“I don't like when people say "Oh, Maria Nikolaevna should have married Louis Mountbatten". He was a terrible person. A suspected pedophile, a manipulator who always wanted to influence the royal family for his own personal gain and a colonizer. Maria Nikolaevna deserved better.” - Submitted by Anonymous

The Husbands of the Four Graces
Some time ago, I read a very interesting book about Queen Victoria's Hessian Granddaughters (Victoria, Elizabeth, Irene, and Alix.) The title was "The Four Graces," and ever since I read it, that is the way I think about the daughters of Grand Duke of Louis IV of Hesse and by Rhine and the beautiful princess Alice of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, second daughter of Queen Victoria.
These young women were among the most marriageable princesses of their generation. They were beautiful, accomplished and Queen Victoria's granddaughters. There was no need to look for husbands for them. Among their suitors could be found future Kaisers, Tsars and Kings of England even though it was well known that any or all of the princesses could be carriers of hemophilia (inherited from their august grandmother Victoria.) Their sons might be bleeders. One of their brother's had been, therefore Princess Alice, their mother, had been a carrier.
The four men they married appear in the first photograph above; one marquess, one prince, one grand duke, and one Emperor (all of them very handsome):
👑Louis Mountbatten, first Marques of Milford Heaven (the man all the way to the left on the picture) married Princess Victoria Alberta Elisabeth Mathilde Marie of Hesse and By Rhine. Victoria and Louis had two sons and neither one of them had hemophillia.
👑The Hohenzollern Prince and brother of the German Keiser, Prince Heinrich of Prussia (the man to the right of Mountbatten in the photograph) married Princess Irene Luise Marie Anne of Hesse and By Rhine. They were first cousins since Heinrich was the son of Queen Victoria's eldest daughter, the Princess Royal, who was the older sister of Princess Alice. They had three sons. Two out of the three had hemophilia. One died in childhood of causes related to that disease.
👑 Grand Duke Sergei Alexandrovich of Russia (the man to the right of Prince Heinrich) married Princess Elizabeth Alexandra Louise Alice of Hesse and by Rhine. Sergei and Elizabeth had no children.
👑The soon-to-be Tsar Nicholas II of Russia married Alix Viktoria Helene Luise Beatrix. Alix had one son, and he had hemophilia. (gcl)

Charlie Chaplin and Louis Mountbatten at Pickfair (home of Mary Pickford & Douglas Fairbanks)where Charlie made the film "Nice and Friendly" as a wedding present for Louis and his wife Edwina in 1922.
Louis Mountbatten born a prince as the great grandson of Queen Victoria eventually becoming Earl Mountbatten of Burma. He was the uncle of Prince Phillip and "honorary grandfather" of now reigning King Charles III and they were extremely close, Charles devastated when he was assassinated in 1979.

“it disgusts me how the media has so much to say about Prince Andrew but is all quiet when it comes to all of Mounbatten's dirty secrets. There is a lot of evidence and accounts of him with young boys. He was very sick.” - Submitted by Anonymous
“Queen Mum was right to try and keep Charles away from Louis Mountbatten. The man was known to have several accusations and rumors against him concerning little boys, grooming, and young courtiers. He was a sex pest. What is it with Charles always linked to pedos somehow?” - Submitted by Anonymous
