Happy 76th Birthday on January 15th to Princess Michael of Kent, wife of the Queen's cousin, Prince Michael of Kent. Baroness Marie Christine von Reibnitz is a larger than life member of the Royal Family and not without controversy. A Catholic and a divorcee, her previous marriage was annulled just one month before her marriage to Prince Michael. Much has been written about her father's membership in the Nazi Party during World War II, she is the author of several novels and non-fiction works at least one of which was tainted by accusations of plagiarism, and on several occasions, has been accused of outright racism.
Princess Pushy, as she has been called, certainly stands out. And so she should, as at six feet tall, she towers over most of the women of the House of Windsor!
I've heard her name in the past, for some reason I thought she was the next generation down from the Queen. Very beautiful lady... and tall!
