Thanks for the nice pics Romy and Madjenn  and indeed that's a rare finding, Madjenn!
I found a pic of Princess Alexandra in 1984 and two covers from 1952 and 1963:

Thanks Iceflower and Romy, I'm with you, blue color brilliant on her and if besides she puts on that one wonderful filtering of gems, but majestic.
Here some of my favorite photos:
1- Princess Alexandra, in ball of golden wedding of Queen and Duke of Edinburgh, so elegant  (1997).
2- Princess Alexandra and Prince Charlie on theatre (1999).
3- Princess Alexandra and Angus Ogilvy, Ascot (1995).
4- Princess Alexandra and Angus Ogilvy (1995).
5- Princess's son wedding, James Ogilvy, with Queen (1989).

Hello Iceflower!! I am sorry not to have given you thank you for that spectacular image, today I have given a link to her niece Gabriella with a red dress wear in this photo similar and I'm surprising similar to that they get to look alike. Again, thank you for your images.

Good news!!
Although I would have preferred that I would have it celebrated in a big party like the Queen but Princess always has been discreet in her life as soon as more were not expected. I put the only photo of the Princess in the dinner of the anniversary of the Queen, to her Hotel Ritz's exit. (rex features)

Orincess Alexandra's engagement ring....
On post #131 it shows a good picture of her beautiful blue engagement ring and gold band. Since I like all things that are blue it caught my eye. Does anyone know what kind of stone it is? Thanxxx.

Hello Vinjan!!
The ring on post 130 isn't the Alexandra's engagement ring. This is the ring: http://i14.tinypic.com/4cjvjac.jpg of diamonds and a great central sapphire. I hope that you be helpful for you.

Her engagement ring is big sapphire with a large diamond on each side but she normally wears her wedding and engagement rings on her right hand (in the Greek tradition like her mother) and wears a large blue moonstone on her wedding finger.

Princess Marina
Iam reading a book called DIANA SECRETS AND LIES by NICHOLAS DAVIES. In it there are a couple of paragraphs about Marina and the child she had. It says that neither of her parents went to the reception after her marriage. Does anyone know anymore about this and also do you have pictures of Marina and Zenouska?

I can't believe Princess Alexandra is 70. I did expect some kind of Dukedom for her if I'm honest but I think she knows how much she means to the British people.

They are Princesses of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and styled as "of York" or "of Kent". Princess Michael took her husband's style and title on marriage.
