Speaking of the British royal family, there are several long-lived people, the queen's husband, Prince Philip 99 years old this year
And the Princess Alice I want to talk about today, Elizabeth II's third aunt, lived to be 103 years old, and passed away peacefully in her sleep.
And there are more legendary stories in her that are worth reading.
Princess Alice, Duke of Gloucester , was born on December 25, 1901 in Montague Building, London.
Her father was a Scottish nobleman, Duke of Barklu and Marquis John Mongoliata Douglas Scott (because of the marriage, his surname is very long), and he was a true landlord in England.
Mother, Margaret Bridgeman was also born to everyone.
Alice ranks third in the home. Her superior family conditions and loose family environment have allowed Alice to grow into an independent and free and easy woman.
She first studied at St. James Girls' High School and then went to France and Kenya to study in college.
is different from the woman who was raised in the boudoir at that time. She prefers to travel around. Skiing and traveling are her favorites.
Moreover, she has high attainments in watercolor painting, and is a versatile and free and independent woman.
html An encounter in her 120s took her life to another field.
Alice's father and king George V is very familiar with him. His brother and George V's third son Prince Henry often come and go, so Alice met Prince Henry.
I met the princess and noble daughter who was used to following the rules, and this maverick girl immediately attracted his attention.
Not long after, Prince Henry proposed to Alice.
Just when everyone thought good things were approaching, a shocking news came.
Alice rejected Henry and traveled abroad quickly.
This scene is a bit like Japanese Emperor Naruhito chasing Queen Masako, and a bit like when Emperor Akihito was chasing Michiko
The better the family background, the more well-educated women are avoiding the royal life like birdcage
The royal marriage brings them far more bonds and pressures than happiness and happiness, and escape becomes the only way out.
That's it, Alice has been running for 11 years. She has traveled around over the years, and her vision and mind are no longer the little girl she used to be.
Just as she was about to embark on a new journey, a letter from her home stopped her.
My father is seriously ill and she needs to return to China.
There is always concern where parents are. If this is also a bond, it will also be filled with the smell of happiness.
Alice returned to the UK, and in that era, 34-year-old female children were at the age of middle school.
And she really became the older leftover woman everyone calls her.
It’s a coincidence that Prince Henry, 35, is also single.
This time Henry proposed to Alice, and Alice agreed.
It’s not that Henry has been waiting for Alice. He has also dated others, but he is far from talking about marriage.
for so many years, he is still after going around. The man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried. There is no other explanation except the golden finger of month old .
Just like that, the two quickly got engaged. In November, the two held a wedding at Westminster and have been together for a lifetime.
Two nieces Elizabeth II and Princess Margaret are bridesmaids.
Alice was not wearing a white wedding dress that we often have, but a pink wedding dress, because her father had just passed away at that time, and she paid politely tribute to her father in this way.
and Alice is also the only bride in the British royal family who got married in a pink wedding dress.
special and warm.
After marriage, Alice followed her husband Henry to study the Army Staff course, and returned to London the following year to serve as an assistant to George VI .
Of course, the issue of having a child is also mentioned on the agenda.
But she is indeed a little older. She has miscarried twice during pregnancy and was both physically and mentally.
Fortunately, God blessed her. She gave birth to her eldest sons, William and Richard, at the age of 40 and 43.
The story is perfect here.
Although I got married late, my husband is my old acquaintance and I have two cute children.
Flowers are probably her at this time.
In the middle, the younger brother Duke Kent died in the air crash (see the story link
One month after marriage, the eldest son died in a plane crash.
Speaking of the eldest son William, he is a very outstanding person. He studied for a year at Stanford University and is the British royal family. The first person to enter an American university
After graduation, he worked in diplomacy and was transferred to Japan as a second-class secretary. He flew from the UK to Japan on a plane.
It was also in Japan that he met and fell in love with a Hungarian woman, but the other party was a divorced woman with children, and was not recognized by the royal family. William insisted.
But my father was seriously ill, and William returned to China.

Fortunately, she also had her younger son Charlie Del with her grandchildren for more than 30 years. In the year, I watched my grandson marry a wife, watched my grandson go out in a wedding dress, and watched the old man around me leave, and a new life came.
Alice left peacefully in her sleep. That year she was 103 years old.
She was born in a wealthy family. She has been honored and precious since she was a child, but she is independent and free.
