Maharani Gayatri Devi, Rajmata of Jaipur (born May 23 1919 as Princess Gayatri Devi of Cooch Behar), was the third Maharani of Jaipur from 1939 to 1970 through marriage to Sawai Man Singh II, and is currently styled (unofficially) as the Rajmata, or Queen Mother. Following India's independence and the subsequent abolition of the princely states, she became an extremely successful politician.
Gayatri Devi was also celebrated for her classical beauty and became something of a fashion icon in her adulthood. Her father, Prince Jitendra Narayan of Cooch Behar, was the younger brother of the Yuvraja (Crown Prince). Her mother was Princess Indira Raje of Baroda, an extremely beautiful princess and a legendary socialite. Early in her life, her uncle's death led to her father ascending the gaddi (throne).
Gayatri Devi studied at Shantiniketan, and later in Europe, where she travelled with her mother and siblings, then studied secretarial skills in London.
