Story[]
Queen Genevieve is the widowed mother of Princess Anneliese and is the former queen of an unnamed kingdom. She didn't have enough money to care for her people until Anneliese discovered many geodes in the mine. When Genevieve's adviser, Preminger kidnapped Anneliese in an attempt to cancel her wedding to King Dominick, Erika disguised herself as Anneliese and fell in love with Dominick. She was revealed to be an impostor and Genevieve's only hope was lost. She nearly had to marry Preminger to save her kingdom, but Anneliese arrived at the wedding, after almost being killed by him. He was arrested and Anneliese married Julian, and Erika married Dominick. After finding geodes in the mine, the kingdom was restored.
Physical Appearance[]
Genevieve has light skin, blonde hair tied in a bun and dark blue eyes. Her dress is purple, and has a purple cape. She also wears a golden crown, a gold necklace, pearl earrings and spectacles.
Personality[]
Queen Genevieve is a goodhearted queen who cares deeply for her kingdom. She is worrisome and desperate at times, but only because she needs to help her people. She cares for Anneliese's well being but sometimes has no control in being the best mother she can. But when Princess Anneliese has gone missing she can be worried and upset. She is willing to do anything for her kingdom and it's people even if it means marrying Preminger, who she dislikes.
Relationships[]
Preminger[]
At first, Queen Genevieve trusted Preminger and seemed to even like him a bit when she said: "Oh, Preminger, what would I do without you?" But when Preminger asked the Queen to marry him, to become king, Genevieve got angry with him. She saw that Preminger was selfish. The Queen reluctantly agreed to marry Preminger to save her kingdom, but she really wished she wouldn't need to do it. Since Genevieve didn't like Preminger anymore, she didn't even want Preminger to hold her hand at the wedding and made it clear to him that she was only marrying him to help her people. When Queen Genevieve was asked if she'd take Preminger to be her husband, she hesitated because the last thing she wanted to do was to marry Preminger. But finally, she answered "yes". When the wedding was interrupted, and Preminger's plan was revealed, the Queen sent her guards to get Preminger. After the wedding was over, Queen Genevieve was relieved that she didn't marry Preminger.
Princess Anneliese[]
Queen Genevieve loved Princess Anneliese with all her heart. Anneliese was the most important thing to her. Genevieve cared about her daughter, Anneliese, very much and wanted her to always be happy. Even when Genevieve heard that Anneliese had run away, she wasn't angry. She was worried that something might happen to her or that she could be hurt. When the (fake) Princess Anneliese returned, the queen was very happy and relieved. But when she was told that the (real) Princess was dead, her heart was broken. When Anneliese returned and convinced the queen that she was the real Princess, Queen Genevieve was more than happy.
Trivia[]
- Her husband possibly ruled together with her as king and queen regnant. It explains why Princess Anneliese didn't ascend to the throne as the new queen after her father's death, as well as why Preminger can be a king by marrying her. However, in the Barbie universe, real-life titles and royals' roles are not as they would be in real life. In real life, kings and queens are usually referred to as "Your Majesty", but often in Barbie movies, they are referred to as "Your Highness".
- She shares her name with Genevieve from Barbie in The 12 Dancing Princesses and Genevieve from Barbie in Rock 'N Royals.
- Her crown resembles Rapunzel's Mother's from Barbie as Rapunzel.
Quotes[]
- (To Anneliese) "I'm so sorry, my darling, but as you know, it is vital you marry King Dominic. It is the only way to take care of our people."
- ("Have you set a date for the wedding?") "Will a week from today do?"
- "We have to find her. She could be hurt!"
- "Oh, Preminger, what would I do without you?"
- (Preminger: "Smile, my dear. You're about to become my queen.") "Only to save my kingdom. Your fortune will help them all."
- "I want you to be happy, but it is our duty to take care of our people first."
