Princess Elena of Romania

Queen-Mother Elena's remains are going to be brought home, to Romania, so to be re-buried at Curtea de Arges, alongside her son King Mihai I, the Royal Family announces, scheduling a mourning period of three days on 18, 19 and 20 October.

As Britain awaits Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's impending marriage, Romania is set to have its own royal wedding in September as Nicolae Medforth-Mills, the late ex-king Michael I's grandson, is set to wed his partner, artist Alina-Maria Binder.
