The branches of ancient sounding surnames of Russia have intricately intertwined in the centuries - and all thanks to the once tumultuous love affairs. In a series of those romantic stories, in their time struck the minds of contemporaries, all the heroes and heroines broke the law. And with him - and then - and the then moral foundations, and the tenets of faith, and public opinion ... Even the autocrat Alexander II broke the holy vow, given to him at the wedding with a German princess, called in Orthodoxy Maria Alexandrovna. Violated the law and the young princess Katenka Dolgorukova, becoming the mistress of the Russian Tsar. And - Natalia Dubelt, Pushkin's daughter, leaving her husband and three children and fled to Germany to his Prince Nicholas of Nassau.
Only in the conjugal union of young people - Svetleischei Princess Olga Yurievskaya, - the Tsar's daughter, and Count Georg von Merenberg, the grandson of the Russian genius, there was nothing criminal, as if for them, happy newlyweds, parents took on themselves all the pain and sweetness of sinful love. "Morganatic marriage"-this harsh social sentence no longer hovered over their heads.
