The Royal House of Windsor in Britain

An infographic illustrating the history and lineage of the Royal House of Windsor (the reigning dynasty of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth realms). The Windsors began when Edward, the eldest son of the last Hanover monarch, Queen Victoria, inherited the crown and the royal line changed over to the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha (from his father, Prince Albert). As World War One broke out in 1914, Britain, Russia, and Germany's monarchs were closely related. However, as anti-German sentiment rose at home, on July 17, 1917, George V of Britain issued a Royal proclamation changing the dynastic name to Windsor.

Now she belongs to the ages--though, of course, we will always prefer it when she belonged to us.

A Royal Life by HRH Duke of Kent & Hugo Vickers #HouseofWindsor #BookReview #Audiobook

I finally got around to listening to the #Dukeofkent's memoir recently. A cousin to the late #QueenElizabethII, he has also led a life of service. Famed royal historian #HugoVickers helped put together this book. #houseofwindsor #ARoyalLife #bookreview

HRH The Duke of Kent has been at the heart of the British Royal Family throughout his life. As a working member of the Royal Family, he has supported his cousin, The Queen, representing her at home and abroad. His royal duties began when, in 1952, at the age of sixteen, he walked in the procession behind King George VI’s coffin, later paying homage to The Queen at her Coronation in 1953. Since…

🌹💐🇬🇧✍️ Wishing a very happy 11th wedding anniversary to Zara and Mike Tindall!💍💒 The pair tied the knot at Canongate Kirk in Edinburgh eleven years ago today. Zara chose to wear a ivory silk dress fashioned by designer Stewart Parvin, one of her grandmother Queen Elizabeth’s favorite couturiers. She paired it with a green tiara. It originated in Greece's royal family, with Prince Philip's mother Alice gifting the tiara to Queen Elizabeth II, and the Queen then passed it on to her daughter, Princess Anne. Princess Anne lent it to her daughter as her “something borrowed” for her wedding. 👑 #britishroyalfamily #royalfamily #duchesskate #queenelizabeth #queenelizabethii #princessdiana #princewilliam #whatkatewore #duchessofcambridge #duchessofsussex #dukeofsussex #dukeofcambridge #princeofwales #OnThisDaylnHistory #ThisDaylnHistory #dukeofedinburgh #katemiddleton #dukeandduchessofcambridge #princegeorge #princesscharlotte #princelouis #princephilip #dukeofedinburgh #princeharry #princecharles #britishmonarchy #houseofwindsor https://www.instagram.com/p/CgqicIWjglv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Today's viewing is the program Prince Philip: The Royal Family Remembers. Here is the synopsis:

"Filmed throughout his 100th year -- before and after his death -- this landmark portrait of the Duke of Edinburgh features only those who knew him best: his family and closest staff."

I've always found Prince Philip (10 June 1921 – 9 April 2021) born Prince Philip of Greece and Denmark, later Philip Mountbatten fascinating. He always came across to me as someone you would like to have a pint with at a pub. Unlike some of the other royals who come off as stuffy and stodgy, Prince Philip always looked like he was a cool down to earth dude. His early life and family struggles during his childhood is very interesting and something I didn't know much about.
