Theodora was born on 9 June 1983 at St Mary's Hospital, London. She is the younger daughter and fourth of the five children of the deposed Greek king Constantine II and his wife, Anne-Marie of Denmark.
On 20 October 1983, she was christened in a Greek Orthodox ceremony at the Saint Sophia Cathedral, London.
Education
Theodora attended Woldingham School, an all-girls boarding school in Surrey, England, between 1994 and 2001. After a gap year spent at St Philip's College in Alice Springs, Australia, Theodora attended Brown University where she received her Bachelor of Arts on 28 May 2006 in Theatre Arts, having also attended Northeastern University in Boston. Subsequently, she undertook graduate studies at Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design. The wedding was due to take place in Spetses in May 2020, but was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic. The wedding was postponed a second time, in 2023, following the death of her father.
On 28 September 2024, Theodora married Kumar in a Greek Orthodox ceremony officiated by Metropolitan Dorotheos II of Syros at the Metropolitan Cathedral of Athens. Two of her brothers, Crown Prince Pavlos and Prince Philippos, and her nephew Prince Achileas-Andreas, served as groomsmen. The veil and tiara have been worn by all of Queen Ingrid of Denmark's female descendants. The family was deprived of citizenship in 1994 when the former King Constantine refused to acquire a surname, as required by law for all Greek citizens.
