約翰王子

約翰王子出生於英國諾福克桑德靈厄姆莊園，他的父親是喬治五世（愛德華七世國王和亞歷山德拉王后的兒子），母親是瑪麗王后（公爵和公爵夫人泰克的長女）。

約翰王子在四歲的時候他的癲癇第一次發作。因此他沒有參加1911 年 6 月 22 日他父親的加冕禮。12 歲那年，他的病情有惡化，於是搬離皇宮送到遠郊的小村莊的別墅，遠離大眾視線，由保姆“拉拉”看護。

1919 年 1 月 18 日凌晨，約翰王子與木材廠死亡在上午國王和王后接到王子的死訊。

後被葬於皇家園林桑德靈厄姆，與亞歷山德拉王后（約翰王子的奶奶）的兒子約翰（只存活了一天就死了）葬在一起，兩者相差46年。

以下是瑪麗王后關於約翰王子的日記

約翰王子(3張)

An entry in the Queen's diary reads: 　 Lalla Bill telephoned from Wood Farm, Wolferton, that our poor darling Johnnie had died suddenly after one of his attacks. The news gave me a great shock, though for the little boy's restless soul, death came as a great release. I brought the news to George & we motored down to Wood Farm. Found poor Lalla very resigned but heartbroken. Little Johnnie looked very peaceful lying there… For him it is a great release as his malady was becoming worse as he grew older and he has thus been spared much suffering. I cannot say how grateful we feel to God for having taken him in such a peaceful way, he just slept quietly… no pain, no struggle, just peace for the poor little troubled spirit, which had been a great anxiety for us for many years ever since he was four. Prince John was buried 21 January 1919 at Sandringham Church the Church of St Mary Magdalene , Norfolk. Titles, styles, honours and arms
