Princess Margaret's new beau

September 25, 1948

Princess Margaret's new beau is handsome and 6 feet tall. He is also very rich, and is heir to a historic title. However, the Marquess of Blandford is a "little dazed and embarrassed in his role of suitor in rumored royal romance."

Lord Blandford, who is known as Sunny, is the heir apparent to the Marlborough dukedom, and the Blenheim estate. His paternal grandmother was Consuelo Vanderbilt.
Recently, Sunny was linked with Sharman Douglas, daughter of the US ambassador to the Court of St. James.
Britons are still talking about the party that the Duke recently gave at Blenheim for his son and Princess Margaret. It is "no secret" that Lord Blandford is "sensitive about the stories that, which have him wooing Margaret."

Princess Margaret turned 18 in August. She is the younger daughter of King George VI. Her older sister, Elizabeth, was married last November to Prince Philip of Greece and Denmark. Elizabeth, who is heiress presumptive, expects her first child later this year.
