Jeanne Marie died in 1964. 

Her daughter [[Mary Malcolm]] was one of the first two female announcers on the [[BBC One|BBC Television Service]] (now BBC One) from 1948 to 1956. She died on 13 October 2010, aged 92. ''The Guardian'' published an obituary mentioning Mary Malcolm was the granddaughter of King Edward VII. It was rectified: 'This obituary of the postwar BBC television announcer Mary Malcolm said her mother, Jeanne-Marie, was the daughter of Lillie Langtry and Edward VII, the only one of his illegitimate children he acknowledged. Although Langtry was Edward VII's mistress, the father of her daughter was acknowledged to be Prince Louis of Battenberg, grandfather of Prince Philip.'<ref>{{cite news | url=https://www.theguardian.com/media/2010/oct/14/mary-malcolm-obituary | title=Mary Malcolm obituary | work=The Guardian | location=London | first=Philip | last=Purser | date=14 October 2010}}</ref> ''The Times'' published an obituary mentioning Jeanne Marie Langtry had grown-up believing she was the daughter of Edward VII: 'Malcolm had an aristocratic pedigree. She was a granddaughter of Lillie Langtry, actress, beauty and mistress of the Prince of Wales, later Edward VII. Her mother, Jeanne Marie, was conceived and born out of wedlock, and [Lady] Malcolm grew up believing that she was the daughter of a king. Only later did she learn that her father was Prince Louis of Battenberg, whose legitimate children included the future Earl Mountbatten of Burma.'

'Her mother was frequently assumed to be the illegitimate offspring of Edward VII (when prince of Wales). She was not. Jeanne-Marie's father was (or at least was acknowledged to be) German-born Prince Louis of Battenberg. He anglicized his name on settling in Britain and it was his grandson Philip Mountbatten who in due course would marry into royalty and become duke of Edinburgh and consort of Queen Elizabeth II.'<ref>Philip Purser, "Malcolm, (Helen)
