NEW YORK POST: Princess Margaret — the younger sister of Queen Elizabeth II — engaged in a torrid affair with Hollywood superstar Eddie Fisher in 1953, with Fisher reportedly bragging he satisfied the royal “multiple times” during “explosive sex.”

“Eddie never talked about Princess Margaret in public, he respected her too much, but he told me about their encounter many, many times during our marriage. He looked back on it with great affection,” Terry Richard, Fisher’s fourth wife, told the Daily Mail in a new interview.

Details of the tryst, down to the “cigarette smoke and expensive perfume,” are included in Richard’s new memoir, “Beauty Queen Dreams,” the outlet reported. Richard, 69, was married to Fisher from 1975 to 1976. He died in 2010.

Fisher, then 24 and single, met Princess Margaret, then 22, in 1953 at the Red, White and Blue charity ball at the Dorchester Hotel in London attended by Queen Elizabeth

“He told me she was tiny with the most beautiful piercing blue eyes. He sang for 45 minutes at the ball and directed all his love songs straight at Margaret. When Eddie turned on the charm, he really turned it on,” she added. » | Jack Hobbs and Tracy Swartz | Sunday, October 22, 2023

A CECIL BEATON PORTRAIT FOR THE TATLER MARKING PRINCESS MARGARET’S TRIP TO TRINIDAD | Rights Managed
Her Royal Highness Princess Margaret Rose was the daughter of a king and the sister of a queen. She never forgot this and she never let anyone else forget it. Being royal, at a time when being royal mattered more than it later did, defined her in ways beyond anyone’s control. She was the last of a breed but also, in a sense and up to a point, the first of a new breed, too.

She was a household name in England from well before the Second World War until the rule of New Labour. She could be chillingly regal, putting people down with an icy hauteur; but she might also traipse down to Bermondsey Market looking for bargains or play the piano and sing huskily with a cigarette in a holder, a large Scotch at her elbow and a bevy of adoring friends gathered round. She was a friend of poets and playwrights and prima ballerinas but often went out of her way to be nice to quite ordinary people. You might even say, in a perverse way that some refused to accept, she walked with kings yet kept the common touch. » | Tim Heald | Wednesday, February 9, 2022

Accountant Who Believes He Is Secret Illegitimate Son of Princess Margaret Wins Legal Victory in Bid to See Her Will

Princess Margaret

MAIL ONLINE: Robert Brown, 58, believes the Queen's sister hid her pregnancy in 1955 / Her will was sealed around her death in 2002 - and he wants it opened up / Mr Brown, of Jersey, today won chance for judicial review of access to will / Mr Justice Phillips said there were 'compelling' reasons for his challenge / Born in Kenya, Mr Brown was brought up by Cynthia and Douglas Brown / He says he always felt he was not their natural son, and now wants to know / He said: 'Hopefully I am not a nutcase - I am either right or I am wrong.'

A Jersey accountant who believes he is the illegitimate son of Princess Margaret has won a High Court ruling which could aid his quest to see the contents of her will and that of the Queen Mother.

Robert Brown, 58, is seeking to prove he is Princess Margaret’s secret child and that she hid a pregnancy in 1955.

The royal wills were drawn up around the time of Margaret’s death in 2002, and were sealed to keep their contents secret.

Today Mr Brown was granted permission to seek judicial review of a refusal to allow him access under the Freedom of Information Act 2000 (FOI) to documents he says show there was a 'secret judicial process' for sealing Royal wills.

Giving him leave, Mr Justice Phillips said at London’s High Court that there were 'compelling' constitutional reasons to allow Mr Brown’s legal challenge to go ahead - and that was not altered by a past Court of Appeal observation that Mr Brown’s claim to be Princess Margaret’s son was 'scandalous and irrational'.

The judge said the case gave rise 'to important points of principle and practice' regarding open justice and the public interest. » | Harriet Arkell | Thursday, December 19, 2013

Accountant Seeks to Prove He Is Princess Margaret's Secret Son

THE GUARDIAN: Robert Brown, who believes Princess Margaret hid a pregnancy in 1955, is fighting for access to documents relating to her will

A Jersey accountant is restarting his legal battle to find out if he is Princess Margaret's secret illegitimate son.

Robert Brown, 57, said he was prepared to spend up to £100,000 fighting for access to sensitive documents relating to her will and he has appointed solicitors to obtain secret court papers, known as a practice direction, about the sealing of royal wills drawn up around the time of Margaret's death in 2002.

Brown believes he was born to Princess Margaret in 1955 and his father was possibly Robin Douglas Home. He claims that the later stages of her pregnancy were covered up with the use of body doubles and that he was sent to Kenya to be brought up as the child of Cynthia and Douglas Brown in Nairobi.

He believes the documents will show how Buckingham Palace, the attorney general and a senior judge acted together to maintain secrecy around the Queen's sister's last testament, in which he hopes details of his birth are included.

Brown's case has been dismissed by lawyers for the royal family in a previous court hearing as that of "a fantasist seeking to feed his private obsession". But he insists he has the right to find out if the Queen's sister is his mother and he has appointed the law firm Christian Khan, which describes itself as having a reputation for "acting in political cases where individuals bring or defend proceedings against larger organisations, including the state". » | Robert Booth | Sunday, November 11, 2012
