Two Liechtenstein Princesses who are second cousins are going to marry this year:

Princess Sophie Barbara Maria (b.16 April 1984) [daughter of Prince Eugen of Liechtenstein (b.1939) & his wife Maria Theresia, nee Countess von Goess (b.1945)] will marry Count Clemens Hoyos (b.1981) [youngest of three children of Countess Isabelle von Seefried auf Buttenheim (b.1949) & her husband, Count Martin Hoyos (b.1947)] on 16 June.

Princess Livia Margherita (b.7 April 1977) [daughter of Prince Franz of Liechtenstein (b.1935) & his late wife Laura, nee Malvezzi Campeggi (1941-2011)] will marry Richard Turner on 23 June.

Close birthdays' dates, close weddings's dates...and, what;s more, both cousins are youngest of four children (But Livia's sister, Laurenzia, lived only 6 days) and last ones who marry.

What a coincidence!
