Grand Duchess Victoria-Melita Feodorvna Of Saxe-Cobourg In The 1920'S

UNSPECIFIED - JANUARY 01: Portrait of Grand Duchess VICTORIA-MELITE FEODOROVNA of SAXE-COBOURG, wife of NICOLAS II's first cousin and closest relative Grand Duke Kirill Vladimirovich ROMANOV of Russia. Born as Princess of Great Britain, she is divorced when she marries the one who declares himself "curator of the Russian throne". NICOLAS II, who disapproved of the marriage, excluded Grand Duke Kirill Vladimirovich ROMANOV from the succession. This did not, however, stop his son Grand Duke Vladimir Kyrillovich ROMANOV from acting as the inheritor to the throne. (Photo by Keystone-France/Gamma-Keystone via Getty Images)
