It Is reported , that he approached his divorced wife Helena with a view tu offering a reconciliation, but that she declined the offer and the king Is consequently looking for a suitable bride. It Is a fact that for the Brat time In ten. years Carol spent hi summer holidays without Lnpescu," It Is also true that Prince Friedrfch of Hohen-zollern-Sigtnaringen, the king's uncle and the bead of the. Hohensnllern branch to which beliihs -thiH kihtr at ' Rbmanla, has been in Romania on an Important family mission at the court of his nephew. -Qneen Marie. Prince Nicholas and ex-Queen Elizabeth of Greece are in constant communication with Carol. The greatest secrecy surrounds these family councils.

Lu'pesca leads'a retired life In a vil la pn the outskirts of Bucharest. She seldom" appears n public and devotes sow most of her time to discreet char ity activities.
