She looks so much like her mother it's not funny!!

 

[Marengo]

We have opened a new thread in the Habsburg subforum about the upcoming marriage of Archduchess Marie-Christine and Count Rodolphe de Limburg-Stirum. Look here.

 

[gabys]

Marie-Astrid and Margaretha both reside in Belgium now, I believe.but Marie-Astrid used to live in Switzerland

 

[MAfan]

I know she lives in Bruxelles, or however in Belgium...

 

[Next Star]

Archduhess Marie-Astrid of Austria and her family manage to live very private without that much media and press like other royals or nobles of the world.

 

[LadyLeana]

Don't they reside in Belgium?

According to this article about the wedding, they live in Geneva. (article in Dutch)

[randomlyKeira]

Does anyone have a photo of him? He had to have been at his sisters wedding last month...

This is who you are talking about right?

[Priest008]

Yes that's true! the wedding, any photos around???? I love weddings

Found one of the whole family at the Wedding on the 6th of December 2008, How lovely she is dressed! i am sure they will have a perfect marriage and I pray so that they do.

I found some more pictures
Here you can see her three brothers, Alexander is last and the next picture has Carl-Christian escorting his daughter down the stairs

 

[randomlyKeira]

That is Alexander on the right in the group photo of the wedding and on the left in the photo of him and his brothers, correct?

 

[Priest008]

Yes indeed, and here is another perfect photo of him and his sibling, how ever the eldest son is absent in this photo am I not mistaken, Alexander seems rather tall in comparison to his brothers.

Any way, does anyone have more photos or information on hwat's happenning right now with the family at the moment?, Post people post lets keep this one on the most famous topic list!

Alexander here can be seen at the front and in the second picture he is wearing a yellow top, to the left of the photo

 

[Priest008]

People hold on a second they have removed all photos I will be posting them again as soon as I get permission.

 

[Warren]

If they are copyrighted photos it's unlikely you'll get written permission to reproduce the photos here without payment.
The practical solution is to host them in a free image hosting account such as Photobucket and simply post the url links.
While you and Photobucket are then responsible for any copyright issues that may arise (which is unlikely) TRF is not breaking the law.

 

[Priest008]

Ok, EVERY ONE HERE IS THE PICTURE!

What beautiful children!!! They are, indeed, a fine looking family. Kudos to their parents!!

 

[Priest008]

Not only through physical looks, but the fact that they are very nice and easy going, and although members of Royalty, go down to everyone's level.

 

[Marengo]

I don't think that the Archduke Alexander holds a title at all. Officially he is just Mr. Alexander Habsburg, though you may refer to him as Archduke out of courtesy. The only ones with a legal title are his uncle Rudolphe and his cousin Carl-Christian (son of Rudolph), they are incorperated into the Belgian nobility with the title of Prince.

I don't think any non-reinging prince does ever wear a crown or coronet, apart from those in England at the crowning of a monarch/ Apart from that, walking around with a crown in public these would give the impression that you belong in the nuthouse.

3rdly: the Habsburg crowns are either in Vienna or Budapest these days, owned by a museum:

And Archduke Georg and family, since Hungary recognizes royal and noble titles.

About Hungarian Holy Crown:
Holy Crown of Hungary - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

And it is not a simple crown. Read this: Doctrine of the Holy Crown - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

And the crown is not one of the Habsburg's crowns. In Hungary the Holy Crown has a king and not the king has a crown.
