Date: 2007-11-29 02:44 am (UTC)Women were admitted to the Order in 1971.[19] In 1975, Princess Alice, Duchess of Gloucester, an aunt of Elizabeth II, became the first to reach the highest rank, Dame Grand Cross.[19] Princess Alice (whose maiden name was Lady Alice Douglas-Montagu-Scott) was a direct descendant of the Order's first Great Master,[52] and her husband, who had died the previous year, had also held that office.
I happily accept the Damehood. I am long, long overdue for a hot springs jaunt!
