Summary

Join me on my historic tour of Scotland, May 15th-21st. MARCH 25th is the LAST DAY TO BOOK: https://trovatrip.com/trip/europe/united-kingdom/united-kingdom-with-lindsay-holiday-may-2024 Today we assume that all the daughters of a monarch are called Princesses. But in the middle ages this wasn’t the case. The title Princess was not officially used in England for the daughter of the monarch until 1643. Since then there have been 7 women who have held the title of Princess Royal; Mary, Anne, Charlotte, Victoria, Louise, Mary and Anne. Let’s meet them and see how the lives and roles of a Princess Royal have evolved over 400 years. Princess Mary, Princess of Orange (1631-1660) Princess Anne, Princess of Orange (1709-1759) Princess Charlotte, Queen consort of Württemberg (1766–1828) Princess Victoria, German Empress and Queen consort of Prussia (1840–1901) Princess Louise, Duchess of Fife (1867–1931) Princess Mary, Countess of Harewood (1897–1965) Princess Anne (1950) Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!
