Nicholas Medforth-Mills (formerly His Royal Highness Prince Nicholas of Romania)

[Cory]

The moment when Mr Medforth Mills couls attend will be probably the Requiem in fromt of the Royal Palace on Saturday.

[Cory]

All those commenting the funetal of Queen Ana spoke about the presence of Mr Medforth Mills and it is clear he is still as popular if not more than last year.

[Benjamin]

Filip Lucian Iorga, author of The Road Home concerning Prince Nicholas' life and what led him to serve Romania, appeared on one of the stations.

Mr Iorga spoke about the fact that it is possible for Nicholas to be reinstated in the line of succession if the Head of the House wishes it.

Another article mentions that the prince flew in to Bucharest on Friday for the funeral.

The King won't change it and after the King it would be more difficult.

[Benjamin]

As Grand Duchess Maria Vladimirovna once quipped to an interviewer: "Who knows? I am not a fortune teller!"

That is my take on this situation.

Anything can happen.

[Cory]

Certainly the only possible continuity in the country for the Family in the future ciuld be linked only with Mr Medforth Mills.

[Dalriada]

It's not beyond the realm of possibility if the state alone decides to hand a new crown to prince Nicolae or his descendants and bypass house rules. The state made It happen in Greece and Spain.

There are only three choices in case of restoration: to respectect the royalist tradition and to offer the Crown to the Hohenzollerns, to offer the Crown to The very popular Nicholas de Roumanie Medforth Mills or to call another Dynasty.

[Cris M]

There's a fourth option, and it's the one that makes most sense: to respect the King's choice and give the crown to his firstborn daughter, Crown Princess Margareta.

But you'll claim she's not popular among the monarchists, right? Too bad you're never able to provide sources to support your claims, not even a single opinion poll. And it wouldn't be the first time you're caught lying to promote your agenda against the Crown Princess and Prince Radu.

That was a very good response, I must say...

[Cory]

There are monarchists that openly ask the King's Family to receive back Mr Medforth Mills. Even this evening at Realitatea Tv there was such a debate.

[maria-olivia]

Cory , Could you translate the debate and the 2 interviews during the office in Curtea de Arges. Thanks

Nicholas of Romania - Last Chance of a Dying Royal House

[Cory]

Very good article that shows how even many of the supporters of the "miguelist line" do not see any future for the King's Family without Mr Medforth Mills.

[Duc_et_Pair]

You seem to have a strange attitude. Either you support the legitimist line of succession or the michaelist line of succession.

What you do looks like: "I support the legitimist line of succession but when Nicholas Medforth-Mills is in play, I switch to the michelist line of succession".

That has nothing to do with a proper monarchy (= a constitutional system in which the head of state is delivered by hereditary succession). Either you support the legitimist line or the other one. Your support seems dependent on a personal preference. X-Factor Romania.

When you want Nicholas Medforth-Mills as head of the House of Romania, you need to support the michaelist line and no longer utter a word about the Hohenzollerns.

[Cory]

I am a convinced supporter of the legitimist Line of Succession but I can't ignore those monarchists that are fans of the "miguelist line" and are in favour of Mr Nicholas Medforth Mills.

[Cory]

Even those supporting the " miguelist line" would probably like Mr Medforth Mills to represent his Family after King Michael.

I doubt it could be summed up better by anyone. Confusion is what confusion does.

I don't know who this 'Miguel' you keep referring to is, but the suggested line of succession introduced by King Michael, then head of the Royal Family of Romania and the last King of the Romanians, is the only one remotely in play in Romania. There is no other line of succession active, or proposed, in Romania, and as one can see from the process around establishing a law eith reference to the Royal House and the government dealing with the firstborn child of the King, Princess Margareta, and not some random member of the Hohenzollern family in Germany, it's clear to all not wearing rose-tinted glasses, where the future of the monarchy in Romania lies.
As the heir is childless, everyone pretty much knows that the future of the Royal Family in one way or another will have to be dealt with fairly soon, and that most likely it will involve re-instating Nicholas in the place after his aunt, bypassing hos mother.
That is my take on the situation, and I believe the delay of the apparent reconciliation is out of respect for the King, his advanced age and declining health being the deciding factors in play here.

Nicholas is the grandson of the King by istso is part of the Royal household. What's the other line?
