The photo you are showing is the Princess Alexandra and her husband Angus Ogilvey and fam.

she is Kent by birth but the family is not.

Oh okay, thank you. I'll edit the post - perhaps a mod can move it to an Ogilvy thread (not sure if there is one)? The caption just described the photo as "the Kents" so I made a guess that it was Duke and Duchess as a younger family.

Niece?
Princess Alexandra has only two nieces: Lady Helen Taylor, nee Windsor and Lady Gabriella Windsor, future Mrs. Thomas Kingston.
 
Here Greece and the children from our first cousins call them niece and nephew , but maybe this is not the case for the other countries.
 
In Poland too, but in England it's called "first cousin once removed"
 
I am sorry for Her, we saw such an unsual picture of her during her stay at Caserte.
 
Long time no see....is she well?
 
It was reported in October, on the day of Eugenie's wedding, that she had broken her arm. As a result she didn't attend the wedding and has cancelled her engagements for November. In a woman aged in her early 80s any break can take a longer time to heal than in someone much younger.

According to the Future Engagements page of the British Monarchy website she has engagements in December starting on the 5th with another on 6th, 8th, 11th, 13th and 18th.

The last engagement currently up is for the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester on the 19th so she is amongst the last (but it does only go up until the 21st) and we have to remember that the Wales' branch and Andrew do not announce their engagements on the FE page very often, if at all. (They have collectively one engagement listed - Camilla has one and none of the others - Andrew is currently in Australia so we know that is wrong but ... that is the way of the BRF).
