i assume the philip mentioned is our duke of edinbugh. there is little published in the uk. about philip's sisters nor, indeed, his mother. i seem to remember that two sisters husbands had nazi sympathies and were not invited to the wedding of philip and, our now, queen. thank you for this. alice, the mother, intrigues me.

@johneunson You're welcome. Ans yes, the fact they were german princesses (a big disavantage after WWII), the connection about Schloss Salem (the Baden) and nazism, Sophie's first husband was a notorious SS didn't help.
