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.
 
Princesses Alexandra and Irma

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.

Christoph´s physical constitution

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
 
Death of Prince Christoph of Hohenlohe (-Langenburg)

http://www.corriere.it/Primo_Piano/Cronache/2006/08_Agosto/10/fasano.shtml

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.
 
Death of Christoff Hohenlohe, known as "Kiko", in Bangkok

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.

That will be one important funeral because of the amount of royals that could attend. His family was close to the Bourbon family in Spain and one of his relatives was the first wife of the Duke of Huescar (The duchess of Alba's eldest son and heir).

I do not believe it. That I resemble to the funeral of his father dinn´t go important anybody. He was a personage more related to the "jet-set"" and the party of Marbella, the glamour got lost there it does more than one decade.

Besides, in this moment to no important personage it would happen to go to Marbella. For misfortune of the marbellíes the corruption has left a black fingerprint in the city. Most of the members of the town hall is in prison for corruption and urban development crimes. The topic occupies hours and hours of television, because besides an ex-mayor is the couple of Isabel Pantoja, a famous singer, and their relation was polemic from the beginning. This is a brief resume ... worse the above mentioned thing, nobody wants that they see them in Marbella.

And another thing, who was married with a Hohenlohe, was the second son of the Duchess of Alba, the Duke of Aliaga.

Ira of Furstenberg, dressed black completely, has removed forces from flaqueza to attend the funeral of her older son, Christopher Hohenlohe, in the church of El Rocío de San Pedro de Alcántara (Málaga). Kiko, as they always called to him, tragically passed away in Thailand the past day seven after spending eight days in a prison of Bangkok which it left in comma state towards a hospital of the Thailander capital.

The family has wanted that exequias is celebrated in Marbella and of the organization Hubertus de Hohenlohe has been in charge, the smaller son of Alfonso de Hohenlohe and Princess Ira, who traveled with her mother to the Asian country as soon as she had knowledge of the halting (without nothing made think then the fatal outcome) of his older brother. The mortal rest of Kiko will tomorrow be buried in the cemetery of San Bartholomew de Marbella where is the familiar pantheon in which his father, prince Alfonso de Hohenlohe is buried as well as his grandparents to pater to us, prince Max Hohenlohe and Piedita Iturbe, Marquise of Belvis of the Navas.

Ira, from mourning, hiding its eyes after glasses of black sun and with mantilla, arrived at the funeral by its embraced older son to Arriana, the daughter who his ex- husband, prince Alfonso, had with the North American Jackie Lane who, by the way, also attended the funeral mass.

“Era muy alegre. Tenía muchas ganas de vivir” (“Very glad Era. It had many desire to live”) are the only words that have guessed right to say before entering the temple. In the interior was his son Hubertus, accompanied by his fiancèe, Simona, as well as many of the faces so known the golden time of Marbella, count Rudy, great friend of the family already, Maria Luisa de Prusia, princess Beatriz of Orleans, Marisa de Borbón and Lita Trujillo.

Part-time isle resident dies after Thai jailing

Royal intrigue: The sudden death of Prince Hohenlohe

By Leila Fujimori


Services were held today in Spain for a European prince and part-time Hawaii resident who died earlier this month after being held in a Bangkok jail for allegedly altering his expired visa to facilitate his return to Hawaii. Jet setter Christoff "Kiko" Hohenlohe, 49, was heading back to Honolulu after a visit to Chiva-Som, a luxury spa in Thailand, to lose weight.

His Thai visa expired July 20, and Hohenlohe allegedly used a pen to change the date to July 29, the day he was to travel back to Hawaii, to avoid having to deal with immigration officials, friends said.
Immigration officials caught the alleged alteration and Hohenlohe was arrested on suspicion of forging documents, the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera reported.

Hohenlohe was in a weakened state after a significant weight loss, collapsed and was left on the jail cell floor for four hours before being taken to a hospital Aug. 5, where he possibly suffered a stroke, said Gaddo Cardini, who accompanied Hohenlohe's mother to Thailand, where she saw him the day before his collapse.

Thank you Stefanie and Purple Platinum for the media links - this subject has not been mentioned in the Italian media for nearly one week now.

The Star Bulletin article is very interesting as it mentions what could be a possible explanation for Kiko's underestimating the consequences of the alleged visa forgery in Thailand:

"Lifelong friend Dialta Alliata Di Monte Reale characterized Hohenlohe as a man "who lived in a different world -- very courteous, very nice, without worries, kind of a character -- unique nowadays, childish if you wish, like a big boy.

"He was very young for his age, never worked," she said.

"It was a silly action that drove him to death," said Alliata, an Italian princess who lives in Makiki Heights and is Cardini's sister. "

Well, you have to be really childish not to realize how tough the Thais are when it comes to correctness in entering and leaving their country. If the prince really was more than 9 days behind his visa's expiring date, he could have asked in his hotel for a contact to the embassy which deals with Liechtenstein's citizens (isn't the Swiss embassy handling these things for Liechtenstein? Like France does it for Monaco, Italy for San Marino and Spain for Andorra?) and ask the embassy to help him getting a new visa.

I don't think this would have been a problem at all! In romance literature they call a hero or heroine who behave that way a "TSTL" - "too stupid to live". Here we can see that it's not just a joke but that really bad things can happen. But rest in peace, prince Christoph.
 
prince Christoph

Was he really in Thailand to loose his weight????????
 
Apparently, yes. Judging from the photos released during the last two weeks, Kiko definitely had a weight issue. I was surprised to read that he stayed in the "diet resort" just for about a week. How culd he expect to loose so much extra weight in such a short time? I wonder what do they do in that "health center". Maybe he was in poor conditions when he was put in jail, who knows.

In addition to that, my impression is that some of these frequent-travelling jet-set people may feel protected and untouched by the troubles that "commoners" have to face everyday. They count on friends and acquaintances nearly everywhere, the right phone call to the right person is often sufficient for them to avoid long queues at immigration offices and the burdens of bureaucracy. That's possibly why they tend to underestimate the possible consequences of their actions.
