You can not own a property on Mustique w/o making it available for rental, at least that's the way it used to be. I ran into Mick, Jerry Hall with some of the kids, David Bowie at the medical clinic and Robert Plant on a walk-about on the island. Basil's Bar was the place to be and everyone was there! Those were some great times I must say. No one made a fuss about them at all, they/we knew better as it was a sanctuary.
Yep she has a new book out apparently, I saw her interview last week ….it’s on TH-cam…..she seems really cool not snobby at all having lived the life she lived …..apparently her husband beat the crap out of her on more than one occasion…..terrible, and she lost her son …
Our daughter was a guest in Mustique and she phoned home to say they had been swimming at Princess Margaret's pool (they'd been staying at Lord Litchfield's) and quipped "boy is her livingroom ever tacky" Out of the mouth of a 12 year old.
Beautiful place! I went there in 2004 , on a private catamaran out of Bequia. We had to leave the island by 3 pm because there was going to be a " jump up" party , for Mick Jagger, at Basils.
Not so. As the spare she had more freedom. Were she the heir she wouldn’t even have met Anthony Armstrong Jones or much of the other people she associated with.
Hope it ends soon anyway it's nothing but an antiquated ritual sponging on hard working taxpayers money who worships mere mortals in this day and age??
How her friend Ann could say she wasn’t spoiled is beyond me when she expected Ann’s husband to pay for her mansion on the island after gifting her the land ! No wonder Ann’s late husband changed is Will at the last moment leaving everything to a friend !
When I worked in Israel as a chef for a Church of England Pilgrim's Hospice in Jaffa followed by the Hilton Tel-Aviv for a total of ten years, I wrote to Princess Margaret after she had scalded her feet and sent her some tiny shells I had gathered on the shores of the Sea of Galilee that I made into a bookmark, and I received a very gracious reply letter via her Lady-In-Waiting, as I was aware that many high-ranking royals had never been there. Her Late Royal Highness is no longer with us, but I still have that letter which I treasure.

Princess Margaret knew just how to be royal and yet keep her private life away from the public. Harry should have learned from her on how to manage as a royal.
Even in HER day ,she couldve walked at anytime . By the time her Sister was Queen ,she was NOT the spare . She was only second in line for 11 years of her life , 7 to 18 ,If we are to believe her issues stemmed from that ,then they were her own doing . Nobody told her she couldnt marry Townsend ,they told her what her circumstances would be if she did .SHE chose not too. That being said ,I truly believe she loved her sister ,and not because of what she wore on her head ,but a genuine sibling closeness. Her children turned out ,it seems perhaps the best of them ,down to her ,her husband ? I dont know. I do recall my very royalist Grandmother ,not an important lady in the scheme of things ,but a clever ,articulate woman ,pointing out that Margarets children were always with the Queen. Princess Margaret DID have her admirers . Hangers on though ,wealthy or otherwise ,most of them.
They carry on about how informal it all was when the Queen & Prince visited but I truly believe they would have enjoyed that cause it was different & they were in paradise !
A very beautiful looking Princecess . It appears she mixed with the wrong people, (except for Lady Glenconner ), searching for some excitement and peace at the same time. It is a very sad thing, that she wasnt able to marry Peter Townsend. How sad she got caught up with that Tony Armstrong Jones.
I think Princess Margaret was just a misunderstood person, she trying to stay away from her unfortunate husband who was privileged to marry her as a princess she was shows she is a very emotional person she just didn't have the right people around her, being a princess of a country like UK everyone would expect her to please them but forgetting she was a person who had her own desires and that's why i love the Queen's second son Andrew he lived and still living his life without trying to please people
There are family properties and a rather large fortune that provided income for the royal family as well as the public stipends. I should imagine Margaret must have inherited some private estates.
Pay for what ? A flight -her house was a gift parties arranged -she was just free there -having been there many times there is no where to go only private house parties
She was beautiful, spoilt and a user. At least she had some happy times before she died in a lovely situation. Sure the sale by son hastened her eventual early death.
..... Bianca Jagger would go to the Opening of an ENVELOPE! - Mick was GREAT; Very 'down to earth' ...... I only served Them; but Bianca was very 'remote' 🥱 Phil. Liverpool UK 🇬🇧 PS. half way through & Its Enough 👍
She was patron of northern ballet I went to a preview of the new ballet “ dracula’ in Leeds she was late to arrive we all had to sit there and wait !! When she arrived no one stood for the national anthem we were all fed up of her !!! All through the ballet the police outriders sat outside with their bikes running !!! What a waste of!!! Time
Her heavy smoking killed her. Many strokes. Women In her day wasn't educated much. She lived in a sad time where women didn't have careers. What was Margaret to do?
I’ve watched this before. As a child I thought Margaret was the most beautiful woman in the world. I still think so. I’m sure the Queen was jealous as I have read Prince Philip thought so too. She married that ghastly man Linley. Her life was so sad. Thank goodness she loved the island . Not sure if it made up for her first true love
"Her life was so sad." ??????? Really. ?????? Tell that to families in homeless shelters and double amputee veterans. I bet 4 BILLION people would happily change sad lives with her.
But really, there are and were so many people more beautiful than her, although she wasn't unattractive. Maybe you're fascinated by her being royal and rich?
She did not marry anyone called Linley! She married Antony Armstrong Jones , her son was Lord Linley. If you’re going to pontificate at least get your facts right.
How SAD is it that Princess Margaret gifted her wonderful BELOVED Mustique home to her son and 2 years after he sells it ... she dies . I believe it broke her heart that he couldn't love and treasure property that gave her so much happiness and freedom ... I can imagine how it made her feel as if he was rejecting her love by cutting off this place that was her real home , no doubt .
I'm sure their tax bill was way higher than most: they sold all her best jewels and bibelots, there was a lot of other furniture and other things, clothes, all inherited to be kept, sold and heavily taxed.
She was constantly drunk on gin. In fact her nick name mystic was “ ginny “. She loved the good things in life - champagne, chocolate and loads of C ---- K
They should have left her alone and let her have a life. Men are such hypocrites “ I am desperately unhappy “ give me a break. Best thing she did was finding a man that wanted her and made her happy
No one should feel sorry for any one that’s the last thing I would want. No one wants any body’s pitty. But at the same time. Margret was human like the rest of all is human royal rich like her. Went through the same hardships as anyone else the denial of her marrying Peter she was told not too she had her enotionao baggage. Resulting into alcoholism I have empathy for her
She wasn’t a Saint! QE raised her kids like her own.. Tony was much more a better FATHER than she was a MOTHER, if you can call it that.. don’t make her out to be the victim.. she could take care of herself

She was an idiot who could have accepted marriage to her 1st love if she'd accepted stepping down from her titled, privileged life( which gave her the chance to boss folk around ) for a life of love , she was a nasty, horrible drunk 🥴
Margaret and Harry seem to get loads of attention. Harry was the favorite royal until he decided to ignore the firm and leave and then thumb his nose at everyone who had previously protected him and covered up his mis-deeds.
Pay for what ? A flight -her house was a gift parties arranged -she was just free there -having been there many times there is no where to go only private house parties
Great upload! Thank you!
She was definitely an interesting woman. I am not feeling sorry for someone who lived an extremely privileged life, paid for by others.

Lord Tenants place is for sale
Not for Glenconner's wife who recently accused him of badly beating her up during one of his 'violent outbursts'. Eventually she left him.

A safe place for Margret to be herself
I adore this beautiful lady what a great friend to Margaret & such fun!
An absolute narcissist. Totally self absorbed. She was incredibly selfish and was unfortunately, never challenged.
A totally indulged woman.
Thank you so much Mustafa xx
Beautiful place! I went there in 2004 , on a private catamaran out of Bequia. We had to leave the island by 3 pm because there was going to be a " jump up" party , for Mick Jagger, at Basils.
She was no rebel, she was an overindulged prat & her mother was too gin-soaked to sort her out !
They both needed psychiatric help more than they need gin
She comes across as self and self absorbed. Thank God she wasn’t the 1st born. The monarchy would have ended much sooner.
Not so. As the spare she had more freedom. Were she the heir she wouldn’t even have met Anthony Armstrong Jones or much of the other people she associated with.
And, it isn't over yet.
What a stupid comment, if she had been first born it would have been totally reversed.
Hope it ends soon anyway it's nothing but an antiquated ritual sponging on hard working taxpayers money who worships mere mortals in this day and age??
Great posting😊 thanks ❤❤❤
She was a lady of leisure, & privilege and no one should feel sorry for her

I spent 10 days in mystique at micks house which we rented , absolutely the most beautiful island in the Caribbean ❤
Would you please care to share how much the rental property went for? Thank you
Personally, I always thought Tony Snowden was GAY! You know what they say about “Players”! LOL!!!
Def an amazing private island -paradise ❤❤❤❤❤
Spoiled beyond belief.
The tenant children paid a heavy price. 😢
She could have married Peter Townsend but would have lost her royal rights. Poor Peter wasn't rich enough.
That's not actually true. She would have kept her royal rights. Read up on it.
Kind of an "heir and a spare" sound familiar?
True the tenant children paid very high price 😊
Love this! Have you read the book? By her Lady in waiting? It's sooo GOOD!!
it is
Thank you for mentioning it. I'll have to read it.
Would like to read , what's the title and author please

Why are you bringing Harry into this?
Is there only ONE photo of the Tennants together on the island?

Lucky lady to find Roddy and be loved = Go Margaret ❤
I am so glad she was able to find some happiness and peace, away from all the formalities of royal life. She was the lucky one. ❤ 🙏
They carry on about how informal it all was when the Queen & Prince visited but I truly believe they would have enjoyed that cause it was different & they were in paradise !
I've always found her fascinating!
Margaret was a Leo. She needed luxury and attention.
My now ex-husband is a Leo. Agreed.

She was an arrogant selfish cow who gave the queen hell.
Margaret chose her Royal status rather than Armstrong. She was free to marry him but decided she valued her Royal status more.
@@elizabethcrowley3321 you mean Captain Peter Townsend rather than Antony Armstrong Jones, whom she married.

Theres a fiction novel titled Mustique. Great beach novel
Her heavy smoking killed her. Many strokes. Women In her day wasn't educated much. She lived in a sad time where women didn't have careers. What was Margaret to do?
Did she have a boyfriend named Roddy, kind of unusual man.
Give the woman a break bc she's dead and can't defend herself. R.I.P. Margaret

Ueerk..... picture on wall.... what was she thinking
Who got profit on house sale??
PRs Margaret was the only RL in the family that the people of the Caribbean who they loved before lady Dania.
She was born into a difficult position in the royal family.she could do nothing but be the spare and it destroyed her mentally!
looks fun
PS. HER mother saw her off - she was always tanked up on gin as well.
Rupert Murdoch has a lot to answer for doesn’t he? Such a shame to ruin Margaret’s fragile happiness after all she had endured.
Just what did she endure? A life of privilege without working one single day in her life to earn it?

Sounds like harry u never see her kids either
She always had a big box of Rubbers on hef
What is everybody say she owned it when the other guy paid for it for her so did he pay for everything and then give it to her?
Ce que je n est pas apprécié c est que son île quel adorée ( la pauvre elle a était vendu , Margaret était quelqu'un de très bien ❤❤❤❤
Who cares!!!
👸🏼
She probably had peripheral neuropathy in her feet
Entitlement for what? Really? People are what they provide to society. She, as others, did nothing. The sycophants that support this are disgusting.
What a mooch.
Of the two sisters, she was the beautiful one.
Of the 2 sisters, Elizabeth was always the intelligent one whilst STILL being beautiful & attracting THE most handsome & intelligent man !

not my role models!
must be nice
