as i see all the brothers married to aristocrats and noblewomen. do you think josephine charlotte didn't like maria teresa as the future grand duchess, as she wasn't royal (however, i think she comes from a rich cuban family)?

I think that Josephine-Charlotte didn't like Maria-Teresa at first because it is her eldest son and you know how mothers can be. lol But not all their children married noblewomen or aristocrats. Helene Vastur Prince Jean's wife isn't noble which is one of the reasons he gave up succession. Josephine-Charlotte didn't like her and their first child was born before their marriage in 1987 (Marie-Gabrielle was born in 1986). But I think like any good mother J-C was just watching out for her eldest son and now if anything she at least respects M-T.

Josephine-Charlotte still does not like Maria Teresa. Maria Teresa has spoken out about how J-C has tried to destroy her marriage and drive a wedge between her and Henri.

I'm not sure I just know that she was a main reason that he gave up his rights of succession.

And My Bags I do to remember hearing that M-T cried a lot because J-C didn't like her I guess no one really knows whats going on there.

Why can't J-C just understand that her children are all grown up? She shouldn't control them.

Luxemburger Wort writes today, that Princess Sibilla yesterday 13 July 2004 at 2 p.m. gave birth to a son at the Maternité Grande-Duchesse Charlotte (weight 3380
g, height 51 cm). The little prince of Nassau has been named Jean André Guillaume Marie Gabriel Marc D'Aviano.

From the paper:

Prinzessin Sibilla schenkt viertem Kind das Leben
Das "Luxemburger Wort" wünscht dem jüngsten Spross der Familie und seinen Eltern alles Gute für die Zukunft

Wie uns auf Anfrage hin vom großherzoglichen Hof bestätigt wurde, schenkte Prinzessin Sibilla, die Gattin von Prinz Guillaume, gestern um 14 Uhr in der Maternité Grande-Duchesse Charlotte ihrem vierten Kind, einem Knaben, das Leben. Der kleine Prinz hört auf den Namen Jean, André, Guillaume, Marie Gabriel, Marc D´Aviano. Er wiegt 3 380 Gramm und ist 51 Zentimeter groß. Er ist nach Paul-Louis, geboren 1998, und Léopold, der zusammen mit seiner Zwillingschwester Charlotte im Jahr 2000 das Licht der Welt erblickte, der dritte Sohn von Prinz Guillaume und Prinzessin Sibilla.

Wir wir des Weiteren in Erfahrung bringen konnten, sind Mutter, Kind - und der Vater wohlauf.

Das "Luxemburger Wort" wünscht dem jüngsten Spross der Familie und seinen Eltern alles Gute für die Zukunft.
