Queen Mary of England, the Jianghu people gave the nickname: jeweler.
She is passionate about collecting the jewels of various royal families, imitating the jewels of her predecessors, and usually wears them like Christmas trees.
Most of her jewels were left to her daughters-in-law, each of whom had a better family background, from commoners, counts, dukes, to Greek princesses.
Today I'm going to talk about them.
The eldest, Prince Edward, married Wallis Simpson, the legendary Mrs. Simpson.
Mrs. Simpson's second-class beauty, first-class clothing, and strong social skills.
Edward VIII loved beauty rather than the country, and abdicated to become the Duke of Windsor. But it's not bad money, and I took a lot of money, so I had a very good life with Mrs. Simpson.
The Duke of Windsor gave his wife more than 300 pieces of jewelry, worth more than 1 billion.
The pair had no children, and there is a saying that Edward VIII had ED, so although there were many ex-girlfriends, there were no children.
Queen Mary didn't like this daughter-in-law either, so she gave her a pearl necklace around her neck, but fortunately she was thin and barely put it on, and if she was rich, she would be strangled to death.

老二阿尔伯特王子（乔治六世）娶了伊丽莎白王后，她是伯爵小姐，娘家是带有法国血统的伯爵家庭。
Elizabeth's father, Earl Strathmore, graduated from Eton College, and when his daughter became queen, he naturally added some titles.
伊丽莎白的妈妈塞西莉亚，是首相威廉·卡文迪许的曾孙女。
This family background, in the aristocratic circle, is more than enough than the top
Gossip says that Elizabeth rejected Prince Albert's marriage proposals many times because she had a crush on Prince Edward, but Edward had no feelings for her. In "The Crown", Edward VIII ridiculed her for being fat like a cook, and gave her the nickname "Little Biscuit"
Elizabeth relented and married George, and in appearance, the groom was much better than the bride, who seemed to have an interesting soul
After marriage, they gave birth to two daughters, and when Princess Margaret was born, the aristocratic circle was quite surprised, and they all thought that Elizabeth would not have a second child.
Unexpectedly, she picked up the leak and became a queen.
Elizabeth later hated her uncle very much, and her husband's idle prince was forced to the throne and died in middle age.
She has a small skeleton figure, and she is particularly cute when she wears a Crenolin skirt and a cake skirt. Even if it's a black and white photo, you can see the brilliance of the costume
After her daughter Elizabeth II ascended the throne, she was the queen mother, and she was considered glorious and rich all her life, and it was even more rare that she lived a long life, living 101 years old. In fact, her mother's family does not have longevity genes.

老三格洛斯特公爵亨利娶爱丽丝王妃，爸爸是巴克卢和昆斯伯里公爵，娘家是苏格兰大地主
Therefore, Alice is Miss Duchess, a proper rich girl.
Henry had already proposed to Alice, but Alice did not want to marry into the royal family and refused. Speaking of which, it is really a match, and the prince of the side branch is matched with a rich and noble girl.
In fact, the better the girl, the less she wants to marry into the royal family, she can't get anything, and she has no freedom.
After rejecting Prince Henry's proposal, Alice began to travel around the world, and when she returned to England, she was already a 34-year-old girl, and Henry proposed again.
So, in 1935, the two remaining men and women got engaged.
婚礼很低调，因为爱丽丝王妃的爸爸刚走，婚纱也没有选白纱，而是粉色，于是她有了外号：粉色新娘。
After marriage, Alice, an elderly mother, had two miscarriages, and Queen Mary felt that this son was probably gone, and she was about to despair.
Unexpectedly, the 40-year-old Princess Alice gave birth to a son, William, and a son Richard three years later. It's stable.
Speaking of which, I really want to thank Alice for fighting for her second child, and those who usually pay attention to gossip know that Alice's eldest son, the heir to the title, 31-year-old Prince William, died in a plane crash, and the youngest son Richard missed the title.
Prince Richard's wife is Boulget, who will be awarded the Order of the Garter in 2024, and the couple had a son and two daughters after marriage.
Alice said that her life is good, and it is good enough, she has lived for 102 years and has been rich all her life, and she is sad to say that she lost two men who were very important to her in two years, her eldest son died at the age of 71, and her husband died at the age of 73.

George, the fourth Duke of Kent, married the Greek princess Marina, although Marina is a princess with a good family background, but her family is defeated.
Married to her cousin George, this George is a playboy and eats both sexes, and Marina doesn't know where her husband is after she gets married. And the desire to control is very strong, Marina gave birth to two sons and a daughter after marriage, which is now the Duke of Kent, Prince Michael, and Princess Alexandra of Kent.
Marina's marriage was not happy, and after 8 years, her husband was gone, and it was also a plane crash.
Members of the British royal family have a prescribed salary, and after Prince George's death, his salary is gone, and Marina has to pay a onerous inheritance tax, so life is very unsatisfactory.
With her husband gone and less money, Marina can only rely on selling jewelry to maintain her dignity.
She has always boasted of her noble identity and is a blue-blooded princess, but her mother's family is broken, and marrying the youngest son of the British king, she knows that being a queen is basically no fun.
Later, she became a widow, and she had no money, and her face was gone.
Speaking of which, she really hasn't had any comfortable days. Later photographs all have a hint of bitterness.
In fact, Queen Mary is still relatively fair, except for the eldest daughter-in-law, who really doesn't like it, she is more fair to the other daughters-in-law, and the jewelry is evenly divided.
