Well...Frederike was known to be quite bossy and her words sometimes do shock some people I am told...So not too weird.

I remember there is a clip in which she talks about how strong a woman she was and how she fights (shades of Princess Diana in it).

IMO and i'm not greek but as HM King Constantine has stated more than once, and even King George II, and going back even further HM King Constantine I, all of the depositions have been illegal and against the greek constitution, and the greek people have suffered every single time with out the Head of State (THe Sovereign) to Stabilize and be the continuity of gvt in Greece.    This time the cycle has just lasted longer than previously.  that King paul didn't speak greek?.. is ludicrous.   HM Queen Fredricka was maligned just as Queen Sophia was (maybe with a lil more reason ) but Sophia was maligned for nothing more than being the Kaisers sister , and remember Tatoi was set ablaze supposedly bc they thought there was a "Secret telegraph machine" to the Kaiser there" , and Queen Frederica was the Kaisers Granddaughter, and most people thought she interfered with politics.

like i said IMO  the Republicans, communists, whichever have run greece into i believe you call that complete and total bankruptcy...

King Constantine I firmly exercised his monarchial perogatives and the corrupt politicians exiled him, King Paul wouldn't tolerate any enroachment on his perogatives either.  THe communits had to villify HM the Queen

It didn't help that Queen Frederike was "so strong" unlike Queen Sophie & Queen Olga.

or simply stronger than her husband perhaps.

I think so. It is alright to be able to support your husband, but to push yourself forward is not helpful. Queen Frederike was not heeding the example of her great grandmother (Kaiserin Friedrich, enemy of Bismark), who was viewed as politically ambitious and was vilified by politicians and the press. Even in this country, Hillary Clinton was made unwelcome when they viewed her role being too political as first lady.

Tried both links. The first connects with a page that is full with greek scriptures, the other shows nothing.

My consort had met her as a child. She certainly possessed all the public relations attributes that fit a queen! (unlike her husband who, even as a king, could hardly speak the language of his subjects).


never in all my life heard of king paul unable to speek greek! do we have any proof for this?

That is the most ludicrous thing I have ever read. Ther is numerous audio(s) of His Majesty speaking perfect Greek.

All parents teach their children their native tongue.
This is just maicious rumour mongering.
Kiing Konstantines children had been educated by some of the best people in Athens, and all the boys had served as military cadets in all the services. It is IMPOSSIBLE for them to not be able to speak the language properly.

I think it was another example of Frederike's gaffe.
