She's not the King first cousin, her father is. She's daugther of HRH Prince Adam Czartoryski, son of HRH Princess Maria de los Dolores of Borbón Dos Scilias (sister of the later Contess of Barcelone, King Juan Carlos mother) and HRH Prince Jose Augusto Czartoryski.

I belive that she is HSH Princess Tamara Czartoryski (not Borbón, because isn't her last name)

Princess Tamara Czartoryski was on Australian Princess (the episode that just went on air tonight in Australia, Channel 10). Paul Burrell introduced Tamara as Princess Tamara Czartoryski (I think he also said Bourbon) to the four remaining contestants. Tamara introduced herself to the viewers, in private, to the camera man, as "the first cousin of the King of Spain" and that her title comes from the Polish side of the family.
Tamara was also accompanied by Princess Anna Theresa. Anna introduced herself, in private, to the camera man, as Princess Anna Theresa of (I couldn't exactly recall all of it but...here goes nothing...) Bourbon de Orleans (there were a lot more names preceeding the Bourbon-Orleans bit). Anna said that she was the "niece of the King of Spain". Anna also went on to say that her title comes from the Brazil-Portuguese side of the family.
Well, anyway Tamara and Anna went to a tea party that the four contestants were hosting. Tamara was on a table with Prince Michael (head [or soon to be head] of an important Polish noble family that "shaped Poland to what it is today". Prince Michael was acting as an undercover prince hence the name Mikush Sapieha) and two girls. Anna was (by herself) with two girls.
There was a lot of fuss made by Jean Broke-Smith over (one of the four contestants) Leanne not eating because Anna wasn't eating. There was another situation where Leanne made a mistake in regards to the tea, and realized her bobo when she was pouring the tea (pot) into Tamara's tea cup and swore infront of Tamara.
Just want to end by saying that Tamara looked very pretty and that Anna had a very strong accent.

looks like they're claiming all the connections they can muster up to the King of Spain just so they can legitimise their status.:rolleyes: :D okay i'm being bad here, as they're all really related to the king, but this is just plain name-dropping of sorts to gain fame (which i think is a bad way).

The only Brazilian Anna Theresa I can find is (Princess) Ana Theresa, daughter of Prince Alberto Orléans-Bragança, but she was born in 1995. I'm not sure where the Australian Princess Anna Theresa fits in.

I assume this is Prince Michael Sapieha-Rozanski, who was born sometime after 1980. His mother is Princess Cristina Orléans-Bragança, and his father is Jean, Prince Sapieha-Rozanski. Michael's grandmother is more illustrious, being the sister of the Countess of Barcelona, the mother of the King of Spain.

The connections are interesting...
Take three Princesses of Bourbon-Two Sicilies, all sisters:

• Princess Dolores > grandmother of Princess Tamara Czartoryski
• Princess Maria de las Mercedes > mother of King Juan Carlos
• Princess Maria de la Esperanza > grandmother of Prince Michael Sapieha-Rozanski.
 
Tamara was in the second series of a TV show in Britain called The Games . It's where 'celebrities' compete in sports in order to win.

I say celebrities lightly as one of the contestents was the man who cheated his way to one million pounds on the British 'Who wants to be a millionaire?'! :lol:
 
:ermm: I have to say that, we, the Spaniars dont know who is that Princess
 
Interesting, Tamara speaks of 'the' Polish Royal Family. Any Poles like to nominate which one of ther many Princely families is the Royal family?
 
I *think* she was on American Princess as well.
 
Thanks magnik for the links. Tamara doesn't seem all to bothered whether or not she introduces herself as the King of Spain's first cousin or just cousin. On Aussie Princess she intro. herself as the "first cousin" and in one of the video links above she was just the "cousin". I've always wanted to know what being "twice removed from the family" meant [could someone message me or tell me]?

Princess Anna Theresa looked certainly older [around 16-19] and was wearing clothes suited to [older] teen's.

Back on Aussie Princess...Prince Michael Sapieha is a magnificent artist. He drew the English country landscape for Amy.

Good point! :rolleyes:
I recall reading a line or two about her family, what I can't remember is if it was in a bio book online or some magazine (Hola or Point de Vue?). But they are part of the King's extended family. And by that we are easily talking about every crowned and uncrowned head and aristocrat there is. If there is so much King name dropping must be because her family relations are closer to the Borbon-Spain than the other crowned heads around.

Here are some pictures of (as we say in Spanish speaking countries) of La Czartoryski:
Tamara Czartoryski

Tamara Czartoryski


and her ancestor Adam Casimir, Prince Czartoryska (1734-1823)- 1793
"... statesman and candidate to the polish throne (1764) and later Austrian Field Marshal...


Now on the family:
History of Siedlce the 3rd paragraph mentions the family taking over a town in Poland:
..Additionally Siedlce was plundered during the Swedish invasion, destroyed by plagues and diseases spread by the occupation of various armies.
At that time the ruined city was taken over by the Czartoryski family, who taking care of the town's development, reinstated former privileges and granted the citizens favourable new ones in 1693, 1727 and 1728...

Their history in 18th Century Poland along with the Lubormirski and Poniatowski families

Prince Adam Jerzy Czartoryski and his quarrels with the Ottoman Empire in the 19th Century

And last bonus link:
the name with a different spelling as Chartoriyski’s (Czartoryski) family, this link talks about another branch of this very international family. When you scroll down click on the link that says 'castles'. It provides a map with historical castle locations, I can't understand the language (German?) but maybe someone of our fellow Royal Forum members could tell us if they belong to the Czartoryski family.


Hope this short history and trivia about La Czartoryski and her kin gives you all something interesting to read about the young celebrity aristocrats.
Good night :)

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´m form spain and i dont know who is Princess Tamara
 
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.

She is not the King's first cousin, her father is. She is daugther of HRH Prince Adam Czartoryski, son of HRH Princess Maria de los Dolores of Borbón Dos Scilias (sister of the later Contess of Barcelone, King Juan Carlos mother) and HRH Prince Jose Augusto Czartoryski.

Her father Prince Adam Czartoryski is not HRH,but HSH...


But,it is also interesting that her paternal grandfather,Prince August Czartoryski (husband of Princess Maria Dolores of Bourbon Two-Sicilies) is himself the grandson of Princess Marguerite d'Orleans,granddaughter of King Louis Philippe of the French and daughter of Princess Victoria of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha,who was in turn first cousin of both Queen Victoria and Prince Albert,as well as niece of King Leopold I of the Belgians...

Very impressive connections indeed :)

So,she can say that she is first cousin once removed of King Juan Carlos...

First cousin x times removed of Queen Victoria...

First cousin x times removed of Prince Albert...

graet-great grand niece of King Leopold I of the Belgians.

etc.
