The family of the Duke of Wellington in England has mentioned it several times before, and their ancestor was Arthur Wellesley who defeated Napoleon at the Battle of Waterloo. Relying on this, Arthur can not only boast for himself for a lifetime, but future generations can basically continue to talk about it.
It is passed to the current master Charles (the first name Arthur, who seems to use a middle name externally) is the ninth generation, and there have been ronins flying over the wallet in the middle, but the overall business is okay, and he is one of the positive representatives of the British aristocracy.
The manor of the Rotten Country.
holiday villas in Spain.
Charles inherited the title in 14 years, and in addition to running his ancestral business and being a rich man, he was also a politician. In his early years, he was in the Conservative Party, but he was not elected to the House of Lords until 15 years ago, and later quit the Conservative Party and became a neutral member of parliament without party affiliation.
Based on his status as a member of the House of Lords of Charles, he attends the opening of Parliament every year, accompanied by his wife Antonia.
This year's congress opened to restore the traditional dress code, in addition to the old vegetable skin, the most eye-catching is Antonia, many ** have been published: Who is this shiny lady?
So let's briefly talk about Antonia's story.
As can be seen from the title, Antonia was a Prussian princess before she married, and later married the Duke of Wellington instead of a German-Austrian nobleman, mainly because she grew up in England, and even her father gave up her German citizenship and became a British naturalized citizen with the surname Prussian.
Antonia's father Frederick is the fourth son of the last German crown prince Wilhelm, and now the Prussian patriarch George wants to call Antonia's cousin.
I feel that Antonia is not very familiar with the relatives of the main branch, and there is a same frame with George when he met at a brand event in 03. Later, George's wedding banquet, relatives and friends, she didn't go.
In those years, there was no shortage of princes, and Frederick was studying incognito in Cambridge at the outbreak of World War II and did not participate in the war, but by the year 40 he was still found out, and was squatted for a period of time in two internment camps in England and Quebec, Canada.
It may be that during the transformation of the Dragon Field Enlightenment, Frederick was sent to drive a tractor and was accidentally injured. At the time of **, he looked at the assistant ** sister Brigitte Guinness on the side.
When you see Guinness, everyone knows that Frederick is a rich woman. The Guinness family is notoriously wealthy, and Brigitte is not a side branch of the horn pimple, but the youngest daughter of the second Earl Rupert, who is the one who started the Guinness Book of World Records in idleness.
So after the end of World War II, it was logical for Frederick and Brigitte to change their nationality after marriage, although he had been breaking off the seized property in Poland, in fact, it must have been the small money given by his wife's mother's Guinness.
There is a high probability that the crown was bought by the Guinness family.
They had five children in the 10 years of their marriage, with Antonia at the bottom.
Originally, he had a good life, until 1966, when Frederick returned to Reinhardhausen Castle for a stroll, which was given to him by his relatives without a descendant. It was normal for Frederick to go for a walk around his house, but Frederick suddenly disappeared and couldn't find him.
Two weeks later, his body was found on the Rhine, the cause of death was drowning, and it is unknown whether it was a suicide or an accident.
The castle now looks like this, and Antonia's brother held it until it was sold in '87, and is currently owned by Kempinski Hotels & Resorts.
As the daughter of the Guinness family, Bourget was widowed with 5 children, and she remarried the officer Anthony the following year and lived to 95 years.
It is unclear how much her father's death affected Antonia, who said she was educated at Cobham Hall School and King's College London, eventually graduating with a bachelor's degree in English.
At the age of 25, she married Charles Wellesley, who was 10 years older. I don't know how I met, but the circle of British high society is not too big, and it is normal to run more parties to see each other.
Antonia was so beautiful back then, and she wore the big crown that Wellington had since the second generation.
After marriage, Antonia gave birth to 5 like her own mother, with an age span of 14 years, and the relationship between husband and wife should be okay.
Glancing at feeding the chickens, the eldest daughter Mary is now unmarried, and Arthur, the heir who was divorced from the stylist of the noble descendants, also remarried at the end of last year (no picture).
They had a friendship with the second prince of Greece, Nicholas, and the second princess, Tatiana.
The second wife's name is Hayley Whitehead, and she should be the one who has been on vacation together for 21 years.
Among the children, only the youngest daughter Charlotte had a big wedding, or because she married a big trench + socialite Alejandro Santo Domingo (Alejandro Santo Domingo).
A 0 jewelry rating is probably a personal preference.
Later, when Charlotte (second from right) went to the Colombian state banquet, she wore the crown worn by her grandmother, which many of her cousins wore when they got married, as well as rock sugar chains and tassel earrings.
Although there are few shows, it is clear that Antonia has no shortage of jewelry, and she has become a blockbuster if she is not a hit.
After many years of marriage, Antonia's main business was to be a noblewoman, of course, she did not need to work hard to make money. The information shows that she has the exclusive title of philanthropist, the president of the Guinness Partners organization, and the relationship between her grandfather.
There doesn't seem to be much else to say, and the Internet report mentioned that the two of them are quite familiar with the current King Charles III, and Antonia has the same frame photo with the tampon.
Charles Tampon Windsor really pursued Wellington Charles's sister Jane (rejected) in the 70s, Jane's statement is that she already has a title, there is no need to add another one, she is never married, and she lives quite chic.
At the coronation, Wellington Charles was in charge of holding the crown in a robe, and Antonia may have to watch TV at home due to the influence of the tampon.
In 16 years, the two went to Brussels and were received by the Belgian king and his wife, the specific reason is unknown.
Looking back at most of Antonia's life, except for her father who died early inexplicably, there don't seem to be any ups and downs and bugs. With the blessing of his grandfather's money, he was not bad for money before he got married, and his mother-in-law's family was not bad for money after he got marriedMy husband is a little older, but he doesn't seem to have any moths, and he is about to reach the age of old when he is full of children and grandchildren.
For a capable and attractive aristocrat, marrying a girl with conditions like Antonia is actually a win-win situation, hello and my whole family.
