The Russian Grand Duke George Romanov has announced his engagement to his long term girlfriend Rebecca Bettarini after a Christmas proposal.
The 39-year-old son of Grand Duchess Maria Vladimirovna of Russia proposed to Italian lobbyist and writer Rebecca, 35, in December, after asking her parents for their blessing.
Rebecca, who is the daughter of Italian Ambassador Roberto Bettarini, went on to share the news on her own Instagram page, writing: 'A new chapter of our life book together is starting.

The nail polish stories are the ones I can’t wait for! I luff royal weddings.
Congratulations to the couple, I hope they are happy and wish them well.
That stated, there is NO SUCH THING AS ROYALTY!
They are just people, nothing special.....
It’s good to be the Duke.
Royalty is ludicrous. And Russia has no royalty as far as I know.
That’s-a nice-a
LOL, spoken like someone who doesn’t have blue blood in their veins! :^)
Looks like a tight fit to get that shot. Her left chest is resting on top of his gut. If she were wearing flats, she’d have to stand further away.
An elegant and happy looking couple. I wish them well. I probably just noticed them today because my brain is still recovering from the biden family picture from yesterday.
Hope he made a better choice than poor ‘ol Harry with Meghan.
How is he a direct descendent of Nicholas ll when his whole family was murdered.
Congratulazioni. Ormai hai detto “sì”. Tanti auguri. I nostri migliori auguri e tanta felicità .
She’s an attractive, classy woman.

I find titles like that quite amusing. Russia does not confer titles of nobility. And Russia does not recognize titles of nobility. So this guy is no more a grand duke than I am.
Signed,
Leaning Right
Grand Duke of the Keyboard
Good for them, but I wouldn’t want my life chopped into categories in a book as she seems to speak about them.
The current Head of the House of Romanov is descended from a great-great-granddaughter in the male line of Emperor Alexander II of Russia. She is a lovely person, speaks perfect English, we enjoyed a sail with her a few years ago. The article is about her son.
Not Guilty.
Finally, a Grand Duke with a “real” body type.
Good for him.
