Season four of The Crown is here, and the story of the original wild child of the royals – Princess Margaret, played by Helena Bonham Carter – has enraptured fans.

As the youngest daughter of King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, she was the only sibling of the current Queen.

Viewers have finally been given a glimpse into Princess Margaret’s family life, as a mother to her two children, David and Sarah, with her ex-husband Antony Armstrong-Jones.

Both of them appear in the royal portrait that concludes season two, but don’t play major roles in The Crown season four.

David was born on November 3, 1961, at the time he was was fifth in the line of succession to the British throne, but now he is the 21st.

He went on to open a shop in Dorking where he built and designed furniture for a few years, before launching his own company, David Linley Furniture Limited.

Now, it’s known as Linley, and according to Town & Country, the brand has designed for high-profile clients like Elton John and Valentino.

Speaking to The Telegraph, he said: “I inherited my love of design from my father, the Earl of Snowdon, who was always fascinated by pushing the boundaries of an object–working out how to make it touch the ground in two places rather than three.”

He has been married to Serena Armstrong-Jones, who is the Countess of Snowdon, since 1993.

The pair have two children, Margarita Armstrong-Jones and Charles Armstrong-Jones.

When Antony Armstrong-Jones died in 2017, David became the 2nd Earl of Snowdon.

Princess Margaret’s only daughter, Lady Sarah Chatto, was born on May 1, 1964 and at the time was seventh in line to the throne – although she is 24th today.

Like her brother, she went on to have a career in the arts, as a well-regarded painter and vice president of the Royal Ballet.

She was also a bridesmaid at the wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana, and is godmother to Prince Harry.

In 1994, she married the actor Daniel Chatto, and the couple has two children Samuel and Arthur.

When Princess Margaret died of a stroke in 2002, both Lady Sarah and David started a charity in her honour – the Princess Margaret Fund – which supports stroke research.

Lady Sarah And Lord Linley

Early life and education[edit]

Sarah Armstrong-Jones was born on 1 May 1964[1] at Kensington Palace in London. She was christened in the private chapel at Buckingham Palace[2] on 13 July 1964.[3] Her godmothers were Prudence, Lady Penn (née Stewart-Wilson), stepsister of Jocelyn Stevens; Jane Stevens, the wife of Jocelyn Stevens and one of Princess Margaret's ladies-in-waiting; and Marigold Bridgeman.[4] Her godfathers were David Fane, 15th Earl of Westmorland, and her father's friend Antony Barton.[4]

Lady Sarah is herself a godmother to Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex,[5] Lady Rose Gilman,[6] and Lady Louise Windsor.[7]

Linley

Lady Sarah and her brother, David, then Viscount Linley, grew up in the nursery of Kensington Palace, Apartment 10.[8][9] They were raised with a nanny called Verona Sumner, although their parents, most especially their father, were comparatively hands-on (for the time), with their father teaching them to build things and be creative.[8] They spent weekends, depending on with which parent, at either Nymans or Royal Lodge.[8] Holidays were given to the royal estates at Sandringham and Balmoral, where Lady Sarah did a lot of landscape painting.[8]

Lady Sarah was a bridesmaid at the wedding of Charles, Prince of Wales, and Lady Diana Spencer. She accompanied her mother and brother on an official visit to China and Hong Kong in May 1987.[8]

She attended Bedales School, which she left with a single A level in Art.[8] She enrolled at the Camberwell School of Art.[10] She also studied art at the Royal Academy Schools.[10] After her studies there, she took a two-year sabbatical to travel with her father to India, where he was employed to photograph the production of A Passage to India.[8] The film's producer, John Knatchbull, 7th Baron Brabourne, gave her a job as an intern, assisting the wardrobe department (without credit)[4] and studying wood gilding under her father's cousin Thomas Messel.[8] Returning to England, she enrolled at Middlesex Polytechnic (renamed as Middlesex University since 1992).

Professional life[edit]

From 9 December 2015 to 23 April 2016, the Redfern Gallery exhibited 'recent paintings and drawings' by 'Sarah Armstrong-Jones.'[11]

She has been exhibiting her work, always under the name Sarah Armstrong-Jones, at the Redfern Gallery since 1995.[12] Her work has won awards: The Windsor & Newton Prize in 1988 and The Creswick Landscape Prize in 1990.[12]

She is vice-president of The Royal Ballet,[4] an appointment she accepted in 2004, following the example of her mother, who was also a patron of the Royal Ballet until her death two years before.[8]

Marriage and issue[edit]

Lady Sarah met Daniel Chatto during her sabbatical in India with her father in the 1980s. He was also working on a film, albeit a different film—Heat and Dust.[13] Chatto proposed to her with a 'vintage cluster ring.'[14] She married Chatto on 14 July 1994,[1] the marriage being officiated by the Reverend Chad Varah at St Stephen's, Walbrook, in the City of London. The bride's wedding gown was designed by Jasper Conran.[13] The Snowdon Floral Tiara which is made out of three brooches secured her veil.[15] Her bridesmaids were her half-sister Lady Frances von Hofmannsthal, Zara Phillips (daughter of her cousin Anne, Princess Royal), and Tara Noble.[13] The couple have two sons:
