1942 Alsatian Marina Married 1902
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment of joy and happiness in the lives of His Royal Highness Prince George, Duke of Kent, and his beloved wife, Princess Marina, Duchess of Kent. The image, taken in the mid-1930s, showcases the couple's deep connection and affection for one another, as they are seen playfully interacting with their Alsatian dog during a leisurely stroll through a picturesque garden. Prince George, the second son of King George V, married Princess Marina of Greece and Denmark on November 29, 1934, at Westminster Abbey. Their union brought together two royal families, as Marina was the eldest daughter of Prince Nicholas of Greece and Denmark. The couple's marriage was a source of great joy for the British monarchy, as they were known for their warmth, kindness, and dedication to public service. The photograph was taken during a period of relative peace and happiness in the Duke and Duchess's lives. However, their idyllic existence was soon disrupted by the outbreak of World War II in 1939. The couple played an active role in the war effort, with the Duke serving as a pilot in the Royal Air Force and the Duchess working tirelessly to support the war effort through various charitable organizations. Despite the challenges they faced during this tumultuous period, the Duke and Duchess remained devoted to each other and to their family. Their marriage endured the tests of time, and they went on to have three children together: Princess Alexandra, Prince Michael, and Prince Edward. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of their happy days together, and the deep love and connection that sustained them through both good times and bad.
