King Constantine was Prince William’s godfather, however William pull out of the memorial service held for the Greek King in February and cited ‘personal reasons’.
Constantine II was Greece’s last king, reigning for three years from 1964 before a military coup, and then a referendum, led to Greece becoming a republic.

He was King Charles’ second cousin, and first cousin once removed of the late Prince Phillip.
He and the Duke of Edinburgh were close friends and sailing partners, and these close ties with the UK monarchy made the country a prime country for relocation after the referendum in 1974.
For most of his years in exile, he lived in Hampstead Garden Suburb, London, and was said to be especially close to Charles, who made Constantine godfather to his first son – William.
In 2013, almost 40 years after leaving his homeland, Constantine returned to live out his final years in Greece.
Prince Nikolaos is one of five children – Alexia, Pavlos, Theodora, and Philippos.
