Greek royals visit Bucharest

November 12, 1927

Princess Helen of Romania is hosting her brothers, former King George II and Prince Paul of Greece and younger sister, Princess Irene. The Greek royals arrived today in Bucharest from their home in Florence, according to an AP dispatch.
Princess Irene recently became engaged to Prince Christian of Schaumburg-Lippe, who is the nephew of the King of Denmark.
Princess Helen is the estranged wife of Prince Carol, who renounced his right to the throne. Their eight-year-old son, Michael, is king of Romania, but as he is a minor, a Regency rules in his stead.
