Alice and Andrew with their elder daughters Margarita and Théodora :



If anyone wonders where Prince Charles and Pr. Harry get the big ears from...look at this picture of Andrew..

There is a powerful resemblance between Prince Harry and the young Prince Philip.

I've always said so. Harry looks more like Charles than William does in my opinion! The rumors only exist because Hewitt has red hair--otherwise there is no resemblance between the 2 at all and a lot between Harry and Charles and Phillip. Their underlying bone structure (brow and nose especially) are very similar. I always thought they look more Battenberg than Greek but, yes, the ears! :)

William doesn't look at all like Charles, but he does look Diana. Harry's hair comes from the Spencers.

Back to Andrew! The ears obviously skipped a generation.

Yes. Andrew's blondness passed directly into Philip, but the ears went to Charles, who looked more like the Queen.

Yes I agree, the red hair of Harry comes from the Spencers (Harry looks a lot like his Aunt Sarah, Diana's oldest sister).

Now I agree that P. Harry looks so much like his grandpa Philip in that teen pic of him! The resemblance is soo strong I can't deny it! Anyways, Alice looks like her mother Victoria in that pic above. Many thanks, Therry for the scans!

Amazing colored fotos  by the most wonderful Yelena Aleksandrovna. Endless thank you very much!

Yes, Although Alice got the looks from her father Louis of Battenberg.

Going back to the question I posed some time ago on whether Andrew of Greece took part in the funeral procession after the Ostend air crash.

Looking at the standard photograph of the procession, which has appeared in the news again as a result of comments on all the inaccuracies of The Crown miniseries, I think he is on the left of the second row. In front are the young Philip, followed by Ludwig of Hesse, Berthold of Baden, Christoph of Hesse and Gottfried of Hohenlohe-Langenberg. At the left-hand end of the second row is a bareheaded man in civilian clothes who looks very like Andrew.

I had assumed that Andrew, as Cecile's father, would have been in the front row.

In the row behind, George of Milford Haven (in top hat) looks very frail.
