Princess is a title given to the female members of royal families. The male equivalent is prince. A princess is usually married to a monarch, but there are also examples of women who became rulers as princesses without being consorts of kings or queens. In these cases, the princess was a reigning monarch in her own right (called being a “princess regnant”). For example, Constance of Antioch was a princess regnant in her own right, as was Sonja Haraldsen, who became a crown princess when she married Crown Prince Harald of Norway.
Princess was born in a house like a thousand others, a house which had cars and buses and taxis speeding ceaselessly past its windows day and night. She spent her first ten years in it. Her education was confined to reading and writing, French, piano and dancing.
But she had an advantage which few other girls can have. She could acquire a working knowledge of the history and constitutional practice of her country, and she could develop in her character a quiet strength which might come into play at any time.
She was a princess, and she showed it by her willingness to share her time with the people of her country. She was president or patron of more than 100 charities and did much to publicise their work. She appeared with the rest of her family on major national occasions, such as the commemorations of VE and VJ Days.
