Grand Duchess Marie Alexandrovna Romanova / Duchess Marie of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha

I see similarities between her and her nephew Nicky.

She was a very serious woman.

[talmadge1926]

she would not accept that she was obliged to take precedence accorded to her by marriage rather than her birth and drove the royal family to distraction by her constant carping that a daughter of the Tsar should have precedence over The Princess of Wales, wife of the heir to the throne . The last Duchess of Coburg. Legend says that when German courts disappeared at the end of World War 1 she dropped dead of a heart attack after being addressed as Frau Coburg

The Marie biscuit is named after her
