He also looks like a strange cross between Britain's Prince William and Spain/France's Luis Alfonso de Borbon. Almost like if you overimpossed both photos together to get the Prince zu Hohenlohe. He has a pronounced house of Austria chin, is there a Hapsburg on his past?

No Habsburg blood, but his paternal grandmother was Princess Margarita of Greece and Denmark, a sister of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, and his paternal great-grandmother was Princess Alexandra of Edinburgh/Saxe-Coburg & Gotha.

Does anybody have any information about the unmarried daughters of Princess Alexandra of Hohenlohe-Langenburg (nee Princess of Great Britain and Ireland)?

Princess Alexandra ('Sandra') (1878-1942), the daughter of Prince Alfred, Duke of Edinburgh (and later Duke of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha) and Grand Duchess Maria of Russia, married 1896 Ernst, who became 7th Fürst zu Hohenlohe-Langenburg. Their two youngest surviving children:

• Princess Alexandra (1901-1963)
• Princess Irma (1902-1986)

Both daughters spent their time looking after their mother during her regular health crises (real and imagined), and when Alexandra died in 1942 they were considered too old and too limited in social experience to make suitable marriages. Princess Irma, who had recurrent health problems, outlived her sister by over twenty years.

According to corriere.it the son of princess Ira Furstenberg died in prison at Bangok. He was staying in jail because of having falsificate visa in his passport. The reason of dead is unknown until now.

Bunte has the story, too, mentioning that Ira has visited her son in prison some days ago:

[Stefanie]

He looked so pitiable overweight and bloated during his last years. Like a man who´s just all alone and has got nowbody that cares for him. It´s quite sure that he might have suffered from diabetes. I don´t understand why Ira and his brother allowed that things came to that stage. Both brothers seem to never have found their way in life. Both never married or are known to ever have had a serious relationship.
MAY HE NOW REST IN PEACE

Today's edition of corriere.it contains interview with princess Ira and several photos. Until now the reason of death of prince Christof is unknown, his mother is surprised about his being in diabetes coma- neither she or his friends knew something about his being diabetic. Due to this tragic death she's shocked and her only desire is to know the reason of his death and to give a funeral to prince Christof.

Christopher of Hohenlohe dies in Thailand at the age of 49

The circumstances still are for clarifying. Christoff Hohenlohe Furtenberg, major son of the prince Alfonso de Hohenlohe and the princess Ira de Furstenberg, died last weekend in Bangkok (Thailand) without up to the moment the reasons of the death are known. The princess and her minor son, Hubertus, are in Thailand to deal with the steps necessary for the repatriation, still it is not known when they will be able to come to Spain. The mortal remains of the Alfonso de Hohenlohe's first-born one will rest in the familiar pantheon of San Bernabé's cemetery, in Marbella, where in the year 2003 his father was buried.

Apparently, Kiko, since they preferred that they were calling him, was passing a few days of vacations in the Asian country. He, of forty nine years, had chosen Hawaii to live but as all his family he had the constant need to travel, for Kiko there were no borders. He had born in Lausanne in 1956, when his mother only had sixteen years and his father thirty two. Of child Switzerland, France, Italy lived in Mexico, Liechtsentein, and, since not, Marbella, where his father was the maker of the tourist development of the Costa del Sol. When he was adult, he chose The United States. First Los Angeles and later Hawaii. He was not devoting himself to the familiar business, say those who knew him that he was nice, nice and a lover of ' dolce vita '. In three occasions he managed to announce his marriage. First a Greek young woman, later the daughter of a Venezuelan ambassador and finally a Saudi princess, nevertheless he never married.

[Debbies]

Italian media updates still offer conflicting information: the sudden death of Christoff "Kiko" Hohenlohe upon being jailed in Thailand could be due to a virus, according to La Stampa newspaper (owned by the Agnelli family), diabetes (of which one can be unaware if it has not been identified), and hard beating by fellow prisoners is still seen as a possible cause of his death (Corriere della Sera).
This case has hit the news in Italy as Ira Furstenberg, Christoff's mother, is very popular here.
According to an interview to Hubertus Hohenlohe (Kiko's brother), his brother's body will be released this weekend and will arrive in Marbella on sunday. Funerals should take place this coming wednesday, 16th August, in Marbella at 12:00 or 15:00pm.
