Happy Birthday to Queen Anne-Marie of Greece!

In 1964, Princess Anne-Marie married her childhood sweetheart King Constantine II of Greece at the age of 18. The couple have five children; Crown Prince Pavlos, Princess Alexia, Prince Nikolaos, Princess Theodora, and Prince Philippos, and nine grandchildren, and she was Queen of Greece for three years before having to flee the country after a military coup. The family lived in Italy for six years until the monarchy was abolished in 1973, before moving to London, where they lived for 40 years. Recently, King Constantine and Queen Anne-Marie were allowed to return to Greece, and now reside in a Villa in Porto Heli. Related to most royal families, Queen Anne-Marie is regularly seen at foreign royal events. We wish HM a very Happy Birthday and many Happy Returns!
