is william that tall?
I think she's more like 5'6" or 5'7". Basically everyone will look that short next to Felipe (except Eva Sannum).lamass said:i thought letizia was really short. like 5'2" to 5'3" .

I think he'll set a new record for tallest King of England/Britain. I think Edward I (Longshanks) holds the record at 6' 2". Charles I was the shortest at 5' 1" (Dang, that's shorter than me, quite an "accomplishment")sara1981 said:yes he is tall also he is 6'4 in Britain historian the people in the news says that

Thanks you for the information,ysbel.It's really great,Queen Margrethe is too much tall.ysbel said:Margrethe is either 5'11" or 6'1" A column in Roskilde Church where the Kings of Denmark are buried has height markings for several monarchs. Christian I was tallest followed by Peter the Great who was 6'8" or so. The next tallest was Christian X, Margrethe's grandfather who was around 6'6-6'7.
You have to scroll down a bit to get the heights.

kelly9480 said:EIIR is 5'2" barefoot (the website lists her height when she's wearing shoes). Her mother and sister were 5' (though some say Margaret was just under 5').
William is 6'3" but Longshanks was 6'4" so he won't be the tallest British monarch.
Harry's 6'2".
Charles is 5'10" and Diana was 5'10 1/2".
Andrew is the tallest of EIIR's sons, and he's around 5'11" or 6'.
Edward seems to be the same height as Charles.
The Duke of Windsor didn't make any state visits in his 11 months as king. Court mourning would have kept him in Britain for 3-6 months, until around July 1936, so the height was probably marked while his father was still on the throne.
The Duke of Gloucester has visited Denmark several times and attended Alexandra zu SWB's wedding, but he's never made a state visit. Only monarchs can make state visits, but he's been sent to Scandinavia for official visits before.
Hereditary Prince Knud wasn't taken out of line to the throne, his nieces were added to the line and moved ahead of him. He had succession rights until his death.

My own mother was 5' even for most of her life but now I doubt it (though she holds on tight to her 5' hihihi).
