I am very happy to see Queen Anne-Marie with her daughters-in-law, but also because I read that she had problems with her knee, she even had to undergo rehabilitation...She has improved a lot, and proof of this is that she is in the snow, that is very good news.

The magazine ¡Hola! also publishes this information about the family, and I loved this photo that it publishes in its article, Into the photo, the Prince Filippos with his mother Queen Anna Maria. A very nice gesture mother and son


More photos of article :

 
Beautiful, she's beloved and cherished by her family.

There will be no decorations in the church, while the wedding will take place to the sounds of a choir singing Byzantine hymns. Instead of crowns, the couple will exchange vows wearing garlands. Finally, it was announced that the Metropolitan of Kissamos and Selinos, Amfilochias will officiate.

Queen Anna-Maria will host a welcome party for guests tonight, the wedding's reception will take place in Piraeus.

Another thing, I have seen the video of Pavlos and MC arriving at the church...And Constantino Alexios when asked, was heard to say that in English, he does not know Greek.

There is a very important absence at this event and that is Chrysi's mother, Agapi Politis, she has not been there because she does not appear in any photograph, and the Greek press has not seen her. why?

And a photo with a neighbor from the island, Dimitris Kallipolotis.


I really liked seeing King Constantine and Queen Anne Marie visiting the islands, and the neighbours shared photos with them. Now Queen Anne Marie visits the islands with her daughter.

Queen Anna Maria, Prince Nikolaos, and Princess Theodora, in the Liturgy of the Resurrection at the Annunciation Monastery, Patmos, 2025.
In the video, we can first see the Queen and Prince Nikolaos approaching to collect the holy light, then, together with the nuns, they head to the courtyard where the liturgy is read. Here, we can see Princess Theodora also present.

 
Yesterday, Crown Prince Pavlos and Prince Nikolaos and his wife Chrysi attended the 50th birthday party of Greek Tourism Minister Olga Kefalogianni.
Chrysi is Olga Kefalogianni's cousin.

Let's see if I understand all this:
The Vardinoyannis family was the one that brought PASOK and the Papandreou family to power. It's a family known for its socialist ideology. Now the "De Gres family" has a member Vardinogiannis who doesn't want to use the title of Princess and she does not want to participate with her mother-in-law in the Easter Mass, she prefers to avoid the photo with her mother-in-law, because the Orthodox Church treats Anna Maria as a Queen and grants her preferential treatment...
Kefalogiannis is Chrysi's cousin...
If Pavlos hadn't accepted the De Gres surname and renounced the monarchy, would Mrs. Kefalogianni, Chrysi's cousin, have posed so close to him?
Andreas Megos always has the habit of copying the news and twisting it a bit... The Karamanlis family was at the party with the De Gres.
Was Nikolaos so desperate for money that he had to get married quickly? And did they recognize the 1994 law, with all its terms, for this marriage?
In 2023, he said he were asking for the repeal of the 1994 law. In 2024, they swore allegiance to the republic, they chose a made-up surname by Michael , they renounced the monarchy, and accepted a Greek passport dated 1974, renouncing their original nationality.....

Im sorry but your post has no logic
Let's go point per point.
- Vardinoyannis family and Pasok. They might have helped for their own interests, but it was not the family V who chased the GRF. Out of this, we are talking about a large family and now we are close to the 3rd generation (Chryssi is the 2nd one) Each member has its own beliefs and political orientation.. they are not one block..
Keep in mind that Late Vardis and his wife (the most proéminent) despite their (hypothetical) antiroyalist orientation... since decades were in acquaintance with many royals ( British, Dutch, and ofcourse Greek ) The couple attended many times Buckingham Palace, etc etc. They met the GRF numerous times before they chose the name De Grece...
Of course Chryssi is much lower profile than them, but If she felt so revolted to appear in a photo in a public place with her mother in law... she would not have wed Nikolaos.

-As for the Minister Mrs Kefaloyannis, why not be in photo? Don't forget she is from a right party not a communist.
-As for accept the republic.. late King Konstantine, years ago had accepted people's decision for the political change to a Republic.

The only possible issue I might see is that Chryssi seems to extremely avoid photos and appearances. This might be an issue in her further life with him, but on the other hand he is not a reigning prince. The only occasions might be the royal family gatherings, such as weddings etc. And at the end if the day.. if she hates.. he will go alone...
Princess Charlene is the wife of a reigning Ruler.. and most of the occasions, he goes alone.
As for desperate need of money.. not very nice for her. She is not an ugly monster half retarded. She could attract by herself... of course with money is better.
 
In the last interview, 2016 interview on SKAI, King Constantine stated that he will not give up defending the monarchy, he believes it is viable, and as proof, he spoke the most stable countries in Europe are monarchies. He said- that it is currently (2016) not viable in Greece because there are no values towards the monarchy, but as he says, values change and he does not lose hope about it, the future is uncertain.
Constantine was aware that Greece was a Republic, but he did not give up defending the monarchy, and he stated this publicly. He had never accepted the content of the 1994 Law. His children, however, as of December 2024, renounced the monarchy and its defense, and they recognized the republic as the unalterable form of the Greek state, in writing, and this was made public.

Marianna Vardinogiannis is a different matter. She liked being surrounded by royals, especially Charles of England, and the royal family of the Netherlands, they were neighbors in Greece. However, family is a different matter. They have not been defenders of the monarchy in Greece... nor of the Royal family. As I say, Marianna is a different matter...

I am absolutely certain that Chrysi Vardinogiannis will attend Danish Royal Family events in the future, wearing a beautiful dress and a tiara. Then she will be a Princess..... But I am absolutely certain that in Greece, Anna Maria will be Anna Maria, the title "queen" will be superfluous, for her and Nikolaos De Gres (as can be deduced from what he has signed).

The fact that Kefalogiannis is from a political party, not communist, does not justify his closeness, NOW, to the Prince. In fact, her party was the one that didn't consider Constantine the former head of state, and never repealed the 1994 law, even though they claimed it was unconstitutional ....and called them Glubsburg and foreigners... Of course, Constantine Mitsotakis was the exception, but he died years ago... and in today's Greek right, nothing remains of him, except that his son is Prime Minister, but with a different way of thinking.

I seem to recall that the communist leader of Kavala welcomed King Constantine with a party and declared him his friend in 2009... And that Tsipras spoke cordially with King Constantine at the Athens airport, calling him the former king, and even accepting advice from the king... New Democracy is not equal to monarchy, on the contrary perhaps it has been the worst thing that could have been against the Royal family
 
Olga Kefalogiannis and Pavlos have met in the past at other events. It's obvious they're closer now because of Nikolaos's marriage to her cousin, Chrysi. Perhaps the most striking thing about the party is Pavlos and Nikolaos's meet to the Karamanlis family.

Greek shipowners, in general, have always been involved in politics. They have sought to finance political parties to govern in favor of their companies and economic interests. For this reason, the people in Greece don't hold them in much regard.
I don't think that if Chrysi were seen more or less at parties and events, the Greeks would appreciate her more. No, I think she's a member of a shipowner family, heavily involved in Greek politics, that has been at odds with the people over business interests, and this isn't going to change that....


Regarding the Royal Family, Queen Anna Maria is the only one who hasn't been subject to the 1994 law. She refused to accept the content of that law. The republic cannot be a political form of an unalterable state for a woman who is the granddaughter, daughter, wife, and sister of Kings...
Regarding her children:
Pavlos said on ANT1 a month ago that he is Pavlos De Grece and that he is not a Prince; it was Mayor Mani who said this.

Later, he accredited himself as Pavlos De Grece at the International Olympic Committee Meeting. I was particularly surprised that he accredited himself as "De Grece" because the International Olympic Committee recognizes royal titles. Furthermore, he posted the accreditation on his Instagram account so everyone could see that he is not Prince Pavlos, he is Pavlos De Grece. His mother was accredited as "HM Queen Anne Marie".


It is not the Vardinogiannis family who does not recognize the Royal Family, it is the royal family, except for Queen Anna Maria, who does not want to be identified by royal titles. By the way, although they reject the titles and existence of the Royal House ( on the official Web in greek version it says, the ancient Royal Family), Filippos and nina seem not to have been alluded to and identify themselves as Prince and Princess in the Arab Emirates.
 
On April 28, 2025, the Athenians Association celebrated 130 years since its founding.
Present at this event were Queen Anne-Marie, Crown Prince Pavlos and Prince Nikolaos, who are also members of the Athenians Association.

NO, ANDREAS MEGOS NO, IT IS A NEWS OF THE OFFICIAL WEB:

130 Years – The Athenians Association

www.greekroyalfamily.gr www.greekroyalfamily.gr

Look how they've identified themselves in Greek and English. Without the title and with the surname De Grece.

"On April 28, 2025, one of Athens' oldest and most significant institutions, the Athenians Association, marked 130 years since its founding.

In an evening filled with historical resonance and quiet emotion, members and friends of the Association gathered to pay tribute to the city and to those who, with respect and dedication, have kept its identity alive over time.

ΗΜ Queen Anne-Marie attended the event, accompanied by her sons, Pavlos and Nikolaos De Grèce , who are also members of The Athenians Association. HM Queen Anne-Marie presented the Association’s Gold Medals to three distinguished individuals: Aspa Zaimi, Napoleon Nezer, and Ioannis Oikonomakis."

AND IN GREEK:
...Παύλο και Νικόλαο Ντε Γκρες.

130 Χρόνια – Σύλλογος των Αθηναίων

www.greekroyalfamily.gr www.greekroyalfamily.gr

Only Queen Anna Maria, who has not recognized the Republic as the unalterable form of the Greek state, since she has not accepted the law of 1994, is QUEEN ANNA MARIE, in English and in Greek.


And this is not from a monarchist follower, the news is from the OFFICIAL WEBSITE
 
Isn't the woman next to Nikolaos in the pictures his new wife, Chryssi? She's not named in the stories
