Prince Alexander the son of Fürst Karl Friedrich has no interest to became Head of the family and the Family business and has other Plans for his Life. So the Fürst sought for another solution and 2 foundations were made, one for the Business and for the Family. The new Heir is Prince Aloys, the older son of his brother Ferdinand
Thank you, Stefan, for this snippet!
I wonder, how these foundations look like. Because they can be problematic: The family fortune is so-to-say "frozen" in these funds. And in the case of external shocks or other troubles it might be impossible, to manage them actively, to sell parts etc.

Yes, but his ex-wife was noble and she’s Alexander’s mother. Nina de Zomer, his current wife isn’t going to have any children with Fürst Karl. Anyways, Alexander just doesn’t wasn’t to take on the responsibilities of the headship and the running of the family companies among other things so it has nothing to do with his marriage to his American bride and you are partially right the marriage is not the issue.Perhaps because he sees his future in the US? I doubt the father will have problem with his daughter-in-law not being a member of the nobility as he himself married a non-noble woman as well.
Which jewels? You mean the sapphire jewels? Weren’t those ones owned by Johan-Georg of Hohenzollern, ex-husband of Princess Birgitta?I think this could also be a reason that last year several of the Families Jewels have been sold at auction.
