Albert's people are aware of Dawn and have kept her from getting close to him at other events.

Pointless? I am not sure! I hope the people have finally noticed her!
There is more to this and that guys site than meets the eye.

Perhaps it is best to discuss those who are confirmed and actually members of an Italian Noble or Princely family rather than pretenders.

If there is nothing new to discuss on the subject of Aurora, there is no need to rehash old news. All posts will be deleted without notice.

Thanks for your cooperation!

Tosca, I will probably be thrashed again but her real name is Vivoamore...but her claim is actual nobility... Count Lorenzo DePetris Fraggianni

I did some research on the Italian net, and againg, found nothing about the Vivoamore family. Sorry Anthony.

Instead I found few lines about Count Lorenzo de Petris Fraggianni ( for the noble families' surname the preposition "de" is written with a small "d", that is: de Petris or degli Oddi di Laviano. And a noble should know that... Surnames spelled with a capital "D" aren't of noble stock. I.e. De Lazzari or Delazzari, Degli Incerti, and so on...)

On that website
araldicailritorno.ilcannocchiale.it* -*Famiglia Fraggianni

Lorenzo de Petris Fraggianni is styled as "baron" and still according to the website he died almost two centuries ago.

That's all I could gather. Again, I never heard of her before coming across your posts on this and on other forums, and I guess almost nobody here in Italy know of that countess or have ever heard about her. So I cannot say if she' a pretender or not, but I'm more inclined to think she is.

I think I owed a reply to you, Anthony.

I was wondering if anyone had any photos of Olimpia Aldobrandini's 3 children that she has with David Rene Rothschild. I would also like a photo of Chateau de Reux if anyone can find such a photo.

Thanks to all who respond.

If I'm correct they must be 3rd or 4th cousins.

Maybe they are 2nd cousins, as Margherita Agnelli, Lapo's mother, and Rodrigo Brandolini d'Adda, Bianca's father, are first cousin.
Descendants of Giovanni Agnelli and Clara Boselli
