He ruled as the last king of Greece from March 1964 until the country’s monarchy was abolished in 1973.

He and his wife, Princess Anne-Marie of Denmark, lived in Hampstead in north London for many years before he sold his property in 2013.

He ruled over one of the most turbulent periods in Greece’s political history.

Constantine was also a competitive sailor and Olympian, winning a gold medal in the 1960 Rome Olympics in the Dragon class.
