Marie of Mecklenburg: The Bold Grand Duchess Who Defied and Thrived Today we are telling the tale of a grand duchess with an attitude Marie of Mecklenburg! She's the only Romanoff who managed to give the Bolshevik Revolution the slip with all her bling intact. We'll chat about her early days, her match with Vladimir Alexandrovich, and the glitz, gossip, and power moves of their ritzy life. This one is a patreon rerun after the Mathilde Kschessinska episode we did in 2022. Enjoy!
