Princess Marie "Mignon" of Roumania, Queen of Yugoslavia

Marie of Roumania was born in Gotha, Thuringia, in Germany. She was known as Mignon in the family to distinguish her from her mother. Maria's mother was Queen Marie of Romania and her father was King Ferdinand I of Romania. During the World War I, she worked as a nurse with her mother.
She married Alexander I of Yugoslavia, King of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes in Belgrade on 8 June 1922, and had three sons: King Peter II (1923--1970), Prince Tomislav (1928--2000), Prince Andrej (1929--1990)
Queen Maria was popular and respected, by the people of Serbian public, and is still well thought of in the region. She was regarded as an ideal wife and mother according to the contemporary Serbian ideal and described as a humble person. She was engaged in several social projects. In the eyes of the Serbian people, she remain one of the greatest humanitarian patrons of the Serbian region.
Streets are named in her memory, such as "Ulica kraljice Marije" or "Queen Maria Street", and numerous schools and other organizations still carry her name.
Following the assassination of King Alexander I of Yugoslavia in Marseille in 1934, her oldest son became Peter II of Yugoslavia, the last Yugoslav king. She was given the title Queen Mother of Yugoslavia in 1941. She moved to a farm in England and lived a relatively normal life, without royal extravagance. Maria was well educated. She spoke several languages fluently and enjoyed painting and sculpting. She also drove a car by herself which was very unusual for royalty at the time.
She died in exile in London on 22 June 1961 and is interred at the Royal Burial Ground at Frogmore, which adjoins Windsor Castle.
