She has one elder sister, Olga, two younger sisters - Maria and Anastasia and a younger brother Alexei. Out of all of Tatiana's siblings, she was her mother's favorite companion. She was tall and a lot like her mother and the classical beauty of the family with auburn hair and grey eyes. Tatiana was extremely close to her older sister Olga, who was only 18 months apart. Tatiana and Olga shared a bedroom and were called "The Big Pair", while Olga's other two younger sisters - Maria and Anastasia - whee called "The Little Pair." She was also the leader of her brother and sisters, and they called her "Governess." Tatiana was the one who usually took charge of everything, which didn't bother the oldest, Olga.
