Background
Never as close as her sisters Alexandra & Dagmar were, she increasingly became detached from her family and the fact that her son married the daughter of the last Kaiser of Germany, who both the Empress and the Queen detested, increased her isolation. By the 1920s she became very involved with the dowager Empress and the Anastasia saga.
