Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon, was known throughout her life as the Queen's "rebel sister." Born into royalty but second in line to the throne, Margaret carved out a unique path that often challenged royal conventions.
Her life was marked by glamour, controversy, and a fierce independence that set her apart from other members of the Royal Family. From her famous romance with Group Captain Peter Townsend to her eventual marriage to photographer Antony Armstrong-Jones, Margaret's personal life was constantly in the public eye.
Despite the constraints of royal protocol, Princess Margaret became a patron of the arts and a style icon of her era. Her parties at Kensington Palace were legendary, attracting artists, musicians, and intellectuals from around the world.
