There is footage of a young Princess Elizabeth riding her bike with her sister, mum and dad taken in 1943. Zara Phillips is her double. When I looked at the stills I couldn't see it but definatley in the film.
Also, I think Pricess Beatrice is like her mother while Eugenie is like her dad.

Default Similarities between Princess Eugenie of York & Grand Duchess Maria Nikolaievna?

(Newbie here. :) )

I've been interested in the royal families of Britain and Russia for the longest time and while perusing the forums here and over at the Alexander Palace site, I noticed a striking resemblance between Princess Eugenie and Grand Duchess Maria Nikolaievna (of the Romanovs) when looking at the photos posted of them. Does anyone else notice any similarities between the two girls--not only in these pictures but in other pictures you may have seen?

Not only in the photos listed below but in many other photos as well, I've noticed that the pair also have similar facial expressions and hold themselves in much of the same way. I'm not saying they're identical or anything of the like, but the similarities are uncanny, lol. Of course, JMO.

ETA: For those that don't know, in the second black and white photo, Grand Duchess Maria is on the left. In the third and fourth photo, she's on the right. With her in the photos is her sister, Anastasia.

Her Majesty The Queen also kept the same hair throughout her reign like Queen Mary did as well

Default Prince Andrew & Prince Harry

Does anyone see a lot of Harry (& William -- across the eyes?) in this pic of Andrew? Andrew was about, what, 19 years old?

Harry looks alot like his aunt, Lady Sarah and his grandfather Prince Philip. William, who looks like his mother also favors his grandfather, Prince Philip as well as his cousin Peter.

As Andrew ages, he looks more like his brother Charles.

IMO she looks like Queen Mary or Princess Anne when they were little. I can't say for sure who she looks like today, maybe Zara?

I think when Beatrice gets older she will be the spitting image of her mother Sarah. You can tell now that she is looking quite a lot like her mother. Or et least I think so.

It's little Queen Mary -- Princess Anne, Zara Phillips, and the Queen looked remarkably like her when they were all little girls. The recent small photo of Lady Louise toddling alongside Sophie reminds me of Queen Mary's baby picture, too.

I think Princess Beatrice strongly resembles a young Queen Victoria. She def. favors more her father's side than her mother's, except for the red hair.

I think Lord Frederick Windsor resembles Queen Alexandra's 1st son, The Duke of Clarence?

The Queen resembles her father and grandmother.

And when they were both very small children, I think Zara Phillips and her mother were nearly identical.

I would have to agree with you but I think Charles was very cute when he was younger in his teens. I think he looked or acted kind of like William in a way. I also think William and Harry are very cute as well!!!

I agree with you HRHAmy Beatrice looks very much like her mother and when she gets older I think they'll look very much alike. Maybe they'll look like sisters!:)

Can anyone see the resemblences of the four children of HM to each other? I saw a picture of Edward @ the Garter ceremony and he and Anne resemble each other greatly as he does Andrew and Andrew and Charles kind of have the same nose in a way. Charles in one picture I saw looked like HM. Sorry I don't have these pics but you can see it any picture.
