Does anyone have any information regarding Grand Duchess Olga's granddaughter Xenia Nielsen? She seems so nice and one can see Empress Marie ever so slightly in her face!

HH Michael Andreivich Romanov, who was the grandson of Zenia, passed away yesterday aged 88.
He lived his later years in Australia.

On the same night that Michael Andrejevitch Romanov died, his 1st cousin prince Michael Feodorovitch Romanov also died, in Paris. He was the son of prince Feodor of Russia and Princess Irina Paley (morganatic branch of the Russian Imp. family). He is the grandson of Grand Duke Alexander Michaelovitch of Russia and Grand Duchess Xenia Alexandrovna of Russia and of Grand Duke Paul Alexandrovitch and Olga Karnovitch.

Prince Michael F. was married twice. He first married Helga Staufenberger. With whom he got a son, Michael (who died in 2001). In 1994 married Maria de las Mercedes Ustrell-Cabani. Now here is where it gets complicated, Maria de las Mercedes got a daughter of Michael F's son, Michael in 1986, called Tatiana. The girl was later adopted by her stepfather & grandfather.

Xenia Nielsen (Kulikovsky) is a retired postman (erm.. -woman ) and lives with her husband in a suburb south of Copenhagen. AFAIK she has four children from three marriages and a number of grand children.

She keeps herself out of the media most of the time; I' ve read somewhere that she gives the occasional talk on the life of her grand mother! The last time she was in the news was at the preview of a big auction of Olga paintings and "Olganiana" in late 2007.

I found a press photo from 2003, when there was an exhibition about
the house of Glücksburg at a gallery (run con amore!) not so
far from my place.

A number of lesser known descendants of King Christian IX attended
the opening. Xenia Kulikovsky Nielsen is left.

I found a link to a big genealogy tree (I think Warren put it in there) and it seemed the Romanovs had quite a few husbands and wives between them.
