Some years ago, when I was working on the first edition of my book, Queen Victoria's Descendants, I was able to offer conclusive and new information about Duke Albert of Schleswig-Holstein's natural daughter, Valerie Marie. She was born on April 3, 1900, at Liptovsky-Mikulas, Hungary, where she was adopted by a Jewish couple named Schwalb.
Shortly before his death in April 1931, Duke Albert, a grandson of Queen Victoria, wrote to his daughter and told her the truth. Although she had been raised by a Jewish couple, Valerie Marie was baptized Roman Catholic.
In 1939, Valerie Marie was able to change her surname to zu Schleswig-Holstein.
I was the first to write in detail about Valerie Marie's life. I obtained a copy of the official letter that her aunts Princess Helena Victoria and Princess Marie Louise wrote to Nazi authorities to establish the fact that she was not Jewish. She was officially acknowledged as their niece.
Duke Albert never told anyone the name of Valerie Marie's mother, although he stated that she was a woman of noble birth.
But she was not "Baroness Bertha von Wernitz", an alleged Prussian noblewoman, who died giving birth to Valerie Marie. "Baroness Bertha von Wernitz" never existed. She was not Valerie Marie's mother.
My intuition tells me that Valerie Marie's mother was probably a member of a Hungarian noble family, who had a relationship with Albert, got pregnant, gave birth quietly, and made arrangements for the baby to be adopted. There is no evidence that Valerie Marie's mother died in childbirth.
Do not fall for the "von Wernitz" story. It is not true. Never was, never will be.
Baroness Berta Marie Madeleine von Wernitz died the day after Valerie was born.

How are you so sure that Baroness Berta Marie Madeleine von Wernitz never existed?
No birth registration. Considering the source, pure crap. I was the first to write about Valerie's father in the 1980s. the von Wernitz family does not appear in any noble directory, such as the Freiherrliche for the Handbuch des Adels or even the Titled Nobility of Europe (1914) or in anyone's family tree apart from the fantasy creation that one man who has a fake family tree ..there no baron von wernitz ... and to add to the story that proves this wrong: Albert told his daughter and his sisters that the woman was of high birth not a mere fake baroness ... If you believe this nonsense, you are very gullible.

You are absolutely right.
Two sources do not even mention such a person as Baroness Berta Marie Madeleine von Wernitz, namely:
Wernitz, Familie v., Druckgenealogie des Gesamtgeschlechts (1961)
and
Wernitz, Genealogie der Gesamtfamilie (Briefadel, 1915 mit Stammreihe
bis 1941).
I asked Mr. Petr Vitek of Baroness Bertha Marie Madeleine von Wernitz from Today I received a message from Mr. Peter Vitek from Liptovský Mikulás, Slovakia. I received an answer from him that the story with the baroness was made up on purpose and that the baroness herself never existed
Thank you. created by a fake prince .... I told you.
