Great video! Queen Louise often visited her family in the UK. While there, she loved going shopping incognito. Because of the London traffic, and the risk of being hit by a vehicle, she always carried a card in her handbag that said "I am the Queen of Sweden".

King Gustav VI Adolf had great foresight to marry Queen Louise, being that she is the aunt of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, and sister of Louis Earl Mountbatten of Burma. When King Gustav VI Adolf married her in 1923, this was before Prince Philip and Queen Elizabeth II were both born.

@@danielaxivitz6188 I meant it was before they were even Queen and Duke of Edinburgh. I know he died when he was 99 in 2021, so I think I have mastered math basics. Elizabeth was born in 1926, but I hope you get the point before everything was set in motion. The marriage was a master stroke because, at the time, Crown Prince Gustav Adolf had no one way of knowing that he would be Prince Philip and Queen Elizabeth's uncle by marriage.

She was queen when I was born in january 1964, so she was my queen for a year. You said she was a democrat at heart, For my part I think that our Swedish monarchy is very important for our country, and I see no contradiction between democray and a constitutional monarchy. On the contrary-when the head of state is a monarch and a good part of the peoples loyalty is with the monarch that can contribute to hamper ambitions of politicians who want to get "too powerful". In Spain king Juan Carlos is said to have saved the Spanish democray in 1981.

One thing that must be wrong is the statement that she was buried next to the king Gustaf VI Adolf. This comment based on the fact that she died in 1965 and the king in 1973 ......

@@misscoutts6193They are merely cousins through Queen Victoria, but I agree not a strong resemblance. The Mountbatten had certain chiseled features. Charles surely takes after his Mountbatten relatives. As Charles ages, he looks like his Uncle Dickie (Louis Mountbatten), brother of Queen Louise.

Princess Alice retained the title because she had married Prince Andrew of Greece and Denmark in 1903, thus she lost her title Princess of Battenberg but retained her Greek and Danish titles.

Not necessarily. Queen Louise was the first cousin once removed from Crown Princess Margaret.
