander(after Mignon gave birth to her first son),can you imagine??and Marioara said to her mother that" Elisabeth wanted to take from her everything she ever had"
it seems Elisabeth wasn't born to be sister neither:(
i wonder what for she was born???

For her own pleasure!!

and to make (together with her "brilliant"brother)her family suffer
Laura

[Eric_Lowe]

Well...She and Carol were close even as children.   I guess both of them are selfish in a sense.

[Eric_Lowe]

That is why Missy was closer to Ileana and Mignon than her elder offsprings. To be fair, Elisabetta was spoiled by her father and grandmother, Infanta Antoina (she did resembled her grandmother in looks).  

[Bernardino]

Yes she resembled her grandmother...Though not as pretty (I mean if they were the same age  )...

But I thought Elisabeth was brought up by Queen Marie (Carmen Sylva) !!!

So she was spoiled by Infanta Dona Antonia?

Queen Marie is not Carmen Sylva  
Laura

[Eric_Lowe]

Yes...Carman Slvia was "Aunty", Queen Elisabeth of Romania. Both Infanta Antonia & Queen Elisabeth spoiled the girl, and her beauty also gave Elisabetta a vanity that would not have existed otherwise.

i don't think she was that beautiful,i rather prefer Mignon's beauty and Ileana too
Elisabeth was "Nando's daughter"and who would regard Nando as a beautiful man??
Laura

[Eric_Lowe]

No...Elisabetta's beauty was admitted by her mother Missy, and so was her selfishness. I think she takes after her grandmother Infanta Antonia (who was an acknowledged beauty) who was spoiled and have less regard for others. She was into intrigue as well, as she pitted each daughter-in-law against the other, Missy noted that in her autobio...

[Laura_]

maybe...but anyway she was too fat for my taste:(
Laura

[Bernardino]

Sometimes I feel one must think that everything that Missy has told was true...canīt she just have hated her mother-in-law?

We only get one version of the facts...she might have been a great Queen and woman, but she wasn't the owner of the truth...
