Princess Feodora was the first daughter of the Duchess of Kent, by her first marriage to Emich Carl, Prince of Leiningen. After her marriage to Ernst I, Prince of Hohenlohe-Langenburg on 18 February 1828, Princess Feodora moved to Langenburg in West Germany but kept up a constant correspondence with her younger half sister, Princess Victoria. She often sent drawings and watercolours with her letters back to England. -
