Faversham’s very own princess will reveal tales from inside the palace, disclose her deepest secrets and explore the roots of her fascinating family tree in a new tell-all book.
Olga Romanoff, 65, the daughter of Prince Andrew Romanoff who was the eldest nephew of the murdered Tsar Nicholas II – the last emperor of Russia – describes her regal life as a blend of Darling Buds of May and Downtown Abbey.
Once a potential bride for Prince Charles, Olga resides in the 13th century Provender House, tucked away in the village of Norton just off the rush of the A2 , and it's here in the spectacular 30-room home where she will be putting pen to paper and lifting the lid of life as a Russian royal.
She says that many of the stories will be from hundreds of hours sat upon her father's knee, learning about the riveting, yet tragic history of the Romanoffs.
Olga was home-schooled in Provender House before moving between London, Scotland and Kent and returning to the home permanently in 2000.
She is keeping quiet about most of the book but has revealed that her literary agent says there is already enough content for at least two books.
We do know that it will include the incredible history of the Romanoffs, such as the tales of her relatives Grand Duchess Xenia, Princess Irina Yusopov and Prince Felix Yusopov, who is believed to have killed the infamous Rasputin.
However, aside from the serious and tragic timeline, Olga wants to bring in some of the amusing anecdotes from her childhood, like her father rollerskating through the corridors of the palace.
Growing up she was never without a chaperone, she was home-tutored and had her very own ballet teacher, but she wants to talk about the hilarious time she jumped out of the window and ran off with her dogs.
Olga said: "It hasn't got a name as yet but it has got to be really catchy.
"It won't be your usual history book because it will be funny.
"I've got lots of things to do so I guess I'm working on it when I can, maybe instead of watching the television.
"I know what I want to say but it's just getting it all down.
"It will have amusing things and anecdotes and won't just be about my relatives, it will be up until the present day.
"The book will be in first-person, with my memories of my father telling me stories from the past.
"I think there will be a lot of stories that the average person would not expect of a Romanoff."
