Grand Duchesses Olga (R) and Tatiana (L) of Russia serving as nurses during WWI, c. 1916.

The job of nursing wounded soldiers during WWI had differing effects on the two Grand Duchesses. They both enjoyed talking to other nurses and the wounded soldiers. However, the stress of caring for the wounded took its toll on Olga, who was already prone to being moody and sensitive. Meanwhile, Tatiana enjoyed caring for the soldiers and was devoted to caring for them.

Actually, it is very sad that we haven’t seen the King wearing Scottish Crown. The last monarch who was crowned with Scottish Crown Jewels was King Charles II in 1651. Since then Scottish Crown Jewels haven’t been used in coronations. Instead, it’s kept on a cushion and looked at or symbolically touched.
When Queen Elizabeth was crowned in Edinburgh in 1953, she also didn’t wear the Scottish Crown. She arrived at the service in normal clothes. In comparison, King Charles III recently came out for a coronation in robes of the Order of Thistle.

𝑶𝑻𝑫 (8/17) in 1877, 𝑷𝒓𝒊𝒏𝒄𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝑴𝒂𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒍𝒅𝒆 𝒐𝒇 𝑩𝒂𝒗𝒂𝒓𝒊𝒂, later Princess Ludwig of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, was born in Lindau, Bavaria.

Mathilde Marie Theresia Henriette Christine Luitpolda was the sixth child and third daughter of King Ludwig III of Bavaria and his wife, Maria Theresia of Austria-Este. She was the favorite daughter of her father, but she had a strained relationship with her mother.

In May 1900, she married Prince Ludwig of Saxe-Coburg & Gotha. The couple had two children.

Mathilde died of tuberculosis in August 1906, just 11 days before her 29th birthday.

Funny story:

In 1995, Queen Elizabeth was heard to remark that the worst aspect of the Parker Bowles divorce was that she had got Danny back. Danny was a corgi given to Camilla and Andrew Parker Bowles by the Queen in the early 1990s. She had previously given them a corgi called Windsor Flame who was wonderful, intelligent and brave. Danny had none of these qualities. He was short in looks, legs and temper. After the divorce he returned to Windsor, where he spent the rest of his life, very happy, in the care of Mrs Nancy Fenwick, who was unofficially the keeper of the Queen’s dogs.

Poor Danny! 🤔😂
