Princely House of Thurn und Taxis 2: July 2008 - July 2011

[Opal]

On the plus side, at least Bild isn't likely to say anything bad about the Princely House of Thurn und Taxis.

That would be great, but I fear at least 6-8 princesses would be needed
for a change like that
Rchat, that's indeed the main advantage

Here is a report at the German Boulevard magazine "Hallo Deutschland" about the 50th birthday of Princess Gloria of Thurn and Taxis:

And here a video:

Thanks for the video, which captured many important moments in Furtsin Gloria's life!
It is amazing how Furstin Gloria changed from the punk Princess into the conservative matron.

I have read in the former T& T threat, that Maria Theresia is Albert's favourite sister.
Is that true ? How come you to say that, did he ever metioned ?
( I have only noted, that Marie Theresia is always sitting or standing next to Albert first and after her comes her sister, but this can be a protocoll issue ??? )

Gloria von Thurn und Taxis attended the funeral service for Wolfgang
Wagner at the festival opera house on April 11, 2010 in Bayreuth,
Germany.
Wolfgang Wagner, long standing director of Richard Wagner opera
festival, was the last grandson of German composer Richard Wagner.

May Mr. Wolfgang Wagner rest in peace ... I assume that Furstin Gloria knew him well.
On a different note, Furstin Gloria appears to shed some weight and sunbathe too much.

[Seraphine]

Her skin looks much older than she is indeed....

Check this mexican article (from the magazine CARAS) about prince Johannes Thurn und Taxis. It says that the prince went a lot to Acapulco (México) because he really enjoy the discos (and young mexican boys?).

Last Friday, April 30, Princess Gloria celebrated her 50th birthday
with a big party at the Maxim's in Paris, France. 150 guests were
invited including Bianca Jagger and lots of German royalty and
family members, only Prince Albert was missing as to some car
races. Gloria had not planned to celebrate, but her good friend
Thaddaeus Ropac, art dealer and jetsetter, also had his 50th
birthday recently, so they made a "100 years.." theme out of it,
dress code "Smoking eccentric", as can be seen

It's been Gloria's night without doubt..

[magnik]

It's almost old good Gloria indeed

[Al_bina]

Thanks for the photos!
It is nice to know that Furtsin Gloria has not lost her spark.

I was wondering, does someone know how the journalist and football commentator Fritz von Thurn und Taxis is related to the family?
