Did Marie take an interest in the future George V?
George was in love with Marie however Marie of Edinburgh, her mother, wanted Marie as Queen of a different country so she brokered her to Rumania. Queen Victoria was miffed as she was hoping the love match would work out. You can read about that in "Born to Rule" by Gelardi, Queen Marie's memoirs and "A Fatal Passion" by John Michael Sullivan which has more to do with Ducky than Marie, however they sisters were always close and their lives always intertwined.Did Marie take an interest in the future George V?
Thank you Russo and Markos.Markos,you do seem to know your royal history!
Hello:
To anyone that could answer this question.... Queen Marie was pregnant in 1897, and then went to Coburg to have the baby, does anyone know any more information about it?

Basically yes, she had an affair with Prince Barbu Ştirbey. It was reported that he wad the actual father of Queen Marie's youngest two children, Princess Ileana and Prince Mircea.I am confused... So, Queen Maria, wife of Ferdinand, had an extra marital affair, that may or may not have produced a child?

While there isn't any actual evidence that he was Ileana's father, it is instead likely that he was Mircea's father.
I suppose that - had Ferdinand had doubts about the paternity of his children - he would have recognized them as his own children to avoid scandals. But who knows if he had such doubts.Did the king just call them his so that they would still have the same as their mother?
The fact that one story is the "official" story doesn't necessarily mean that it is true and correct. On the contrary, there are many cases where the rumors are much more correct then the official history.Rumors do not really belong to official history.

Far too old to be Michael - he wouldn't be born for another 5 years.
I don't think the boy is a close relative of Ferdinand I's. His sons would have been too old to be the boy, and his grandsons/nephews too young.
It may have been a nephew of Marie's. Her sisters had sons who would have been the boy's age.
