Her mother wear her hair long when she was young and she was very attractive.
I have found two images Princess Marie-Astrid of Luxembourg .The first dates from year 1962 (8 year old) where you can see a Marie-Astrid with more than shoulder length hair, the second from 1966 (12 year old) on which she wear her beautiful blond hair a little shorter just above her shoulders. The third picture dates from 1970 (16 year old) the periode (the fourth to sixth image also) (1968-1974) during which she wear her beautiful hair very long. I saw a photo on which she has waist long hair and looks very beautiful:) . It was a rarity at that time to find a princess with such long blond hair like in the fairytales. On the last photo you see a Princess Marie-Astrid in 1974 (20) after she cut her long blond hair. It was a pity for her lovely hair (she never had long hair again!). Nevertheless Princess Marie-Astrid of Luxembourg was and is still at the age of 50 one of the most beautiful princesses the world ever saw!:o Last edited by drimal; 11-12-2004 at 10:21 AM. |

I didn't even know about these 3 Princesses and my family is Austrian. Are they related to the Hapsburgs in any way?

Hello, for all the fans of Princess Marie-Astrid and her beautiful daughters I would recommend the follwing link, I've created:http://www.theroyalforums.com/forums...982#post135982
:) In this thread you see gorgeous photos of Princess Marie-Astrid as a beautiful child and recent photos of her, recent and old photos of her beautiful daughters.:) My nationality is Luxembourgish and I'm a great fan of the Grand Ducal family, especially of Princess Marie-Astrid and her family (also Archiduchess of Austria) and of Princess Margaretha and her family. I'm so sad that we rarely see images of them in Luxembourg.  :) I would be very pleased if you would reply to these photos and sent others you have and which are not yet shown in the forum. Bye bye, drimal  Last edited by drimal; 12-14-2004 at 07:36 AM. |

Also being a monarchist, I don't think there was a requirement for the end of the monarchy. I think a transition from the autocratic Imperial Monarchy, to a Commonwealth of national constitutional Monarchies eg: Kingdom of Austria, Kingdom of Hungary, Kingdom of Serbia etc would have been more effective.
Perhaps such a transition would have done something to prevent the instability of the region in the century after the First World War.

Francesca B-Thyssen
It was Karl Habsburg who married Francesca Bornemizsa-Thyssen (I hope I got the name right). The marriage was quite controversial as she used to be a wild party girl, and the older - and more conservative - members of the Habsburg family objected to her. However, she was a quite demure-looking bride and hasn't been involved in any scandals since. It seems that her marriage is over and they are separated, but being strict Catholics they can't or won't get a divorce.

Archduke Karl of Austria (Otto's eldest son) is married to Francesca Thyssen. I don't know if the couple has split up, they are living apart anyways ... a pitty since they have 3 children. But they're still seen together at parties and family gatherings so maybe all is not lost yet ...? Last edited by Elsa M.; 08-09-2006 at 06:41 PM. |

As far as the Austrian glossies tell us, they have split up and meet at diverse social functions and family meetings so as not to aggravate the rest of the family and keep up appearances. Oh, well. Karl Habsburg always makes me grateful that Austria's become a republic, anyway.

Family fall-out
Quote:
However, the Archduke Otto, Karl's father and Head of the Imperial and Royal House, deemed the marriage to be "equal" and so Francesca is an Archduchess of Austria, Imperial and Royal Highness, and her children have full dynastic rights. . |

The house laws were changed in the early 90s or late 80s to allow marriage to women of noble rank or lineage. These marriages would be recognized as equal. Thus the problem with Francessca wasn't so much her title of Baroness per se. But rather she lacked a long noble lineage, and her family & lifestyle were somewhat questionable.

Archduchesses
Quote:
Archduchess Anna-Eugenie was born a Princess of Arenberg in 1925. Her parents were Prince and Duke Robert of Arenberg and Princess Gabrielle von Wrede. She married Archduke Felix in 1952, and died in 1997. Her husband, born in 1916, is still alive. None of their seven children have made particularly glittering marriages. Archduchess Yolande was born in 1923, the younger daughter of Eugene, 12th Prince de Ligne, and Philippine de Noailles. She married Archduke Carl Ludwig in 1950. One of their sons, Archduke Rudolf, has 8 children; the other son, Archduke Carl Christian, is married to Princess Marie Astrid of Luxembourg. One of the two daughters, Archduchess Constanza, married Franz Josef, then Hereditary Prince of Auersperg-Trauttson. Archduchess Xenia was the first wife of Archduke Rudolf. She was born in 1929, the daughter of Count Sergei Alexandrovitch Chernychev-Besobrazov and Countess Elisabeth Cheremetev. She married the Archduke in New York in 1953 and was killed in a motor accident in Belgium in 1968. Of their children Carl Peter married Princess Alexandra von Wrede; Simeon married Princess Marie Paloma of Bourbon-Two Sicilies; Maria Anna married Prince Pierre Galitzine; and Johannes was killed in a bicycle accident in Brussels at the age of twelve. Archduchess Anna Gabrielle married Archduke Rudolf as his second wife in 1971. She was born a Princess von Wrede in 1940, the daughter of Carl, 5th Prince (Fürst) von Wrede and Countess Sophie Schaffgotsch von und zu Kynast und Greiffenstein. They have one child, Archduchess Catherina. You will find family pics in the various Habsburg wedding threads in the "Old, New, Royal and Blue" sub-forum... http://www.theroyalforums.com/forums...splay.php?f=31 . |
