News about Prince Michael

Prince Edward (pictured), currently the oldest working member of the royal family, marked his 89th birthday at his home in the grounds of Kensington Palace today, with the Duchess of Kent, 91, seated in a wheelchair (pictured inset) next to him, as the couple enjoyed the recital of Happy Birthday by pipers. The Duke was joined by his son, Lord Nicholas Windsor, and his younger brother Prince Michael of Kent for the occasion.

The royal (pictured inset), who was a first cousin to Prince Philip and a renowned writer and historian under the name Michel De Gres, passed away at a hospital in Athens, it was announced on Sunday. Crown Princess Marie Chantal, Crown Prince Pavlos, and Queen Anne Marie (pictured from L to R) cut elegant figures in all-black attire, with Marie opting for a belted short sleeved shirt dress and suede pumps.

He could have been king of at least three different countries, but instead he turned his back on royal life to party with the likes of Mick Jagger and Andy Warhol and marry the woman of his dreams. As a royal, Prince Michael of Greece's pedigree was second to none - he was the first cousin of three kings of Greece, Britain's Prince Philip and Princess Marina, Duchess of Kent. The Prince, whose death at the age of 85 was announced at the weekend, escaped the stuffy confines of court life by falling in love with gifted artist Marina Karella. To marry her he was obliged to give up his succession rights - he was third in line to the Greek throne - and step back from royal duties. He didn't care. 'It was love at first sight,' he said, 58 years later. 'I was dancing with her at a party, and I just looked at her. It was like a revelation - it was her and no one else.'

Prince Michael of Greece, who was Prince Philip's first cousin, has died at the age of 85. The royal, who was a renowned writer and historian under the name Michel De Gres, passed away at hospital in Athens , it was announced today. The last remaining grandson of George I with a lineage to the House of Bourbon through his mother's side of the family, is set to be buried in the Greek capital on Thursday. He was well known for his devotion to his wife Marina Karella and his turbulent personal life which saw him tragically lose his father at the age of just one. Despite being an acclaimed painter and sculptor, as Marina was not a member of the royal family he had to give up his rights to the Greek throne in order to marry her in 1965.

As the Paris 2024 Olympic opening ceremony begins this evening, talented athletes from around the world will be preparing to compete for their country. Watching tonight's ceremony will be Princess Anne, who was herself a competitor at the 1976 Games in Montreal. But she is far from the only royal to have competed at the Olympics. Anne's daughter Zara went one better than her by actually winning a medal - a silver at the 2012 London Olympics as part of the British Equestrian team. Zara did not quite match her father Captain Mark Phillips, who won gold at the 1972 games in Munich. The Monaco royals are just as talented, with husband and wife Prince Albert and Princess Charlene having both taken part in the games, in bobsledding and swimming respectively. And King Constantine II of Greece won gold in sailing at the 1960 Olympics in Rome.

Bigi Jackson was seen for the first time after it was revealed that his father Michael Jackson was over $500 million in debt at the time of his death in 2009 . The 22-year-old youngest of three children - who is formally known as Blanket - enjoyed a casual outing in Calabasas on Tuesday morning. Bigi, born via surrogate in 2002, was the baby Michael infamously dangled over a fourth-floor hotel balcony in Berlin to show him off to the fans below. Now he has grown into a relatively private young man in comparison to his older siblings Prince, 27, and 26-year-old Paris.

As he turns 82 today, Prince Michael of Kent will likely be celebrating in a low-key fashion with close family. In recent months he and his wife Princess Michael (right, with her husband in 2022) have been supporting their daughter Lady Gabriella Windsor (pictured left with her father on her wedding day) after the death of her husband Thomas Kingston in February. In the weeks after her tragic loss, Lady Gabriella moved back in with her parents at their Kensington Palace apartment. Her father is the first cousin of the late Queen Elizabeth, the brother of the Duke of Kent, a grandson of King George V and a cousin-twice-removed of Russia 's last Tsar, Nicholas II. In his younger years, Prince Michael was a competitive rower and bobsledder and was even on the reserve list for Britain's bobsleigh team (inset, competing for Great Britain in 1971) at the 1972 Winter Olympics. But unlike his daughter's impeccable public image, Prince Michael - who bears a striking resemblance to Tsar Nicholas - has hit the headlines for the wrong reasons in the past.

Michael Jackson was over $500 million in debt at the time of his death in 2009. The King of Pop owed money to more than 65 creditors when he died age 50 from cardiac arrest, according to court documents filed on Friday, June 21, per People.  The documents include a petition from estate executors seeking back pay from 2018, relating to the late singer's now $2 billion estate.

EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: Are the Royal Family taking 'recycling' of outfits to new heights?

Princess Maria Chiara of Bourbon Two Sicilies, 19, has one of Europe's most extravagant titles - now the Italian 'It-girl' wants the outfits to match and was seen wearing one of her own creations this week.

At last, a little light is allowed into the magic, writes Robert Jobson. A smiling Princess of Wales is seen and filming herself out on a shopping trip with William near their Windsor home. So much for the daft doubters. For the first time, a couple who like to shield their personal information didn't mind being photographed - by a member of the public on their iPhone who had noticed them in the Windsor Farm Shop's bread aisle.

The late Queen Elizabeth's 80-year-old first cousin is not officially a working royal, but she has been more popular than ever. Prince Michael, the grandson of King George V and his cousin, was reportedly more popular than his older brother, the Duke of Kent, despite being unable to work. That's at least partially due to the various headline-making scandals of recent years, including much-criticized company interests in Russia and unashamed flogging of tacky royal souvenirs on US television. But it's the saga of his marriage to Princess Michael of Kent (pictured left), which has deservedly been dubbed 'Princess Pushy' by Princess Anne, that has really raised his profile.

It's impossible to remember a time when Baroness Marie-Christine von Reibnitz was not Princess Michael of Kent, as it is today. Prince Michael, a cousin of late Queen Elizabeth II, was born in 1978 and has been a public figure ever since, known for her striking Germanic appearance as well as the 'Princess Pushy' moniker, which attracted more attention over time. Marie-Christine had been married once before, but Thomas Troubridge was the late Thomas Troubridge. They exchanged vows for this brief period of time at Chelsea Old Church in 1971, where ushers announced that the couple had "a raging dispute" in the vestry. Marie-Christine and Prince Michael were divorced six years after Marie-Christine first became involved with him.
