Anastasia moved to the Philippines

As if the recent airport brawl isn't enough action to keep the Filipino entertained, a recent finding by a granddaughter might be the key to the debate wether Anastasia escaped the Romanov massacre by... drumroll... moving to the Philippines!

COMPARE THE PORTRAITS The picture at left is that of the writer’s “Grandmama Tasia” when she was a young girl. The one at right is the portrait of the young Grand Duchess Anastasia Romanov of Russia, which she found on the Internet. CONTRIBUTED PHOTOS
Photo is from the Inquirer. Follow the story here and a part two will go on print tomorrow. Exciting!

Fleeing to the Philippines at 18, she was brought to either a monastery or orphanage in Manila before she met Lope Pelayo, the author's grandfather. The story is just so exciting.
