Isn't Prince Philip Greek? |

He is Greek, and Danish but like all of Victoria and Albert's descendants is also part of the inbreeding problem. Basically they are all German until Will/Harry because Diana was over 90% English. |

| German ancestors. The Hapsburgs were notoriously inbred. Just google their portraits and you will seen the huge underbites |

Oh, honey, you're very naive. Genes have everything to do with power. Europe's royalty is notorious for inbreeding. Prince Phillip was born in Greece but related to the last Czar of Russia's family. Why do you think hemophilia, deafness, and mental illness ran so rampant among royals? http://www.medicalbag.com/grey-matter/part-ii-british-royals-house-of-kissing-cousins/article/472430/ http://womenshistory.about.com/od/rulers20thcentury/f/How-Are-Queen-Elizabeth-Ii-And-Prince-Philip-Related.htm |

Fergie's kids don't seem too bad. The red haired one just needed a different hairstyle IMO.
Other than that, look at the gene pool. William and Harry didn't get enough from their mom. |

| I beg to differ -- the Queen was very pretty as a young woman. |

No, she wasn't. You know that ACTRESSES portrayed her in movies like A Royal Night Out, right? |

| George and Charlotte are not cute babies. They have really weird, fat faces. |

King George XI was rather handsome as a young man, but his older brother (Duke of Windsor) wasn't much to look at. One of their younger brothers (can't remember which one), was strikingly handsome in pictures.
Queen Elizabeth was a cute child and an attractive woman. She really looks incredible for 90. Her blue eyes are beautiful! Margaret was very attractive as a young woman and was supposed to be even prettier in person. Margaret not age well, probably because of her various addictions. Poor Prince Charles didn't inherit his father's good looks. Who does he even look like, anyway? Some ancestor obviously, because he doesn't really resemble either of his parents. William was a very handsome young man but his receding hairline doesn't suit him. He's still a good looking guy overall. Harry looks a whole lot like Charles, but is probably considered more attractive because of his engaging personality. Beatrice and Eugenie need a stylist. It's almost like they try to look ridiculous, though Eugenie is nice looking. The kids are cute, but poor little George looks apprehensive in almost every picture. He has a long life of having his picture taken ahead of him. I don't think any of the Royals look too bad and, yes, they are not paid models or entertainers so we get what we get with them. Perhaps least attractive of all is the Princess Royal, but she does the most good work next to the Queen. |

I think you missed the point... Yes we all know they kept it in the family, noone is arguing otherwise. |

| Princess Anne was attractive as a young woman but looks pretty horsey now. The Duchess of Cornwall has aged well. |

Yes, she was! Beauty is somewhat subjective, but google "young Queen Elizabeth." She was very attractive and elegant looking. |

I agree with you PP. She was an attractive young woman IMO. |
