George V and Prince Michael of Kent

Not a total surprise considering that they were first cousins, through their mothers being sisters.

I think the resemblance between Prince Michael of Kent and George V is AMAZING. I've noticed that many families show resemblances between grandparents and grandchildren or nieces/nephews to aunts and uncles more commonly than to parents.

I agree with you about about Prince Michael he does resemble his grandfather quite a bit. And to me his son Freddie looks exaclty like his grandfather the Duke of Kent. It's like looking in a mirror. You can really see the family resemblences with the british royals. Zara Phillips looks just like her mother Princess Anne when she was young they could have been sisters. Prince William and Peter Phillips looking alike I will agree with too. To me the also look like their uncle Prince Edward when he was little especially Peter. But of course William and Peter were blessed with hair. lol.

Prince William looks a lot like Diana's mother, Frances, in his facial features. William's hair is thinning almost as quickly as Edward's did. Harry is said by some to resemble Philip, but I don't see it.

William and Peter resemble each other quite a bit, in their face and facial expressions. Even the hair when Peter's was a little longer.

A pic of them both at their respective graduations.

The person that Harry, as a little boy, resembled most to me was Prince Philip's father, Prince Andrew of Greece.

I have a photo somewhere of Prince Andrew of Greece aged about 6 or 7 and at a glance he looks very much like Harry at the same age.

See the this link.

You can also see clearly where Charles gets his ears from!!!


This link is to one of Harry.

Zara is not bad looking, but I don't think Queen Elizabeth was that pretty when young. Her sister Margaret was a little though.

This one, too, Chrissy, has always reminded me of Harry. His great-grandfather Prince Andrew is the child at the lower right in the photo.

Thanks for that.

That's the picture I have in my book but I couldn't find it.

I can certainly see the resemblance.

It is one of the reasons why I don't give any credence to the Hewitt rumours - Harry just looks too much like Philip's father at that age.

I don't have a scanner but a picture of Prince Phillip in a book I just read "Lilibet" looked amazingly like Prince William. Except for the nose-Phillip's was a bit thinner.

I think Princess Eugenie looks alot like the late HM Queen Elizabeth- The Queen Mother, when she was younger.

I think the most beautiful members of the British royal family is the Prince Micheal of Kent's family. If William and Harry were regular guys many people would not see them as attractive as they seem due to being royal. Zara Phillip who is pretty, is average looking. Diana and a young Princess Margaret were attractive. But the Kents overall are the most attractive of the family.

I have seen a few photos of Philip that remind me of William and vice versa. I thought that I was the only one to see any resemblance between William and his father's side of the family.

I also see the resemblance, especially in pictures of young Philip.

the older William and Harry get the more I think they resemble their fathers family, especially Harry. With the execption of the Spencer red in his hair. I used to think that William favoured more of his mother, but that is changing as he gets older.
