Russian royalty. He was born in Borga in Finland. His parents were Grand Duke Cyril Vladimirovich and Grand Duchess Victoria Feodorovna. His birth occurred after the collapse of the Russian Empire. In 1924 his father declared himself de jure Tsar of all the Russias having satisfied himself that Tsar Nicholas II and his son Tsarevich Alexis had been murdered in Ekaterinburg in 1918 and Grand Duke Michael Alexandrovich had been murdered in Perm also in the same year. In 1938 Grand Duke Cyril died which meant that Grand Duke Vladimir became de jure Tsar and Head of House of Romanov. In 1948 he married Princess Leonide Bagration-Moukhransky. Together in 1953 they had one daughter Maria, current curatix of the Russian throne. Shortly before his death he visited Russia in 1991.
