Well if they are devout, Easter should be a cause for celebration. Although they are so private.

So there probably won't be anything public. There usually isn't.

Ok. Maria Teresa is from Cuba. But I dont know, why they didnt want her?!
In that time she lived in Switzerland, she was a student on university. She and Henri were in love.
Now she do a great work and she has five children.
So, was the reason, that MT was from Cuba?

sorry moderators, but to help those unfamiliar to the forum and these threads; to sum it up quickly, basically, it was henri's mother, josephine -charlotte, whom was against the marriage, becasue of the fact that mt was from cuba, with gd jean having a few reservations at first. but henri stood up and fought for mt, and gd jean agreed, however, j-c never fully warmed to her until the end. basically that's what i gather from all that i've heard about it. mt's family fled cuba during the communist revolution there in the late 1950's when batista himself fled; i believe she's related to batista via her mother, and her father had benefited greatly from batista's regime. so it only made since that they leave too. the rest is history, and more info can be found all around the threads. for the most part, i'm of the opinion that mt gets along quite well with most of her in-laws, and this can be seen from the many random snaps of the family interacting with each other at various events. hopes this helps. yes, guillaume has grown up quite well.

Well she is a great ambassador for Luxembourg and has 5 of the most wonderful kids. Plus that family seems very united, loving, and sincere. Now that speaks alot of both MT and GDH.

Besides, Batista wasn't the nicest guy to his people. To be related to that is kind of bad.
