So she presumably took the children to return to Greece but was stopped by the security guards in the airport, who made it clear that while she was free to go wherever she wanted, her children would not go with her.

I will try to find the book I've read this in, although I'm under the impression it was repeated in more then one place.


Not that I ever believed this rumour myself, I just wanted to clarify the mistery of the airport princess.
Maria Teresa would be my first idea. At least I remember such a story. The reason was her horrible relationship to her mother-in-law. Unfortunatly I cannot find a link as proof. Any ideas?
