That's a hard question,we know that Maria's son started not so far some affairs with the petroleum Russian company "Nornikel".

The Imperial Family has not so much money because the properties confiscated in 1917 are not given back.

Very touching indeed!

Grand Duchess Maria remains faithful to the hystoric heritage of the Imperial House.It is rather difficult for somebody who does not believe in the monarchy to understand that.

Maria Vladimirovna is just one of the dozens of the Romanovs' descendants, Cory.
Check out the number of them at the official site of the Romanov family Association yourself.
And read this General Assembly Decision from January 1st, 2011.

The Romanovs' family association does much more for Russian culture anf Russian people than M.V. Romanova. Not with the great pomp, but every day, and with modesty and dignity.

I am not interested in what says an associatian of russian nobles descendents from morganatic marriages.I am interested in what the imperial House says.Grand Duchess Maria is the Head of the Imperial House and if a group of nobles do not recognize her that's their own problem.

Good for you.
Are you at least interested in knowing the truth, Cory?
This is not a matter of religious faith, to believe or not.
There is no any laws in Russian Federation which consider Romanova Maria Vladimirovna 'the head', 'the Empress' and so on. There is no metion of this in our Constitution. She is a plain citizen of Russia, that's all.
The point is that there is a plenty of the Romanovs in Russia and worldwide who are modest, hardworking and not claiming any priviledges for themselves.
Regards.

In a republican Constitution should be explained the role of the Imperial Family?
Nobody denies there are nobles whose ancestors were members of the imperial Family but had morganatic marriages.These russian nobles with the surname Romanowsky/Romanoff could do a lot for the motherland.

Perhaps other people are not interested in PR based on the blood, which appears to be a favourite pastime of this particular section of the Romanovs.

When you do not like a document/article you find it "not accurate"...

Grand Duchess Maria paid a visit this year to the supreme Court:

It's really lovely to see more of Her Imperial Highness. In recent years she seems to be everywhere!

AristoCat · #**255** 08-29-2011, 08:01 PM

She certainly is popping up more in public, along with her son. They used to be so much more private and you would never hear of them, but now they're going to all sorts of places, the highest profile being the Monaco nuptials.

AristoCat · #**256** 09-10-2011, 05:23 PM

I wonder if hte Romanovs would not have a problem with Georgi being Head, as long as Maria backed off and let them move on.

BeatrixFan · #**257** 09-10-2011, 06:05 PM

What do you mean by backing off? Moving on?

lucien · #**258** 09-10-2011, 06:14 PM

The never ending story aka comic relief:"The woman from Madrid"..

Mainly backing off from antagonizing the rest of the Romanovs through promoting herself and Georgi at the expense of everyone else. Her terms seem to be that the rest of the Imperial Family kowtow to her and her son, on her own delusional terms.
