La princesa María de Rumanía parece estar dando un paso atrás en su papel como representante pública de la casa real. María es la más joven de las cinco hijas de los difuntos reyes Miguel y Ana de Rumanía. Anteriormente miembro muy activo de la familia real, María no ha llevado a cabo un compromiso público en tres meses, lo que es *bastante* inusual para un miembro de la realeza rumana que vive en el país. Actualmente, la Casa Real no ha anunciado nada sobre por qué Mia, como se conoce a la princesa en famille , ha dejado de realizar funciones en nombre de la Casa Regala. Es posible que la Custodia de la Corona, la madrina de Mia, haya decidido que la princesa ya no debe tener un perfil público. Si este es el caso, entonces hay matices de destituciones chapuceras y desafortunadas de otros miembros de la familia real rumana en la historia reciente.

The last public event that Princess Marie attended were commemorations held on 25 October to mark the anniversary of the birth of her father, King Michael. Before that, the princess had attended the reburial of her grandmother Queen Mother Helen of Romania. The reburial of the Queen Mother took place between 18-19 October 2019. The reburial of Queen Mother Helen was attended by Custodian of the Crown Margarita, Prince Radu, Princess Sophie, Princess Marie, Prince Nicholas, and Princess Alina-Maria. Mia has not been since in public since then. Marie missed the thirtieth anniversary celebrations of the return of the Royal Family in January 2020. She was also absent from the Christmas celebrations at Săvârșin, which Mia has always attended since she moved to Romania several years ago.

In 2015, Princess Marie moved from the United States, where she had lived for some decades, to live in Romania full-time. This transition was done at the request of her sister Margarita, who desired that Marie became an active member of the royal family in the country. Over the past four years since then, Princess Marie has carried out a large number of engagements on behalf of the royal house.

One wonders if this will be a permanent farewell to yet another high profile member of the Romanian Royal House. Only time will tell…
