A collection of items that belonged to Prince Phillip’s cousin, Lady Patricia Mountbatten, is due to go under the hammer soon. Patricia Edwina Victoria Mountbatten, the 2nd Countess Mountbatten of Burma, was the great-great-granddaughter of Queen Victoria and the eldest daughter of Lord Louis Mountbatten, Prince Charles’s great-uncle and mentor. She was also the Prince’s godmother. With close ties to the British royal family, she lived an extraordinary life surviving the IRA blast that killed her father, her mother-in-law and her teenage son in 1979. The British aristocrat passed away in 2017, aged 93, and now 350 items that she acquired and inherited during her life are going up for sale. It gives a rare glimpse at into royal life with everything from lavish jewels, a bracelet (and toy robot) once owned by Queen Victoria and some (very) surprising fashion accessories going up for auction.
