Prince Henry (Heinrich) of Prussia, his family and descendants

[Russka Princess]

i thhink the realtionship of the Louis with Henry, Sergej, Nicky and Ernie was very nice and friendly. i think  they were friends, like a close family of course with their Wifes.

[Eric_Lowe]

Yes...especially Nicky and Henry since both have sick sons...I think Irene was a comfort to Alicky...They were in the same boat. 

[Russka Princess]

but someoher i has read in our forum that that someone has wrote that Nicky and henry was friendly to each other, but not very close like nicky and Ernie.

[Eric_Lowe]

Well...Nicky was friendly to most people, but I think Henry understood what Nicky and Alicky went through than Ernie. Although it was at Ernie's wedding (to Ducky that is) that Nicky finally won Alicky over...

[Russka Princess]

yeah mabe. but nicky and Ernie was close friends. and i think    Henry with louis, cause they has share their Passion : the sea"

what new for me is that Sigismund has marry on the 11.th July, ist the birthday of his Mother Irene.

and Waldemar has marrys on the 13.th August, on the birthday of his father Henry.

Mabe they wanted made a surprise to their Parents

[Eric_Lowe]

I agree that Irene had some aspects of sneakiness in her charecter...

[Russka Princess]

Mabe ist the idea  of the Sons of Irene and Henry . Irene was not perfect like all.

But her relatives in Germany and England, loved her and henry. And the townspeople of Kiel, loved the pair too.

[Eric_Lowe]

Generally speaking Irene was not a bad person, nor was she motivated by malice in her dealing like her sister-in-law Charlotte. She was just a busybody that wanted to get into the action (like she was the first to visit Anna Anderson...).

[Russka Princess]

i knew that her sister-in law Charlotte was not a good mother, she has a daugther and has ignore her. Henry and Irene was on the side of their Niece. Henry has a fight with his sister charlotte, and Irene has just supported  her husband.

[Eric_Lowe]

I know "Charley the brat" was not a popular member of the Hohenzollern Family. However in Darmstadt I saw some nice photos of Irene taken with her cousin and in-law. They were dated around the time of the Wedding (Irene & Henry's) and both looked happy and relaxed...

[Russka Princess]

ah ok,  but i think their relationship, was broken, where charlotte has married and has ignore her daugther.

[Eric_Lowe]

Charlotte was a selfish woman who lived intrigue, while Irene just listens to gossip, not in the same league...

With all due respect, the perpetual posts between Eric Lowe and Russka Princess make painful reading. It's ruined the thread.

[Russka Princess]

Perhaps Eric Lowe and Russka  Princess could be given their own thread.
