Thanks for the pic, Madjenn, she looks great, it's so hard to believe that she already celebrated her 70th birthday..

Here is an older pic, taken around 1989/1990:

A very brief clip of Princess Marina speaking at the Ghana Independance celebrations in 1957. There's a Greek accent there but it's faint and she has quite a deep voice. Not stunning in quality but well worth a watch.

Looking for Google images I found the Princess's some photos:


First is a letter with a photo dedicated, the photo is of a session of photos of 1972, right now I have put some but this never had her seen. http://i11.tinypic.com/4i4t6r6.jpg

Second, a young Alexandra http://i13.tinypic.com/2cifack.jpg
Third, it is not her better photo but every day looks alike more to her mother in her great old age http://i12.tinypic.com/48f3t4i.jpg

Great findings, Madjenn, thanks for sharing I'm also glad that you liked the last pic I've posted and that you made an avatar out of it. Very nice
Here is a pic of Princess Alexandra in 2003, I like the way she looks on that pic very much:

Princess opens new hospital building
Princess Alexandra opens £5.4m hospital building

Her Royal Highness Princess Alexandra was in Harlow this week to open a new building at the town's hospital.
She opened the department of cellular pathology in a new £5.4 million building named after Dr Mike Letcher, who was killed in a road accident two years ago.
The new building replaces the ageing buildings where the department used to be based at St Margaret's Hospital in Epping.
Her Royal Highness was shown round units and laboratories housed in the new building, including one of only two Cytology departments in Essex and a training room where students and consultants use a seven way microscope.

I wonder if Princess Alexandra ever visits her cousin, QE. I know that with families, such as mine, whenever we live in the same city and grew up together, we visit one another and talk about family stuff. Such as does Princess Alexandra ever mention QE grandchildren when they appear in the paper drunk or such. Or, is there any regular phone conversation between the two? With Princess Margaret and the Queen Mother gone, QE would need to have another lady her age to talk to or to visit with.

Yes Romy, me too. I never seen it before, Alexandra and Grace looks radiant. My pic is from March 2004 in hotel Ritz. I think that is the last pic of Sir Angus Ogilvy. TinyPic - Share The Experience!™

And I am always surprised about yours as well, Madjenn, this is such a wonderful portrait you've posted! Thanks!

I'm not sure when the following pic was taken, I would guess in the 1960s:

Lovely Alexandra in yellow

Thank you so much for posting your great findings, Madjenn!

So many events Alexandra attended and it's nearly not noticed as the press does no
longer concentrate that much on her..Alexandra looked so great, I liked her dresses
very much and it's fantastic that she's still so busy and healthy..
