Did the princess from the Tsar really lose her memory?

The actual final hidden gravesite of the Tsar and his family was found a few years ago and DNA analysis confirmed all members dead except the young Tsar and one sister. The woman claiming to be Anastasia proved, through DNA testing, to be an imposter.
"Two skeletons were not found - Alexei, the 13-year old heir to the throne; and one of his sisters, either Maria or Anastasia. Anastasia received worldwide notoriety before the bodies were even found when rumors spread that she alone had survived the execution. Hollywood has made films based on this legend. Anna Anderson helped to fuel these rumours and gained a measure of notoriety through her claims to be Anastasia, and her supporters claimed she knew information about the Romanovs that only an intimate member of the family would know. However, DNA testing on Anna Anderson's remains indicated she was an imposter. The Russian Orthodox Church refused to acknowledge the remains as genuine."

Its generally authentic, with some faulty representations. Mia became surely the princess of Spain in the process the 1500's, and became a trifling peasant. Her grandmother became the great Ezmerelda, a creative queen of her day did infact take her in and re create her as a princess. inspite of the shown fact that the movie depicts a incorrect account while she dances, for the queen in no way did dance. The sequal to Princess Diaries tho is a Hollywood address issues that would desire to have occurred. i'm hoping i responded your question :)

The woman who pretended to be Anastasia( Anna Anderson) was not. The DNA confirmed it. When the bones of the Tsar and his family were found ( in 1991) , only two were missing, Alexei and ( there is controversy of who) Either Anastasia or Maria.

No, the woman, who claimed to be Anastasia, was really a Polish seamstress that heard about the "missing" heir to get out of her dreary life. She put on an act. It worked.
The real princess was killed separately, but at the same time, as the other Romanovs. Documents showing that were released after the Soviet Union fell.

Genetic studies have confirmed that the woman believed to be Anastacia wasn't actually her since the DNA determined that she wasn't related to the royal family.

It was of course figured that she died with her parents and brothers and sisters but many years later a woman surfaced who claimed to be Anastasia but I dont believe it was ever proven to be true. A sad story of man at his worst!!
And Gentle M its a true story read the Russian history and you will find them there!!!

No she was never found, the lady you refer to was a liar and after she died they did a DNA test on her and it did not match anyone in the Romanov dynasty.

As far as I know, she was never found. There was some conjecture that she lost her memory and thats why she never claimed her linage, but until she is found we won't know for sure (if at all).
