Pregnancy, births and being dominated (sweetly of course) by Mother Dearest and sometimes Mary?s jealous sisters in law. The first two was the fate of many Victorian women, the last was caused by marrying a man who had a very possessive mother. George had his mother?s number though. He once remarked to his wife that ?Mama is the most selfish woman I know?.

Prince John's image was not included in a programme produced to mark
King George V and Queen Mary's Silver Jubilee in 1935.

Prince John died just after WW1 in Jan 1919, sixteen and a half years before the Jubilee. Unlike his siblings, whom the public had witnessed growing up, marrying and in some cases having children, there was no point of reference for Britons to grasp as far as this youngest child was concerned. It was sad and unfortunate, but there you are. Most British and Empire citizens under 25 wouldn?t remember him, especially as he was kept quietly away in Norfolk for years. Therefore the decision was obviously made in those circumstances not to include John in the programme. I?m sure his parents, most of his siblings and the Duke of Kent, to whom he was close, thought of him sometimes though.
