Early life and education

Mary Lilian Lucy Josepha Monique Baels was born in Highbury, London, England, where her parents had fled during World War I. She was one of the nine children of Henri Baels from Ostend and his wife, Anne Marie de Visscher, a member of the minor Belgian nobility[citation needed] from Dentergem. Lilian was initially educated in English, but, upon her parents' return to Belgium, she attended the College of the Sacred Heart in Ostend, where she learned Dutch.[2] Lilian continued her studies in French at the Institute of the Sacred Heart in Brussels. She was also fluent in German.[2] Lilian completed her education by attending a convent school in London and attending finishing schools in France, Switzerland and Austria.[4]

In addition to academic work, Lilian participated extensively in sports, such as skiing, swimming, golfing, and hunting. Above all, however, she enjoyed, as did her father, literature and the arts. As a teenager, she was presented to King George V and Queen Mary of the United Kingdom at Buckingham Palace.
