The Tsarevich Georgy announces his wedding

The Russian Imperial House announced the upcoming wedding of Grand Duke Georgy Mikhailovich to the hereditary noblewoman from Italy Rebecca (baptized Victoria Romanovna) Bettarini. Metropolitan Barsonuphius of St. Petersburg and Ladoga gave Victoria Romanovna Bettarini on the day of her accession to Orthodoxy the icon of the Heavenly patroness, St. Victoria of Rome. Saint Petersburg, 12 July 2020. Indeed, for monarchs, marriage is not only a private matter, but also a question of continuing the Dynasty. And in our Russian case, when the Romanov Dynasty has only one and only legal heir, this issue is of particular importance.
