When we think of princesses, our first response is to imagine a lady more akin to Cinderella than, say pre-makeover Mia Thermopolis from The Princess Diaries. But is the preconceived notion that women for royal families all around the world are stunningly beautiful an actual fact in real life? Well, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. And women – and men too – are beautiful in their own way. But of course, not everyone from royal decent can be considered pretty according to popular standards.
