1. Andrew Andreevich
UPDATED: Andrew Andreevich Romanoff passed on November 28th, 2021.
Prince Andrew Romanoff (born Andrew Andreevich Romanov; 21 January 1923 – 28 November 2021), a grand-nephew of Nicholas II, and a great-great-grandson of Nicholas I, was the Head of the House of Romanov. His father, Prince Andrei Alexandrovich (1897-1981), left Russia aboard the Royal Navy ship HMS Marlborough in December 1918 and managed to escape the horrors the Revolution visited upon those Romanovs who stayed in Russia.
Prince Andrew was brought up in England. He took part in WWII as a simple sailor, and later emigrated to the USA where he worked as an agronomist, a broker, a real-estate agent, a carpenter, and many other jobs. Prince Andrew became known as an artist, although having no formal art education. He has been married twice and has three children. Andrew Andreevich lived with his wife, the American painter Inez Storer, in Inverness, California.

Olga Andreevna was educated privately at Provender House in Kent, England, the 13th century stately home that belonged to her mother. She inherited the mansion and the 30 acre (12 ha) estate in 2000 and raised money to have it restored, then made it partly open to the public.

Prince Rostislav Rostislavovich Romanov (born 21 May 1985) is currently the vice-president of the Romanov Family Association. He was born and raised in the USA and received an education in art at the University College Falmouth. “My family never taught me that I was a special person. My parents didn't want me to go around talking about myself as a descendant of the Russian tsars,” Rostislav said in an interview.
Prince Rostislav is the only living Romanov who often travels to Russia. He once worked as a designer for the “Raketa” clock factory and designed a watch dedicated to the 400th anniversary of the House of Romanov. He speaks Russian a little (but constantly improves it) and is a Russian Orthodox believer. Given that none of the three sons of the current head of the House of Romanov Andrey Andreevich has male offspring, one day Rostislav is very likely to become the Head of the Romanov family.
Prince Rostislav is the only Romanov who moved back to Russia, even though temporarily. In 2009, he lived in Russia for two years and studied Russian. He currently lives in East Sussex, England.
