Does anyone know about the family and background of Astrid Kohl? I've heard her described as the daughter of an Italian industrialist, but that's about it. If she's the same Astrid Kohl mentioned in this 1993 W Magazine article, she is an old friend of the Miller sisters and a longtime fixture of the jetset.

W magazine (Aug 93)

I've perused the general threads on the Liechstenstein royals and haven't seen anything on her. But I apologise if I started a thread on something that's been covered.

Aha! This 1995 Tatler's article on the Miller sisters describes Astrid as the niece of Helmut Kohl and "the sort who....buys Renoirs when she is depressed".

Tatler's Magazine (June 95)

And a 'Royal News' blurb from the time of her marriage gives her parents' names as Theodor Kohl and Ingrid Schlechta.

She is lovely, and kind of resembles Grand Duchess Maria-Teresa of Luxembourg. How long have they been together?

Thanks for the replies. I do see the resemblence between her and Grand Duchess MT - both plump and very pretty.

My condolences to the Princely Family.
The Princess was also the mother in law of Princess Marie d'Orleans, eldest daughter of the Count of Paris and wife of Prince Gundakkar, son of Hans Moritz and Clotilde.
Is it known where will she be buried? In the Furstliche Gruft in Vaduz?

How sad! Does anyone know how he died? Had he been ill? He was only 59. I am very sorry for his family's loss.
