Princess Kalina of Bulgaria, Duchess in Saxony, Countess of Murany[1][2] (born 19 January 1972), is the fifth child and only daughter of the former Tsar Simeon II of Bulgaria and his wife, Doña Margarita Gómez-Acebo y Cejuela. Simeon II left Bulgaria as a child in 1945 when the country ceased to be a monarchy by referundum. He was then elected Prime Minister of the Republic of Bulgaria in 2001.

Biography

Kalina earned her secondary education in the Lycée Francais de Madrid and in addition to her native Spanish, she speaks French, English, Italian, German and some Bulgarian. She is an unconventional Royal, often expressing herself through fashion which includes unusual clothing, hairstyle, and makeup. She is a vegetarian, and her interests include fashion, art, furniture restoration, painting, and animal rights. She was baptised a Catholic.

Marriage and issue

On 26 October 2002, at 30 years old, Kalina married Antonio “Kitín” Muñoz y Valcárcel, a noted Spanish sea explorer, born in 1958 in Sidi Ifni, Morocco. They have a 14-year age difference. The royal wedding was the subject of a television documentary. The wedding ceremony was Roman Catholic at Tsarska Bistritsa, but was followed by an Eastern Orthodox blessing.[3]

On 22 October 2006 it was announced that Kalina and Kitín were expecting their first child.[4] Princess Kalina gave birth to a healthy boy on 14 March 2007 at Lozenets Hospital in Sofia, Bulgaria. The baby’s name, Simeon Hassan Muñoz, is in honour of his grandfather Simeon II of Bulgaria and the late Hassan II of Morocco (because of the friendship between the two royal families).[5][6][7] Earlier reports had claimed that the name would have been Simeon Francisco Javier.[8] Simeon was baptised an Orthodox Christian in Bulgaria on 25 April 2008. His godparents are King Mohammed VI of Morocco and Princess Irene of Greece and Denmark.[9] In 2015, Princess Kalina, her husband Kitín Muñoz, and their son Simeon Hassan were living in Rabat (Morocco).[10]

Caroline Cecily Worsley, Lady Worsley[1] (née Dewar; born 12 February 1934), is a Scottish aristocrat. She is the former wife of the 3rd Duke of Fife and the widow of General Sir Richard Worsley.[2]

Early life

Lady Worsley was born Miss Caroline Dewar at Bardowie Castle at Milngavie, a suburb in Glasgow, Scotland, to The Honourable Henry Evelyn Alexander Dewar, a younger son of the 1st Baron Forteviot. Her mother was the former Cynthia Monica Starkie. She had a younger brother, John James Evelyn.

Her father’s half-brother was John Dewar, 2nd Baron Forteviot. He was 49 and childless, and even at her birth it seemed likely that Caroline’s father would become the 3rd Baron. This expectation was met when Lord Forteviot died childless on 24 October 1947. When her father succeeded as 3rd Baron Forteviot, Miss Dewar became The Honourable Caroline Dewar.

First marriage

Miss Dewar became engaged to the then-Lord Carnegie in May 1956. Lord Carnegie was the son of the 11th Earl of Southesk (1893–1992), and Princess Maud of Fife (1893–1945), and heir-apparent to Lord Southesk’s Earldom. Lord Carnegie’s maternal aunt, Princess Arthur of Connaught, was the Duchess of Fife in her own right, and Lord Carnegie was also the heir-presumptive to that Dukedom, as Princess Arthur’s only child was no longer living. Through his mother, Princess Maud, Lord Carnegie was a great-grandson of King Edward VII.

Miss Dewar and Lord Carnegie were married on 11 September 1956 at Perth in Perthshire. She thus became Lady Carnegie. They had three children.

• Stillborn son (4 April 1958)
• The Lady Alexandra Clare Carnegie (born 20 June 1959) m. London 11 May 2001 Mark Fleming Etherington, and has issue.
• David Carnegie, 4th Duke of Fife (born 3 March 1961), styled Earl of Macduff (by courtesy) from birth until his paternal grandfather’s death 16 February 1992, thereafter styled Earl of Southesk until 22 June 2015; m. 16 July 1987 Caroline Anne Bunting (born 13 November 1961); and has issue.

Lord Carnegie’s aunt, Princess Arthur of Connaught, died on 26 February 1959. At that point, he became the 3rd Duke of Fife and Lady Carnegie became Her Grace The Duchess of Fife. However, the Duchess was not to have that position forever. In December 1966, the Duke and Duchess of Fife were divorced. On account of this, the Duchess lost the style of Her Grace and became known as Caroline, Duchess of Fife.

Second marriage

On 7 November 1980, she remarried, at the age of 46, to General Sir Richard Worsley at London, England. She thereafter became The Honourable Lady Worsley. She has no children from this marriage.
