Prince Andrew of Greece and his family, Part II

[Eric_Lowe]

She was really quite attractive although figure wise on the more plump side.

[Russka Princess]

Alice was beautifull & bright girl
no wonder by such a clever mother & handsome father ^^

by the way Victoria was also never very slank like her sisters Ella & Alix. She was a little plumpy aswell.

[Eric_Lowe]

Yes. All her aunts were a bit plumpish.

Perhaps its just me but i've always seen an astounding resemblance between Alice and her great grandaughter Princess Eugenie of York i don't know i think its the eyes or something, but i'm not sure, i've always just found a really strong resemblance!
Some of the photo's of Alice as a young woman are just stunning!

[Eric_Lowe]

I think Eugenie resembled her father in looks.

Yes, Alice was a real stunner in terms of looks. Her only drawback in the royal marriage market was her morganetic blood and her deafness.

[LauraO]

Her story's actually so very sad, in today's society the things that she had to desperatley battle to try and overcome would never have been seen as such a problem.
hmmm... i think Beatrice looks stikingly like her father, but hey, occassionally i'll see a side picture of andrew nowdays and think it the duke of edinburgh! I guess people see different sorts of things in different people!

In my time 23:55 is in 5 min Alice´s Birthday!!

Happy Birthday !!

Rest in Peace

i cant still belive that she was the mother from Prince Phillipp..

She was a good person, she has a good family who taked care for her...she was unfortly unhappy in her marrige but has wonderfull Children!
And she hide jews (in a house like i did heard).

She was really quite attractive although figure wise on the more plump side.

As was her first cousin Victoria Eugenia until the 1930´s....

[Eric_Lowe]

Like all the daughters of Queen Victoria. The Glucksborgs(Danish/Greek) family were a bit more on the slim side.

Andrew, 1935 :

Prince Philip do resembled him greatly. The charm and the sadness though was evident in the father.

Theodora and her husband Berthold of Baden :

I think from the time of their engagement.

The resemblance between the older Andrew and the Duke of Edinburgh is very obvious.

Interestingly, Philip Eade's book 'Young Prince Philip' includes a set of photos taken of the seven-year-old Philip 'taking part in a biscuit-eating competition'. The facial expressions are just like Prince Harry at the same sort of age!
