Her correct name is "Czartoryska" with "a" at the end, name "Czartoryski" with "i" at the end is reserved for male

Maybe she let herself be introduced as Czartoryska y Borbon - the Spanish way to use both father's and mother's last name? I think I read somewhere that she run the London marathon lately? Have to check.

I found this short biography of her on the web:

Tamara Czartoryski-Borbon

Princess Tamara Laura Czartoryski-Borbon was born in 1978 the daughter of Prince Adam Karol Czartoryski, who is a cousin of King Juan Carlos I, King of Spain.
HRH Princess Tamara appeared in Channel 4's The Games in 2005, with the likes of Anna Walker, and according to the Channel 4 site Tamara left school at 15 and pursued a career in show jumping, presented a Thai Kick boxing show as well as appearing in Full Throttle Famous for Granada and Celebrity Five Go Dating.
This all has the ring of plausibility. Tamara Czartoryski-Borbon's father is a martial arts expert, and Tamara was a showjumping expert in Channel 4's Faking It in February 2004. In Nancy Banks-Smith's review of the show it refers to Princess Tamara having acted in Carry On:
"There were three judges in Faking It (Channel 4). Lord Patrick Beresford, silver-haired scion of a noble house. Dr Dallas Burston, trust him, he's a doctor. And Princess Tamara Czartoryski-Borbon, Carry On actress and horsey cousin of the King of Spain. Which do you think is the fake? That was my feeling too. Even with a swig of Pol Roger, I found it hard to swallow Princess Tamara Czartoryski-Borbon...."
Princess Tamara, who ran in the 2006 London Marathon is a keen snowboarder, water skier, skydiver and kick boxer. She has presented Thai Kick Boxing, Full Throttle and Celebrity 5 Go Dating.
She has also filmed a children’s show It’s a Girls Thing for Sky One Mix and the ITV drama The Stepfather.

from: Biography of Tamara Czartoryski-Borbon

And here is the info about the marathon:

I get the feeling that she doesn't live in Spain. Her accent sounded totally like someone brought up in England.

Her connection with Spain is only that her paternal grandmother was the sister of King Juan Carlos's mother. Although her grandmother, Pss Dolores of Bourbon Two Sicilies, is from a junior line of the 'Spanish' Bourbons, their title came from Italy.

This all seems to be genuinely true from the genealogies - she is not a fake. Just a rather 'modern' sort of princess.

If she is claiming first cousin, then her father and the king are cousins. Since her father is a cousin, that makes her a first cousin.

I understand the the "one removed" is to indicate generations. So is it is twice removed it is two generations past. But I'm not 100% sure on the generations removed thing.
