Don’t misunderstand me, I don’t dislike foreigners, I was born in Holland, it’s just that I’m a staunch republican.That there is German ancestry in the Royal line is without doubt. The Queen's Great Grandmother Queen Victoria had German blood from both sides. Her Father Prince Edward Duke of Kent was the fourth son of the German King George 111. Her mother was Victoria Saxe Coberg Saalfeld, a German Princess.
I am a Royalist... although the antics of Harry and Megan (and Andrew) make me wonder for how much longer.
