Renate Henne born Kerkhoff, formerly Homey, formerly Thyssen, formerly Wunderlich might have a certain superficial and gold-digging aura but she is a shrewd and successful businesswoman on her own.

But "hopes on a good match for her daughter"? Her daughter Gabriele Thyssen (born as Homey) has been married to Karl-Emich Prinz zu Leiningen and to Karim Aga Khan IV. She came out both marriages as a very wealthy lady (which she already was, as member of her adoptive Thyssen family). I doubt Gabriele is prying for a third husband.

I doubt that too. Her family was already wealthy, she just came out of two marriages, even wealthier.

They could pass for younger and older sisters rather than mother-daughter!

Yes they look so much alike

Is there any news on the real members of the Leiningen family?

As a Pair with a Billionaire...

Bunte online, the German tabloid, reports about an alleged relationship between Princess Gabriella zu Leiningen and the industrialist and major stock holder of Porsche and Volkswagen, Wolfgang Porsche - who is a multi-billionaire as one can guess by his name.
https://www.bunte.de/royals/royals-...ningen-neues-glueck-mit-wolfgang-porsche.html

Bunte online reports, that they were seen together in Venice in a trattoria at an intimate dinner. The families of both know each other since decades and now, where both are well aged, he is 79 - she is 59, they are alledgedly love struck. That is at least, what friends of both have to tell. He is btw still married with another woman.

Well, a Porsche would definitely fit very well together with her past relationships...

Gabrielle zu Leiningen, née Homey, seems to be in a relationship with Wolfgang Porsche. Earlier she was married to Prince Karl-Emich zu Leiningen and later to the Aga Khan.

Mr. Porsche is in the process of divorcing his wife Claudia, who suffers from dementia. They were married since 2019.

A new dispute in the house of Leinignen as the present Fùrst Andreas announced his younger son Hermann will take over the family business, bypassing the elder son Ferdinand. The root cause seems to be a disagreement between father and son about finances.

New strife in the Princely House of Leiningen

I can not find the original Bunte article online.

The Furst apparently has been pouring money into a failing business of the younger son. The elder son discovered this and questioned his father, which was not appreciated and led to his removal as director of Schloss Waldleiningen. The two brothers have been estranged.

I wonder whether Andreas himself being the younger son in a family conflict unconciously favored his younger son over his elder son.
