On the 27th of January, Romaniaâs Prince Carol Mircea died in London. Also in Lodon, on the 31st of March, the funerals of the deceased took place at the Romanian Church. It was only the ceremony and no burial. The deceased is in the custody of the London funeral company (Funeral Home), and the burial is still the reason for many disputes.
He was 86 years old. He died after a hard-fought battle with the illness and after he managed to see Romania again at the end of last year, and he was the interviewee of Jurnalul National as well. Prince came in the country for the second time (after more than 50 years). He had come in the country only once before, when Queen Maria died. Actually, on the 9th of February, The Telegraph says Prince Carol Mircea "spent most of his life trying to prove his legitimacy"
UNACCREDITED. The son of Romaniaâs Assignee Prince Carol (who became King Carol II afterwards) and of Ioana Maria (Zizi) Lambrino, to whom Carol married secretly and breaking the royalty law, the deceased has never been accredited as part of the Romanian Royal Court by his stepbrother, King Mihai I, who is the chief of this Court as well. Carol Mircea was born on the 8th of January 1920 in Bucharest, and was registered "Mircea Grigore Carol Lambrino", the name he used all his life, says The Telegraph. The two have never met or talked, even though according to Prince Paul, the son of the Prince Carol Mircea, "many European Royal Houses have tried to mediate a meeting between them".
THE EXILE. Carol Mirceaâs life story is quite complicated to be plot of a soap opera: he is the son of a marriage that took place in another country, which was accredited in Romania by the Royal House. He was forced to live his life in exile, in France and England. The blood relation with Prince Paul was accredited by two Court orders in Lisbon and Paris.
