“In the next seven years, Princess May was to have three brothers, the eldest being Prince Adolphus. The Tecks were always in humiliating debt. In 1883, when Princess May was sixteen, they were in such “short street,” with bailiffs set to seize their possessions, that to escape their creditors they had run off to Florence. There they fell upon the charity of relations and friends. Only the Queen’s grace permitted them to return to England two years later to live modestly at White Lodge in Richmond Park.”
- Excerpt from Matriarch: Queen Mary and the House of Windsor, photo of the Teck family, minus Mary’s father.
