    It’s amazing to realize Kaiser Wilhelm’s daughter lived until 1980!

      Hardly! Too much wishful thinking, however much those ladies may have wished it so! Maybe they were trying too hard, but without success! Then, as they say in Scotland, “hard cheese!”

    Wonderful review of Viktoria's life. Politically expedient as her marriage might have been, it's hard to believe it wasn't a love match! I'd like to know more about her brothers. I suppose they married into minor or maybe not so minor German nobility. And fought in World War II.

      It must be those Saxe-Coburg genes. Nearly every royal family suddenly looked more beautiful or handsome when those got passed around. Even Queen Victoria was startlingly good-looking when she was younger (though not quite the level of the actress on that show).

      Unless a Woman was a Queen or Empress the role of the Woman was to be unimpressive to support her husband look respectable and add successors to the lineage.
      She actually did her job and fulfill her role.Great Lady and a beautiful Woman.
