Ahead of Elizabeth and Margaret: Love & Loyalty, find out everything you need to know about Peter Townsend
September 26, 2020 - 19:35 BST hellomagazine.com Princess Margaret's love affair with Peter Townsend, the equerry to King George VI, has been documented many times before, whether on hit Netflix show The Crown or in books and programmes about the vivacious Princess. The Queen's younger sister, who passed away in 2002, is now the subject of BBC documentary, Elizabeth and Margaret: Love & Loyalty, which airs Saturday.
Unfortunately, things were considerably more complicated with Peter, since divorcees weren't allowed to remarry in the Church of England, which Princess Margaret's sister was the head of. As such, the couple were urged to wait until Margaret turned 25 and no longer needed her sister's permission to marry.Despite waiting the allotted time, the pair were still met with problems within the monarchy.
