Yeah because the daughters would eventually get pissed and tell off their fathers to not interfere in their in private life. Why is it always the man that gets the blame? Pls think more deeply before putting blame on fathers out there and not accusing anything randomly
Philip did not have a Nazi background, three of his sisters married Nazi sympathisers who followed Hitler when he came to power. He was a Prince of Greece and Denmark, his mother was a Battenberg, sister of Lord Louis Mountbatten, Philip's uncle.
Also his mother was and still is a hero and was courageous against the nazis which is why she is buried in a place of honour in Israel, she saved many Jew's by using her royal connections.
"I'm not a German, I'm as English as Queen Victoria"! "So your father's German, you're half German and you married a German"? Captain Edmund Blackadder to Captain Darling during an interrogation, from Blackadder Goes Forth, BBC
Yes, German via one of James I's granddaughters. Mary Queen of Scots--James I of England--Elizabeth Stuart--Sophia, Electress-Consort of Hanover The UK law restricted the succession to Sophia's Protestant heirs. George V renounced all of the family's German titles in 1917. He changed the family name from Saxe-Coburg to Windsor.
@@alok26k68 Very wrong. He hated the title, attention, and duties as much as princess Elizabeth (at the time) did. He wanted to be a full time career-admiral of his own Navy fleet but was obviously denied that because he would have other duties and restrictions being not only a British prince but even more so, the prince consort of the Queen of the UK.
Prince Phillip married her for power he cheated on her throughout the first 20-30 years of their marriage and she cheated on him too. Granted she didn’t cheat until she found out he was cheating and she only did it to try and upset him. She did it with some guy who trained her horses or something don’t remember details. He was a philander though and idk if he ever got his act together tbh. Thought I do think he eventually came to love Elizabeth he certainly didn’t at the start of their marriage.

Because he was not very cashed up. His dad was a big spender, his mother was committed to a mental hospital and three of his sisters of minor German royalty who joined the Nazis. Philip couldn't be held responsible for his much older sisters choices.
@@cgkennedy Exactly! I went through the same type of rubbish at school in the sixties. Being labelled all sorts of crap just because my name is Germanic - when it's actually from Rotterdam! - and how could I have anything to do with decisions made in a foreign country three decades before I was even born?! It's not even a metamer!
Prince Phillip did NOT have a nazi background. He was obliged to be present at a couple of events and was extremely unimpressed and concerned by their attitude. He could not express that at the time for diplomatic reasons, but when war came he was right up there volounteering to fight them as soon as he was allowed.
It was the Queen mother that didn’t like Philip because he was Greek and had no money. She thought she was above everyone else even though she was basically a commoner and not of Royal blood.
Yeah, the Queen Mum was a tough old bird lol. She came across to the people as a doddering cutesy pie granny, but she was very shrewd, ruthless one could say, and stayed on Queen Elizabeth's back throughout her reign until she passed away. She was also instrumental in setting up the disastrous marriage between Charles and Diana along with Diana's ambitious grandmother, Ruth, Lady Fermoy who was just as power hungry as the Queen Mum. What a family of wolves...
@@DarlingNikki2False. Diana actively chased after Charles. She was basically the only woman in Charles's social circle that actively gunned after him. Diana's grandmother warned her against the marriage knowing Diana wouldn't fit in but she was set on becoming the Princess of Wales. The Queen Mother just wanted Charles to get married to anyone acceptable. She didn't care who.
Well Hitler called her the most dangerous woman in Europe , so good for her I say. She stuck by te e King all through the war in London , when she could have left for Canada with the princesses.
huh? this is the same woman that refused to leave london during the blitz. people who actually knew her said themselves that she disliked philip because he was brusque and had bad manners.
I would say a lot of marriages would be happier if they did like the royals which is to lie about how happy they are, and to live in completely separate homes.
Yet the Queen blocked her son's choice of wife and selected who she wanted... so many people were hurt and unhappy: she should have supported her son, not interfered.
Philip’s much elder sisters all married high-ranking Nazis but he was raised almost entirely in England. Ironic that he was considered “not Royal enough”. Born a Prince of both Greece and Denmark, he like his wife was a great-grandchild of Queen Victoria. I think the main concern over Philip was not his background or the age difference or the fact that he and Lilibet were 3rd cousins. The fear was that the very domineering Earl Mountbatten, Philip’s uncle, proposed to install his nephew as King with Elizabeth only a puppet ruler. That’s why he insisted so hardcore that the name of the Royal house be changed to Mountbatten-Windsor. If anyone including her parents and her intended fiancé thought ER would be a pushover, she schooled them. She fell in love with him at 13 and never wavered in her choice. Interesting that her parents didn’t tell her no outright. Lilibet was a steely character and got her way in the end. Philip was an extremely energetic and intelligent consort and his Wueen never stopped looking at him like she did when she was a young girl. If her elders wanted Lilibet to choose someone else, they ought to have chosen someone ugly to show the Princess around the Royal Britannia Naval College.
he never had a nazi background, his sisters married germans who were in the forces in WW2 he was prince of greece and denmark, His mother was Princess Alice who was born at Windsor Castle , she was a great grand daughter of Queen Victoria
My father couldn’t stand my husband. He wanted control over me. Ok, my husband is 14 years older and had lived a hedonistic lifestyle. It turned out he was the loyal one. My father was a philanderer and a bully. It only came out after he died.
Sorry to hear of those difficulties you had, but perhaps your father was projecting his own failings onto your husband. It's not uncommon for that to happen. I do hope that you are much happier now...
P Philip wasn’t British he was Greek & Danish through his father. His mother was German but a great-granddaughter of Queen Victoria. P Philip fought for Britain in WW2 (my father served with him) he had no Nazi sympathies or associations unlike the husbands of two of his sisters who were German & Nazis. To link PP to having “Nazi links” is false & a slur on his war record & the medals he was awarded. He may not have been George VI first choice but it wasn’t because of his war record or he has links to the Nazis! 👎🤮🇬🇧
His family was part ofa germanic -austrian lineage which is.why they (Britain royals) became 'house of Windsor' to break away from war-time stigma attached to Germany. They lived happily ever after. 🌹🏴❤️🇺🇸
Prince Philip DID NOT have a Nazi background! He was the Queens ‘rock’ and the love of her life! Wonderful husband, father and grandfather and great humanitarian!
As I remember, his sisters married Germans who became Nazis. I think one of them might have become Nazi herself. None of the sisters were invited to Philip's wedding.
She did not ruin her sister's life. Elizabeth wanted Margaret to marry Townsend, but couldn't because it wasn't allowed to marry someone if their former spouse was still alive. Do some research before saying things like that smh
@@railfan0083 No need to research, these rules are the most despotic and idiotic I've ever heard of. Anne married for the second time despite everything.
@@adonisblair by the time Anne was of age Elizabeth was already able to change the rules. The Queen can’t just change the rules it has to be strategically thought out and played as it’s a political game.
@Railfan008 But she misled Margaret apparently by saying they could marry after 2 years when Mwrgaret turned 25, only for that to still not be approved. The Queen seemed a bit selfish because everything had to be about her, she even got jealous when Margaret got more attention on royal tours and when Charles and Diana had success overseas.
He didn't have a "Nazi background". That's just being sensationalist. He may have had connections prior to the war but was definitely not a Nazi sympathiser.
Philip was a Greek and danish prince, he had German ancestry. He was a naturalized Briton. He had a German last name originally before it was changed to Mountbatten and even this was originally Battenberg.
The so called Windsors are extremely German,until this day. In fact, the German has begun to wear away as more and more of the young ones marry Brits or even just mix with Poms and learn then take on some of their more vexing habits.
@@gidzmobug2323 - He was born a prince and was in charge of his own country - a king (even though that’s not what he was), as a result of his status he had to rejoice all claims to his country. That way the two would not be competing with each other. After all she would be his wife and of lower rank in his country and the British people would not have tolerated that. As well as making Philip pay any debts his country felt his family owed them. Did not want England to have to pay them. No, he wanted a clear understanding that Elizabeth was in charge wherever they were.
They didnt like him because he had no problem standing up to them regarding how they treated elizabeth and how she listened to him as an advisor ...especially by her mother who wore the pants and the king did what he was told. The queen mother favoured margaret to the degree she was , in private , given precedence over elizabeth in most matters ...to make up for not being the heir ...... Margaret got the love and favour and elizabeth was browbeaten with duty . The only time she got anything else was in public for family image ,when the king was away from his wifes influence and he really loved her but knew she had to prove her devotion to her subjects thanks to edwards flighty crap hurting the royal standing , when she worked during the war where she was just elizabeth...and when she was with philip and when she had a couple of years just to be his wife till cjarles came along then queen mother stepped in for control again..he gave up so much to be with elizabeth. Despite the mechanations of the queen mother and the dodgy mountbatten who wanted a relative on the throne to control which he almost had with charles .
His sisters married into German aristocracy and at least two of his brothers-in-law were in the nazi party. Philip on the other hand left Germany, after the headmaster of his school was forced out of Germany for being jewish. He finished his education in Britain and was in navy college at 18. His mother, living in Greece during WW2, was hiding a jewish family.
I think she was the one who really disliked him in a malicious way and not in a more parental way as I'm sure Elizabeth's father did. He likely knew Philip had a dashing figure reputation with the ladies and didn't want his daughter to get hurt while the Queen Mum was just a snotty old bird lol.
Since 2013 & the the abolition of male preference primogeniture it’s totally redundant. Only a “spare” will be heir presumptive but only if the monarch doesn’t have children.
The Princess Elizabeth did not abdicate. She became Queen after the death of her father. Where did you find your information? Certainly not from actual history
Prince Philip did not have a Nazi background. His four sisters all married German princes who all joined the Nazi party, some like Berthold of Baden reluctantly. The prince himself was close to his British relatives. His maternal grandmother Victoria and maternal uncle George (2nd Marquess of Milford Haven) paid for his education. Prince Philip's headmaster was the German Jew Kurt Hahn, who founded Salem and then Gordonstoun schools.
He had no Nazi background, and King George was always going to eventually consent, and they were third cousins. They too distant for this to be considered incest.
Two of Philip’s older sisters married German princes, and Philip, a minor, was consigned briefly to their care while his mother was under treatment for mental illness (his father having washed his hands of his family), and after a relatively brief period of exposure to Naziism while enrolled in a private school, Philip was put into the care of his maternal uncle Lord Louis Mountbatten and moved permanently to the UK. It’s an unfortunate choice of terms to describe Philip’s exposure to Naziism in its early years as his “Nazi background” which suggests active involvement by choice. He was an abandoned child being shuffled between relatives, hardly an enrolled member of the Hitler Youth. And his service to King and Country during WWII speaks for itself. George VI couldn’t have chosen a more suitable husband for his Heiress-Apparent (Margaret would have been the Heiress-Presumptive at that point in time) from among the available younger sons of still-reigning houses of royal rank. Philip, at least, was less the by-product of German culture than the king was himself; the Greek royal house had no surname, hence no need to obscure the obvious from fear of a downturn in public favor.
@@lisabrown6361 A surname, obviously; the one they bore as members of Denmark’s royal house. But according to the Greek Constitution the Royal Family had no official surname, thus Greek passports were issued to members of the ruling family by titles only. This led to several diplomatic issues during periods when titles were abolished and passports voided after of various coups d’etat that perforated the reigns of Constantine I and George II, and created issues during the exile of Constantine II. The Greek military and republican juntas didn’t care to accord the former monarch and his family the style “of Greece” as doing so was out of step with the mischaracterization of their former royals as foreign and not Greek.
Well Duke you made it to heaven just north of me down my street .I love it I once saw you holding your chiuaua and I saw you washing your car on Highland avenue and most happily saw you with the duchess of Gloucester at Barnes and noble on Rosecrans street in point Loma keep on living my darling The Lord God's gift accepted of well the gift of everlasting life .Thank you God .May you please at your pleasure and your leisure bless us all !
He was a married man and it was scandalous! She could have married him but she had to give up her title and she wasn’t prepared to do that! In those days divorce was frowned upon and only allowed through infidelity!
This Edward, Margaret, Andrew and Harry are all bad bloods but gain sympathy most from the people who just naively believe their “love” story while enjoying royal perks without royal duty. The very same people who hate the royal institution and working royals for wasting tax payer money.
Only the head of the monarch can approve of marriage for people within about 6 royals in line to the throne. So if he didn't like him and didn't approve of him they wouldn't of been approved to marry.
The King had just as strong a Nazi background. In the case of Prince Phillip his only ties were that his sisters had married Nazis while living in Germany. The King meanwhile had an older brother who was willing and eager to conspire with Nazis in an attempt to take over the throne that he gave up earlier for "the woman he loved". Oh and that "woman he loved" also was admiring of the Nazis. So The King's brother and sister in law actively tried to hand over the whole of the commonwealth to Hitler.
Cause their lives don't belong to themselves. They are property of the State, they exist entirely to serve the people and to represent in fact the country. It's the crown, not the person who uses it.
@@ViniciusSilva-hu4fi That is the propaganda they use to be able to grift from people. Without good propaganda, the people may not want to support them any more.
@@rustythegreatandpowerfulla2676 In fact it could be, but I don't believe this is the true background. As a Hegel's reader, I may say the king is the only person who can stand for the State, cause he isn't elected. The State shall stay despite the government, shouldn't be disputed, and only hereditarity can stand for this.
@@goldiegold7824 I agree with you in some parts, we tends to believe that the royals are not humans cause of their role. I also agree that Charles should have been allowed to marry Camilla since the beginning, but this are things of these decades, it will pass... And the monarchy, by what it is, will survive. What I'm trying to say is that a royal marriage can't be only love, it shall be, in first, duty and service. It isn't a private matter, it's a matter of State.
His Uncle set that up making sure his nephew met a young Elizabeth who got too see a good-looking handsome boy with no shirt swimming around. Elizabeth II was hooked. The other Royal family believed Him to Be too Pretty for Elizabeth they wanted someone dreary and well-brought up for England's standard's.
He wasn't a nazi at all. His sisters married nazi military men. The British Royal family had German roots except for George Vl wife Elizabeth who was Scottish. Elizabeth 's brother was killed in WWI so she became anti German. But Elizabeth ll was determined. He sure was handsome!
There were also concerns about Philip’s proximity to the Greek throne. For a good while he was third in line to the Greek throne behind King Paul’s son Constantine and Paul’s uncle George (who’s son Peter had been invalidated from the succession due to his marriage)
Wrong Info my Dude. He had No Nazi Background All his sisters married German Nazis who followed Hitler in the Forces, He's a prince at birth with royal blood of Greece and Denmark, His ancestry of German Not British and Fought For Britain In The Navy In WW2. Both Elizabeth and Philip are related to Monarchs Queen Victoria of UK and King Christian IX Of Denmark. All Dads Will Disapprove of Their Daughters Boyfriends Because No one Will Ever Loved Their Daughters More Than Them And Will Feel Like They Are Losing Their Little Girls To Their Boyfriends. Remember A Daughter's First Love Is Her Dad. All Of Them Loved Prince Prince Philip Except For Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother. Back Then Queen Elizabeth II was still princess Elizabeth because her father King George VI was still Alive and On The British Throne when She married Prince Philip, She didn't even abdicated because she wasn't even Queen as yet, She Became Queen Elizabeth II when her father King George VI had died in February 6 1952. Philip gave up all his Greek and Danish royal titles when he married Elizabeth and she fought for him to be Prince Philip The Duke Of Edinburgh. Get Your Facts Right And Do Your Research Better Next Time.
He didn’t have a nazi background. He had several sisters who married German princes who supported the Nazis. That’s a big difference. He himself fought bravely during the war on the side of the Allie’s.
Wow! Oueen Elizabeth got her way to marry whom she wanted but,she wouldn't let her son marry the woman that he loved! And, we all know what a terrible mess that turned out to be!A beautiful,young, innocent woman paid the intimate price for marrying Prince Charles!DIANA PAID WITH HER LIFE TO BE PRINCE CHARLES WIFE!! 😢😢
A. Camilla didn't want to marry Charles at the time. She married someone else, having refused Charles at least twice. What that's got to do with the Queen I don't know. B. I think you mean "ultimate" rather than "intimate". C. Diana paid with her life as a direct result of her personal choices, and the frenzy of media that surrounded her. That media frenzy only existed to feed the insatiable appetite for gossip and pictures about her, from a certain segment of the public. Blaming the Queen or Charles or anyone else for that is lunatic.
Prince philip himself was not in the knots of party. But his family had German backgrounds And he's a distant cousin of queen elizabeth the second. That's probably the real reason Her father did not approve of prince philip.
and he was poor. I read somewhere that Elizabeth's father once said that Philip didn't even have a pair of plus-fours for golfing or ... some kind of evening wear.
So they were _distant_ cousins. Big deal. They had one great-grandmother in common; namely Queen Victoria. That made them- what? Third or fourth cousins? Here I'm thinking I could have _accidentally_ married a third or fourth cousin of mine (I haven't!); I don't know any of my forbears past great-grandparents; and I certainly didn't keep track of all their various offspring. 🤷 Back when royals would only marry royals, the European royal families were all related by blood or marriage or both, through Queen Victoria, snd King Christian X (I think) of Denmark respectively.
"The Crown" is not history. Margaret's choice of a husband was a problem for both #10 and Canterbury - what the Queen may or may not have thought or done about it personally we do not know. As for Charles, he wanted to marry Camilla - and Camilla was not interested in him at the time. So it's not like he was "forced" to marry Diana. Interesting how you mention Harry - who DID marry his own choice, btw - and forget William, the actual heir to throne. No one interfered with William marrying the lady of his choice EITHER, and she'll be Queen one day, more than likely.
Prince Philip was not a Nazi in fact he bravely fought for the British Navy in WWII. His sisters may have married Nazis, but he always, always was loyal to Britain.
Prince Philip had no Nazi background as he had no say in who his much older sisters married. And he proved lifelong loyalty to Elizabeth and Great Britain.
Prince Philip did not have a Nazi background. He was not a Nazi in any shape or form. However, he had older sisters in Germany who had married high ranking Nazis. During this early Nazi pre war area, one of his sisters died and there is a picture of this then scared looking 13 year old in the funeral party with all these severe looking Nazis. Prince Philip was a Greek prince of Danish origin. A son of Danish king Christian IX had been offered the Greek throne and had accepted it.
That and being her 2nd and 3rd cousin. They’d remained relatively incest free since Victoria, and the result of that was the haemophilia which plagued most of western royalty.
Although Prince Phillip's four sisters each married German Princes, has anybody asked the King formerly from the family of Saxe-Corburg-Gotha about possible Nazi connections on his end? As far as I'm concerned, if there was one thing the King should worry about is whether Philip Mountbatten, formerly Prince Philip of Greece and Denmark would be a good husband and father..and how well could he do the job as Royal Consort.
He did not have a Nazi background. He was Prince of Denmark and Greece and his father abdicated the Greek throne and fled. They lived in England. Where and when did he have a Nazi background. King Edward VIII may have been a Nazi sympathizer. Prince Philip was British through and through. He lived there nearly all his life and spent minimal time in Germany and not when Nazis were in power.
To be fair her sister would have been marrying a Divorced man. Phillip was never married. That was Elizabeth’s concern for both Margret and Charles. She had to go to parliament to get permission for Charles to marry Camilla. When they were first dating she was considered unsuitable because of her many relationships and reputation.
The monarch is head of the Church of England. In Margaret's case, the Church was still very much against divorce. There were also many who remembered her uncle's abdication. In Charles' case, the Church had become more tolerant of divorce (accepting, but not desired). Queen Elizabeth also consulted many advisors to make sure that the marriage would not cause problems.
Yes, the Queen was very traditionalist. She hated divorces and those who divorced. She used the Church to justify it. She got along with Kate Middleton as both hold traditional values dear to them.
@@anikethchakraborty3238 I don't think she hated those who divorced. She still loved her sister, but probably would have wanted to see her marriage remain. Ditto Charles, Andrew, and Anne--live for the person, but grief that the marriages failed.
Townsend was divorced and Camilla is a socialite. Prince Philip's background is more royal than King George VIs' family. Maybe if Camilla's background is even remotely near Prince Philip's, that might helped her then.
He did not personally have a Nazi background. Yes two of his sisters married German aristocrats who during the war were in the military as officers but that had nothing to do with Phillip. He fought against anything remotely related to the Nazi regime which is why Williams younger brother got in such hot water when he dressed up like a Nazi
Lord Louis Mountbatten arranged this marriage between his nephew Prince Philip and Princess Elizabeth. It was very political; Lord Louis was very powerful. I've read that Princess Elizabeth really wanted to marry Lord Porchester, an aristocratic Englishman who managed horse stables amd was later appointed by Queen Elizabeth to manage the stables at Windsor Castle.
@@jeanninegodwin2285 From I hear it was Porchey who wanted her Majesty more that she wanted him, but I’m not totally sure.Yes! Lord Mountbatten was very powerful and he wanted Philip to marry her majesty so he could have his name as the Royal House name.
What Nazi background ? He was educated by a Jewish headmaster in Germany who was expelled by the Nazis and took Philip to his new school in Scotland. He fought at Cape Matapan and his mother was an Orthodox Nun in Thesalonika helping Jews escape from persecution!
Throug out the marriage od Prince Philip and Queen Elizabeth , Philip had many womans which he "dated" . And only one of then really broke Elizabeth's heart Philip's cousin , Princess Alexanda who was also a friend if Elizabeth. It's really sad because divorce was never an option to the Queen because she was the head of the church , and she never wanted revenge with Porchy or someone else ( or so we think ) .
Wow, a father that had doubts about his daughters boyfriend. THAT'S NEVER HAPPENED.
Yeah because the daughters would eventually get pissed and tell off their fathers to not interfere in their in private life. Why is it always the man that gets the blame? Pls think more deeply before putting blame on fathers out there and not accusing anything randomly

If her elders wanted Lilibet to choose someone else, they ought to have chosen someone ugly to show the Princess around the Royal Britannia Naval College.
2nd cousins actually.
he never had a nazi background, his sisters married germans who were in the forces in WW2 he was prince of greece and denmark, His mother was Princess Alice who was born at Windsor Castle , she was a great grand daughter of Queen Victoria
My father couldn’t stand my husband. He wanted control over me. Ok, my husband is 14 years older and had lived a hedonistic lifestyle. It turned out he was the loyal one. My father was a philanderer and a bully. It only came out after he died.
Sorry to hear of those difficulties you had, but perhaps your father was projecting his own failings onto your husband. It's not uncommon for that to happen. I do hope that you are much happier now...
He fought in British Navy during WWII.
She was his favorite and he didn’t want to let her go so soon. Like any good father who loves his child.
Until they met Meghan, they did not know what "dislike" even meant!!
They knew what dislike was. They definitely knew raw hatred. A certain Wallis Simpson definitely earned the latter
@@chrismc410 it was a joke. A little levity to a difficult situation.
These shorts always get stuff wrong! I'm American & I know Elizabeth didn't abdicate the throne. Do these writers have dictionaries?
P Philip wasn’t British he was Greek & Danish through his father. His mother was German but a great-granddaughter of Queen Victoria.
P Philip fought for Britain in WW2 (my father served with him) he had no Nazi sympathies or associations unlike the husbands of two of his sisters who were German & Nazis. To link PP to having “Nazi links” is false & a slur on his war record & the medals he was awarded.
He may not have been George VI first choice but it wasn’t because of his war record or he has links to the Nazis! 👎🤮🇬🇧
His family was part ofa germanic -austrian lineage which is.why they (Britain royals) became 'house of Windsor' to break away from war-time stigma attached to Germany. They lived happily ever after. 🌹🏴❤️🇺🇸
Wrong world war. The change to Windsor was tied to WWI.
Prince Philip DID NOT have a Nazi background! He was the Queens ‘rock’ and the love of her life! Wonderful husband, father and grandfather and great humanitarian!
his sisters were full blown nazi tho, and elizabeth was cousins with him
Two of Philips sisters were married to nazi's. Lord Mountbatten was the only family he had at his wedding.
Thank you! That remark was totally false and uncalled for.
As I remember, his sisters married Germans who became Nazis. I think one of them might have become Nazi herself.
None of the sisters were invited to Philip's wedding.
Nasty to Charles great to Anne because she was strong. He looked at Charles as weak and whining
And then she refused to allow her sister to marry her love and ruined her sister's life.
She did not ruin her sister's life. Elizabeth wanted Margaret to marry Townsend, but couldn't because it wasn't allowed to marry someone if their former spouse was still alive. Do some research before saying things like that smh
@@railfan0083 No need to research, these rules are the most despotic and idiotic I've ever heard of. Anne married for the second time despite everything.
@@adonisblair by the time Anne was of age Elizabeth was already able to change the rules. The Queen can’t just change the rules it has to be strategically thought out and played as it’s a political game.
@Railfan008 But she misled Margaret apparently by saying they could marry after 2 years when Mwrgaret turned 25, only for that to still not be approved. The Queen seemed a bit selfish because everything had to be about her, she even got jealous when Margaret got more attention on royal tours and when Charles and Diana had success overseas.
@@railfan0083 How exactly does that change anything? Saying she had a say in her sister's life because of some fake sky daddy rules is not any better.
He didn't have a "Nazi background". That's just being sensationalist. He may have had connections prior to the war but was definitely not a Nazi sympathiser.
His war record shows that he probably made a few Nazis have a "lay down" (for eternity.)🪦⚰️ His actions spoke far louder than words👍
Philip was a Greek and danish prince, he had German ancestry. He was a naturalized Briton. He had a German last name originally before it was changed to Mountbatten and even this was originally Battenberg.
No matter who you are, your parents will always hate & disapprove of your love😂 because they believe they can find a better person of their own taste.
I'm guessing this has been your experience and it makes me feel sorry for you.
😂 Since time began, doting fathers have not liked or found fault with the young man who "took away" their princess.
Elizabeth advocated for Phillip. Fought for him.
I just seen another short video where the King approved and said how happy Elizabeth was and knew she would be happy with Phillip b
To be honest I think his concerns about this marriage were justified
Edit:- MOM!! I am famous!!!
Mountbatten went to bat for them and ultimately changed his mind.
Why? They were of German heritage too.
The so called Windsors are extremely German,until this day. In fact, the German has begun to wear away as more and more of the young ones marry Brits or even just mix with Poms and learn then take on some of their more vexing habits.
Philip became a British citizen (he was born a Prince of Greece and Denmark). He served in the Royal Navy during the Second War.
@@gidzmobug2323 - He was born a prince and was in charge of his own country - a king (even though that’s not what he was), as a result of his status he had to rejoice all claims to his country.
That way the two would not be competing with each other.
After all she would be his wife and of lower rank in his country and the British people would not have tolerated that.
As well as making Philip pay any debts his country felt his family owed them. Did not want England to have to pay them.
No, he wanted a clear understanding that Elizabeth was in charge wherever they were.
They didnt like him because he had no problem standing up to them regarding how they treated elizabeth and how she listened to him as an advisor ...especially by her mother who wore the pants and the king did what he was told. The queen mother favoured margaret to the degree she was , in private , given precedence over elizabeth in most matters ...to make up for not being the heir ...... Margaret got the love and favour and elizabeth was browbeaten with duty . The only time she got anything else was in public for family image ,when the king was away from his wifes influence and he really loved her but knew she had to prove her devotion to her subjects thanks to edwards flighty crap hurting the royal standing , when she worked during the war where she was just elizabeth...and when she was with philip and when she had a couple of years just to be his wife till cjarles came along then queen mother stepped in for control again..he gave up so much to be with elizabeth. Despite the mechanations of the queen mother and the dodgy mountbatten who wanted a relative on the throne to control which he almost had with charles .
His sisters married into German aristocracy and at least two of his brothers-in-law were in the nazi party. Philip on the other hand left Germany, after the headmaster of his school was forced out of Germany for being jewish. He finished his education in Britain and was in navy college at 18. His mother, living in Greece during WW2, was hiding a jewish family.
The Queen Mother disliked him as well.
I think she was the one who really disliked him in a malicious way and not in a more parental way as I'm sure Elizabeth's father did. He likely knew Philip had a dashing figure reputation with the ladies and didn't want his daughter to get hurt while the Queen Mum was just a snotty old bird lol.
Daddy would not approve of anybody for Queen Elizabeth
Thank you for using "Heiress Presumptive" instead of "Heiress Apparent." So few people care about the difference.
Since 2013 & the the abolition of male preference primogeniture it’s totally redundant. Only a “spare” will be heir presumptive but only if the monarch doesn’t have children.
She chose the right man
Then she went and did Margaret DIRTY
Wow the Queen was a beauty 😊
They both were queen Victoria grandchildren.
Great grandchildren.
Do research!
@lauralutz4538 Great, great grandchildren actually.
Phillip also always spoke his mind! He was known for his gaffs which his father in law disapproved of!
The Princess Elizabeth did not abdicate. She became Queen after the death of her father. Where did you find your information? Certainly not from actual history
The word was "advocated" not "abdicated".
Prince Philip did not have a Nazi background. His four sisters all married German princes who all joined the Nazi party, some like Berthold of Baden reluctantly.
The prince himself was close to his British relatives. His maternal grandmother Victoria and maternal uncle George (2nd Marquess of Milford Haven) paid for his education. Prince Philip's headmaster was the German Jew Kurt Hahn, who founded Salem and then Gordonstoun schools.
He had no Nazi background, and King George was always going to eventually consent, and they were third cousins. They too distant for this to be considered incest.
Two of Philip’s older sisters married German princes, and Philip, a minor, was consigned briefly to their care while his mother was under treatment for mental illness (his father having washed his hands of his family), and after a relatively brief period of exposure to Naziism while enrolled in a private school, Philip was put into the care of his maternal uncle Lord Louis Mountbatten and moved permanently to the UK. It’s an unfortunate choice of terms to describe Philip’s exposure to Naziism in its early years as his “Nazi background” which suggests active involvement by choice. He was an abandoned child being shuffled between relatives, hardly an enrolled member of the Hitler Youth. And his service to King and Country during WWII speaks for itself. George VI couldn’t have chosen a more suitable husband for his Heiress-Apparent (Margaret would have been the Heiress-Presumptive at that point in time) from among the available younger sons of still-reigning houses of royal rank. Philip, at least, was less the by-product of German culture than the king was himself; the Greek royal house had no surname, hence no need to obscure the obvious from fear of a downturn in public favor.
No surname? What was Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glucksberg then?
@@lisabrown6361 A surname, obviously; the one they bore as members of Denmark’s royal house. But according to the Greek Constitution the Royal Family had no official surname, thus Greek passports were issued to members of the ruling family by titles only. This led to several diplomatic issues during periods when titles were abolished and passports voided after of various coups d’etat that perforated the reigns of Constantine I and George II, and created issues during the exile of Constantine II. The Greek military and republican juntas didn’t care to accord the former monarch and his family the style “of Greece” as doing so was out of step with the mischaracterization of their former royals as foreign and not Greek.
Let’s not forget that Philip was also a God. Maybe George was envious.
To be fair, he didn't become a god until way later, long after he got married.
She abdicated yet was queen? This man stay lying on these ppl
the audio isn't clear, I think he said that she advocated for Philip.
@@sylviagordon6307 the captions say advocate the voice says abdicate
@@jshipp5469 I think that was an error. I think he meant avocated which doesnt mean giving up the crown. Its means to support
"Advocated". You're right though, the audio isnt that clear.
Well Duke you made it to heaven just north of me down my street .I love it I once saw you holding your chiuaua and I saw you washing your car on Highland avenue and most happily saw you with the duchess of Gloucester at Barnes and noble on Rosecrans street in point Loma keep on living my darling The Lord God's gift accepted of well the gift of everlasting life .Thank you God .May you please at your pleasure and your leisure bless us all !
If thats so, then why did hrh stop the marriage between Margaret and Peter? Its totally unfair
Because he was divorced? Bruh
He was a married man and it was scandalous! She could have married him but she had to give up her title and she wasn’t prepared to do that! In those days divorce was frowned upon and only allowed through infidelity!
Margaret could have married him , but chose to keep her royal way of life instead.
@@auldfouter8661 Not to mention, the money which at that time came from the Civil List.
This Edward, Margaret, Andrew and Harry are all bad bloods but gain sympathy most from the people who just naively believe their “love” story while enjoying royal perks without royal duty. The very same people who hate the royal institution and working royals for wasting tax payer money.
I’m glad they got married.
Only the head of the monarch can approve of marriage for people within about 6 royals in line to the throne. So if he didn't like him and didn't approve of him they wouldn't of been approved to marry.
Prince Phillip was of German descent (via Greece) but he had NO "nazi background". He fought the Nazis in ww2.
Why couldn’t King Charles marry Queen Camilla in the 70s like they wanted but Queen Elizabeth was able to marry who she wanted?
The King had just as strong a Nazi background. In the case of Prince Phillip his only ties were that his sisters had married Nazis while living in Germany. The King meanwhile had an older brother who was willing and eager to conspire with Nazis in an attempt to take over the throne that he gave up earlier for "the woman he loved". Oh and that "woman he loved" also was admiring of the Nazis. So The King's brother and sister in law actively tried to hand over the whole of the commonwealth to Hitler.
Fueron una linda Familia. Principe y Reyna. 🙏
Why everyone in the Royal can not marry the one they love?
Cause their lives don't belong to themselves. They are property of the State, they exist entirely to serve the people and to represent in fact the country. It's the crown, not the person who uses it.
@@ViniciusSilva-hu4fi That is the propaganda they use to be able to grift from people. Without good propaganda, the people may not want to support them any more.
@@rustythegreatandpowerfulla2676 In fact it could be, but I don't believe this is the true background. As a Hegel's reader, I may say the king is the only person who can stand for the State, cause he isn't elected. The State shall stay despite the government, shouldn't be disputed, and only hereditarity can stand for this.
@@goldiegold7824 I agree with you in some parts, we tends to believe that the royals are not humans cause of their role. I also agree that Charles should have been allowed to marry Camilla since the beginning, but this are things of these decades, it will pass... And the monarchy, by what it is, will survive. What I'm trying to say is that a royal marriage can't be only love, it shall be, in first, duty and service. It isn't a private matter, it's a matter of State.
@@ViniciusSilva-hu4fi thank you helping me understand have a great day
His Uncle set that up making sure his nephew met a young Elizabeth who got too see a good-looking handsome boy with no shirt swimming around.
Elizabeth II was hooked.
The other Royal family believed Him to Be too Pretty for Elizabeth they wanted someone dreary and well-brought up for England's standard's.
He wasn't a nazi at all. His sisters married nazi military men. The British Royal family had German roots except for George Vl wife Elizabeth who was Scottish. Elizabeth 's brother was killed in WWI so she became anti German. But Elizabeth ll was determined. He sure was handsome!
She wasn't even queen yet, but she abdicated for Phillip.
What the hell is this guy talking about?
The word was "advocated" not "abdicated".
There were also concerns about Philip’s proximity to the Greek throne. For a good while he was third in line to the Greek throne behind King Paul’s son Constantine and Paul’s uncle George (who’s son Peter had been invalidated from the succession due to his marriage)
Wrong Info my Dude.
He had No Nazi Background All his sisters married German Nazis who followed Hitler in the Forces, He's a prince at birth with royal blood of Greece and Denmark, His ancestry of German Not British and Fought For Britain In The Navy In WW2.
Both Elizabeth and Philip are related to Monarchs Queen Victoria of UK and King Christian IX Of Denmark.
All Dads Will Disapprove of Their Daughters Boyfriends Because No one Will Ever Loved Their Daughters More Than Them And Will Feel Like They Are Losing Their Little Girls To Their Boyfriends.
Remember A Daughter's First Love Is Her Dad.
All Of Them Loved Prince Prince Philip Except For Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother.
Back Then Queen Elizabeth II was still princess Elizabeth because her father King George VI was still Alive and On The British Throne when She married Prince Philip, She didn't even abdicated because she wasn't even Queen as yet, She Became Queen Elizabeth II when her father King George VI had died in February 6 1952.
Philip gave up all his Greek and Danish royal titles when he married Elizabeth and she fought for him to be Prince Philip The Duke Of Edinburgh.
Get Your Facts Right And Do Your Research Better Next Time.
He didn’t have a nazi background. He had several sisters who married German princes who supported the Nazis. That’s a big difference. He himself fought bravely during the war on the side of the Allie’s.
If it true .Our late beautiful Queen new she had a keeper with Prince Philip ,he was a steadfast and loving husband. ❤️
They were also German...
Wow! Oueen Elizabeth got her way to marry whom she wanted but,she wouldn't let her son marry the woman that he loved! And, we all know what a terrible mess that turned out to be!A beautiful,young, innocent woman paid the intimate price for marrying Prince Charles!DIANA PAID WITH HER LIFE TO BE PRINCE CHARLES WIFE!! 😢😢
A. Camilla didn't want to marry Charles at the time. She married someone else, having refused Charles at least twice. What that's got to do with the Queen I don't know.
B. I think you mean "ultimate" rather than "intimate".
C. Diana paid with her life as a direct result of her personal choices, and the frenzy of media that surrounded her. That media frenzy only existed to feed the insatiable appetite for gossip and pictures about her, from a certain segment of the public. Blaming the Queen or Charles or anyone else for that is lunatic.
Let us forget the past and let the dead rest in peace...
Prince philip himself was not in the knots of party. But his family had German backgrounds And he's a distant cousin of queen elizabeth the second. That's probably the real reason Her father did not approve of prince philip.
and he was poor. I read somewhere that Elizabeth's father once said that Philip didn't even have a pair of plus-fours for golfing or ... some kind of evening wear.
So they were _distant_ cousins. Big deal. They had one great-grandmother in common; namely Queen Victoria. That made them- what? Third or fourth cousins? Here I'm thinking I could have _accidentally_ married a third or fourth cousin of mine (I haven't!); I don't know any of my forbears past great-grandparents; and I certainly didn't keep track of all their various offspring. 🤷 Back when royals would only marry royals, the European royal families were all related by blood or marriage or both, through Queen Victoria, snd King Christian X (I think) of Denmark respectively.
Dude, second cousins aren't incest. They have regular babies as much as any person
Perhaps it was because of the fact she was 13 when she became romantically interested in him
Good grief…. Queen Elizabeth DID NOT “ABDICATE for her prince” … she became Queen. Edward was the one who abdicated for Love.
The word was "advocated" not "abdicated".
Funny how she was able to marry who she chose, but didn't give Margaret, Charles or Harry that same consideration....
Harry married the woman he wanted, he's not in that list.
"The Crown" is not history. Margaret's choice of a husband was a problem for both #10 and Canterbury - what the Queen may or may not have thought or done about it personally we do not know.
As for Charles, he wanted to marry Camilla - and Camilla was not interested in him at the time. So it's not like he was "forced" to marry Diana. Interesting how you mention Harry - who DID marry his own choice, btw - and forget William, the actual heir to throne. No one interfered with William marrying the lady of his choice EITHER, and she'll be Queen one day, more than likely.
Prince Philip was not a Nazi in fact he bravely fought for the British Navy in WWII. His sisters may have married Nazis, but he always, always was loyal to Britain.
Prince Philip had no Nazi background as he had no say in who his much older sisters married. And he proved lifelong loyalty to Elizabeth and Great Britain.
Prince Philip did not have a Nazi background. He was not a Nazi in any shape or form. However, he had older sisters in Germany who had married high ranking Nazis. During this early Nazi pre war area, one of his sisters died and there is a picture of this then scared looking 13 year old in the funeral party with all these severe looking Nazis.
Prince Philip was a Greek prince of Danish origin. A son of Danish king Christian IX had been offered the Greek throne and had accepted it.
That and being her 2nd and 3rd cousin. They’d remained relatively incest free since Victoria, and the result of that was the haemophilia which plagued most of western royalty.
They were cousins. Kissing cousins.
He was a hunk.
Thankyou Patrizia. 💐
Seems European Queens have one thing in common. No wimps at the head of their family table.
Although Prince Phillip's four sisters each married German Princes, has anybody asked the King formerly from the family of Saxe-Corburg-Gotha about possible Nazi connections on his end?
As far as I'm concerned, if there was one thing the King should worry about is whether Philip Mountbatten, formerly Prince Philip of Greece and Denmark would be a good husband and father..and how well could he do the job as Royal Consort.
He did not have a Nazi background. He was Prince of Denmark and Greece and his father abdicated the Greek throne and fled. They lived in England. Where and when did he have a Nazi background. King Edward VIII may have been a Nazi sympathizer. Prince Philip was British through and through. He lived there nearly all his life and spent minimal time in Germany and not when Nazis were in power.
He didn't like him, because he nailed his little girl
Prince Philip and Queen Elizabeth are 2nd cousin. Prince Philip's mother and Queen Elizabeth's father are first cousin
And didn’t allow her sister, nor son to do the same….interesting
To be fair her sister would have been marrying a Divorced man. Phillip was never married.
That was Elizabeth’s concern for both Margret and Charles.
She had to go to parliament to get permission for Charles to marry Camilla.
When they were first dating she was considered unsuitable because of her many relationships and reputation.
The monarch is head of the Church of England.
In Margaret's case, the Church was still very much against divorce.
There were also many who remembered her uncle's abdication.
In Charles' case, the Church had become more tolerant of divorce (accepting, but not desired). Queen Elizabeth also consulted many advisors to make sure that the marriage would not cause problems.
Yes, the Queen was very traditionalist. She hated divorces and those who divorced. She used the Church to justify it. She got along with Kate Middleton as both hold traditional values dear to them.
@@anikethchakraborty3238 I don't think she hated those who divorced. She still loved her sister, but probably would have wanted to see her marriage remain. Ditto Charles, Andrew, and Anne--live for the person, but grief that the marriages failed.
Townsend was divorced and Camilla is a socialite. Prince Philip's background is more royal than King George VIs' family. Maybe if Camilla's background is even remotely near Prince Philip's, that might helped her then.
He was not a Nazi, and neither he had a Nazi background
He did not personally have a Nazi background. Yes two of his sisters married German aristocrats who during the war were in the military as officers but that had nothing to do with Phillip. He fought against anything remotely related to the Nazi regime which is why Williams younger brother got in such hot water when he dressed up like a Nazi
Prince Phillip was handsome as a young man!
I cannot imagine anyone more insipd. He probably taught his boys to shake hands only.... Never, ever an embrace,clet alone a kiss.
It's ALL so darn Perfecto it's truly blowing my mind!😂
It also was his uncle who wanted his to get with Queen Elizabeth. He was a scheming man.
Ng edward, king george's brother, was a close friend of hitler
He nearly finished king with a blow in round table meeting on WWII but was saved by BRSingh
His sisters were married to nazis but he had nothing to do with the nazis.
British background, Nazi background, he was a true American aristocrat.
“Abdicated” for her Prince? I’m not sure you know what that means…
I doubt very much if this is the reason why her father was concerned. Phillip was a playboy and unlikely to be faithful.
A lot of men in those times cheated
@@BluKush420 as the Queen Mum reportedly said to Princess Diana, "They all do". 🤷😞
Lord Louis Mountbatten arranged this marriage between his nephew Prince Philip and Princess Elizabeth. It was very political; Lord Louis was very powerful. I've read that Princess Elizabeth really wanted to marry Lord Porchester, an aristocratic Englishman who managed horse stables amd was later appointed by Queen Elizabeth to manage the stables at Windsor Castle.
@@jeanninegodwin2285 From I hear it was Porchey who wanted her Majesty more that she wanted him, but I’m not totally sure.Yes! Lord Mountbatten was very powerful and he wanted Philip to marry her majesty so he could have his name as the Royal House name.
@@thekingsdaughter4233 That’s true she did say that
🤬🤬🤬Philip had NO British background, and Elizabeth had even more German blood than did Philip!🤬🤬🤬
What would an American know about it that the British don't?
What Nazi background ? He was educated by a Jewish headmaster in Germany who was expelled by the Nazis and took Philip to his new school in Scotland. He fought at Cape Matapan and his mother was an Orthodox Nun in Thesalonika helping Jews escape from persecution!
He did not have a Nazi background,
that was Prince Harry! ✌🏻😹
Throug out the marriage od Prince Philip and Queen Elizabeth , Philip had many womans which he "dated" . And only one of then really broke Elizabeth's heart Philip's cousin , Princess Alexanda who was also a friend if Elizabeth.
It's really sad because divorce was never an option to the Queen because she was the head of the church , and she never wanted revenge with Porchy or someone else ( or so we think ) .
Absolute nonsense!!!
Nothing but unsubstantiated rumors. You’re in love with the tabloids, aren’t you?
HOGWASH. Whoever dreamed up that Philip and Alexandra were an item is either willfully lying or a complete ignoramus. For shame!
So Mountbatten’s influence had nothing to do with it?
What "Nazi background"? Philip wss Greek. George's brother, King Edward VIII, was a known Nazi sympathizer, but that's not why he abdicated.
His sisters married the Germans. Check Google their pictures are all together at a parade.
Prince Philips sisters married men with Nazi backgrounds. The truth about King Edward VIII has been buried.
