Constantine

Police are investigating the scenario of suicide - The 45-year-old was a financier, Prince Michael's son-in-law and married to Gabriella, whose godfather was former King Constantine

The 52-year-old man, who was killed last night in the "Saints Constantine and Helena" resort near Varna, is a Ukrainian citizen, according to unconfirmed information reported by the Bulgarian National Television (BNT).

On the shoulders of his three sons and his grandsons, the late King Constantine was led to his final abode near the graves of his parents and other ancestors, in Tatoi.

The first time I ever spoke with former king Constantine was shortly after the publication of my book "The Rape of Greek Democracy: The American Factor" in 1997. The phone rang and I heard a deep voice say: "Good evening. This is the king." It took me a moment to realize who it was exactly, but that call was the first of many conversations about history over the course of many years to come.

A reported 1,000 police will be deployed for the funeral service and burial of former King Constantine Monday, according to Greek media.

Constantine attended the elite Anavryta Classical Lyceum, Greece's first Western-style, boys-only boarding school, which was founded in 1940 and re-established for the 1949-50 academic year with the express purpose of ensuring that the heir to the Greek throne received a "proper" education.

Constantine, the former and last king of Greece, who won an Olympic gold medal before becoming entangled in his country's volatile politics in the 1960s as king and spent decades in exile, has died. He was 82.

"I was saddened to learn my former colleague, Constantine Mitsotakis, has passed. We worked together on a number of pressing issues, but none more important than removing Iraqi forces from Kuwait following their brutal invasion in 1990. When it came to upholding international law and enforcing those tough UN sanctions against Saddam Hussein, my friend Constantine was solid as a rock.
