Princess Margriet of the Netherlands from 0 to 81 years old

Описание: Margriet Francisca (January 19, 1943) is the third child and daughter of Queen Juliana and Prince Bernhard. As an aunt of the reigning monarch, King Willem-Alexander, she is a member of the Dutch Royal House and currently eighth and last in the line of succession to the throne.
She was born in Ottawa and named after the marguerite, the flower worn during the war as a symbol of the resistance to Nazi Germany. Her godparents included US President Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Queen Mary (Queen dowager of the United Kingdom).
Princess Margriet married Pieter van Vollenhoven in 1967, and they had four sons: Princes Maurits, Bernhard, Pieter-Christiaan, and Floris.
She is particularly interested in health care and cultural causes. From 1987 to 2011 she was vice-president of the Dutch Red Cross, who set up the Princess Margriet Fund in her honour. She is a member of the board of the International Federation of National Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies.
Princess Margriet has often represented the monarch at official or semi-official events. Some of these functions have taken her back to Canada, the country where she was born de facto, and to events organised by the Dutch merchant navy of which she is a patron.
