Princess Margaret, the Countess of Snowdon. Without question one of the most controversial Royals we have seen and a real maverick.

Princess Margaret was born on the 21st of August and lived a life filled with drama, sadness, and excitement.

While the late princess was often viewed as living in her sister Elizabeth's shadow, she undoubtedly paved her own way in the world and was no stranger to the glitz and glamour (and trappings) of life as a Royal and a celebrity.

Margaret's legacy 

Princess Margaret lived a quiet life with her parents and sister until her uncle, King Edward VIII, abdicated his crown in order to re-marry.

This would prove to completely change the course of Margaret's life, as it meant her sister Elizabeth was now heir presumptive.

Rumors surrounded Margaret early in her life, as many believed her to be deaf and mute, though this was proved untrue following her first public appearance.
