I worked in a nursing home all through college and took care of a few people who were public figures that were essentially abandoned by their families. One was a pretty famous guitarist from the 50s and 60s who had dementia. He was a crotchety old man and would spit at everyone, but as soon as someone started playing rockabilly music, he'd start tapping and dancing and humming and being a sweetheart to everyone. I found old videos of him playing guitar and would play them for him regularly, it was kind of like music therapy for him. I fully believe that these poor women were tossed aside and left to be forgotten. Look at how the royal family treats mental issues regarding family members now. Outwardly advocating for speaking to someone, but don't encourage it in their own family so word doesn't get out that they *gasp* aren't perfect.

Thank goodness my downs syndrome sister was born into our family and not to the royal family, she was much loved and when we lost her at the age of 65, her funeral was beautiful for her and about her, it was as special as she was.

It is commonly believed that the mental illnesses that plagued Katherine and Nerissa were inherited from their mother, Fenella, whose family (the Trefusis family), was known for members that were "mad." The other three cousins (Idonea, Rosemary, and Etheldreda) weren't members of the Bowes-Lyon family. They were members of the Trefusis family through their mother, Harriet Fane, who was the elder sister of Fenella Bowes-Lyon.

I never understood the obsession with the royal family

it’s crazy how they were denied and dismissed for being mentally disabled but f*cking each other in that family is/was normal.

Princess Margaret was disgusted at her mother for this.

My daughter is autistic with an intelectual delay to know thst if she would of been born to a family like this or at those times she would been thrown into a place like this breaks my heart. How can people be so evil

I can’t see this video without referencing an episode of ‘The Crown’ titled ’The Hereditary Principle’. I’m happy it was mentioned.

Here’s a thought: look at how the British press dealt with Princess Di, how that affected her mental health, and then think about how that would impact someone with severe developmental delays and/or other mental health issues.
I’m not suggesting that they operated out of enlightened compassion or anything like that at all; but to my mind, they might have accidentally done the best thing possible at the time by never letting the press know that they existed.

the idea of "mental equivalency" is more or less BS. Anyway, this happened to so many disabled people throughout history (and today), but while the royal family could have paid to keep them at home with all the specialists they wanted, they chose to put them here.

If they are capable of such ignominy, one can easily imagine the rest: for example a murder, a crime disguised as an accident!

Absolutely shocking how disgusting this is to leave your own family and not help them at all
36 |
That is sickening shutting the sisters for being sick and not even acknowledging them
55 |
I found this shocking. I understand that when these young women were 'placed' in this institution by their parents, such things were not uncommon in society then. However, once the family had discovered that they were still alive, they should have done much, much, better. Better than a £125 cheque per year, better than zero visits or abandonment.

Who watching this after her passing
40 |
All that money and they didn’t even get private care
13 |
I bet there’s a lot more skeletons in the Royal Closets that have never been brought out in the open.

It is terrible how these women were treated. The video does point out that it's only recent times that attitudes towards mental health and physical/mental development issues have changed. People were still sent to asylums, mental hospitals, and the like into the 1960's and 70's. Also upper class families make up just so many people in society. A larger percentage of patients are people in lower and middle class families because it's not just rich families that had this attitude. So while you 100% can criticize how the Bowes-Lyon cousins were treated, there are people in this comment section who act like there probably aren't hidden relatives in their family trees for the same reason. Maybe the real criticism should be how society as a whole treat people and not just one segment of society because this happened to a LOT of people across the socio-economic spectrum.

In 1992 I spent a week at Earlswood and met Catherine 'Tinky' Bowes-Lyon. She was very sweet. The staff told me she was Royalty and they were pretty disgusted about them hiding her away. As far as I remember, family didn't visit. Ironically the time I spent there was part of a Prince's Trust Volunteer course.
