Prince Philip is descended through Queen Victoria through Princess Alice. His maternal grandmother was Princess Victoria of Battenberg. Furthermore, King Edward VII's daughter Maud also became Queen of Norway, and the royal family of Norway descends from her. Prince Arthur's daughter Princess Margaret married into the Swedish royal family, and her descendants sit on the throne today. Princess Margaret tragically died young, and her only daughter Ingrid became Queen of Denmark and the mother of Margrethe II, Queen Regnant of Denmark. Princess Beatrice's daughter Victoria Eugenie married into the Spanish royal family, and the current Spanish Royal Family also descends from her. Lastly, Princess Louise was reportedly very fond of the late Queen Elizabeth II, who called her "Aunty Palace" because Princess Louise often lived at Kensington Palace during her last few years.
