Sorry, I don't have a picture, just a crappy discription. :P Anyway, he was in Vanity Fair recently when they dedicated an issue to royals...with Prince William on the cover. I wanna say his name was Boris, but I'm not 100% sure. He had long dark brown hair, brown eyes and the photo made him seem like he was an artsy type. Anyone know who I'm talking about?

Yes, you are referring to Prince Boris of Montenegro.
He is 23. Turns 24 on the 21st of this month. Currently studying decorative arts in Paris. He likes music, literature, drawing, traveling, cooking, roller-skating and motorcycles. In the Vanity Fair issue you see, photographs of his father and sister and a painting of his mother.
Personally, I'm not too fond of the Yugoslav royals, particularly of the "Crown Prince". I have my reasons but will not articulate them here at this juncture. Their are, however, quite a few internicine conflicts within the family (not just limited to Alexander v. Alexander).
I will write more when I have more time.

Hello Sean,
Thank very much for participating. You are most welcome to post your comments any time, since according to your posts in the ME section, your extensive historical and geopolitical knowledge as well as general culture are admirable and I enjoy in your remarks greatly. Not to mention that current debate on the above mentioned ME Forum makes an excellent resource of various information. To put it in a simple words - I love the way your mind works.
Personally I do understand your reasons for not holding Crown Prince Alexandar in particularly high esteem. Nevertheless, no matter whether they are monarchists or not, on one thing populous in Serbia do agree - it will take quite some time to convert perfect strangers with more than limited knowledge of their own language into (again) respected if not loved Royal Family. Let's see what time has to say.

Thanks Blueice for your informations!!!
Well its seems like they are still quite populars or close to their royals relatives!!!
Anyway there don't since to have much photos of them undertaking royal duties in their country!! So had they undertake anythings to improve their standing in their country?
Regarding your question about their activities in the country I should say that they are putting some efforts in a personal image and public profile direction. Basically, most of their actions are charity oriented as their entire PR seems to be, for that matter. Princess' Katherine and Jelisaveta have been very engaged in lobbying and requiring donations for various charities and causes in the country.
More details about Princess Katherine's efforts you should be able to find at royal family's official web direction (click on the link two posts above - ALL ABOUT YUGOSLAVIAN ROYAL FAMILY). Unfortunately, due to 'cold climate' between Crown Prince and Princess Jelisaveta, don't expect to find any details regarding her efforts, not on this web location anyway.
hi, a picture of Princess Jelisavetta of Yugoslavia. She is a full cousin to the Duke of Kent, Princess Alexandra and Prince Michael through her mother Princess Olga of Greece the sister of Princess Marina. Princess Jeliavetta is also the mother of Catherine Oxenburg the actress, who used to star in Dynasty.
Hi I thought i would add some pics i,ve been collecting for years of Catherine Oxenberg. i have had a crush on her for a long time in fact from when i was a very wee boy in her Dynasty Days. being blond, beautiful, royal, and a distant cousin of the Queen all helped in my estimation to make me like her more. Catherine Oxenberg has starred in a number of Hollywood movies and is married to Caspar van Dien who was in Starship Troopers a few years ago. Catherine has a sister and a younger brother. She is the daughter of Princess Jelisaveta of Yugoslavia. i hope you enjoy these pics and if you have any others of Catherine or of Princess Jelisavetta please post them here.

picture eight, Princess Jelisavetta (Elizabeth in English) of Yugoslavia, sorry i lost count!
picture 12 -i think - Caspar Van Dien, Catherine Oxenburgs husband. the couple have two children and act regularly together, most recently in the Omega Code.
one of Catherine Oxenberg most recent movies was the Omega Code - a blockbuster Biblical film - in which she co-starred with her husband Caspar van Dien. The couple have recently had a baby daughter i believe. also one other fact about Princess Jelisaveta, Catherine`s mother, is that she was at one point engaged to Richard Burton, thus keeping the Hollywood connection alive and well! :P
In Dynasty Catherine played Amanda Carrington, Blake and Alexis youngest daughter. In the soap- Amanda married a prince and if i remember correctly they were all assinated at the royal wedding in the cathedral. Alexis was played by Joan Collins. Catherine and Joan had nicknames for each other apparently `big bitch & little bitch` not very nice but funny!
There is no Yugoslavia!!!!There is Serbia and Montenegro!!King is called Karadordevic!!!!!Opa i Jivili i Hurrah!!!!

Hello Moody, thank you for participating.
You are right - Yugoslavia doesn't exist any more as a country. Still, it is Yugoslavia, not Serbia and Montenegro that Royal Family of Karadjordjevc were monarchs of. Besides, Aleksandar Karadjordjevic is not a King, he is still a Crown Prince.
However, Karadjordjevic dinasty is Serbian descended as well as Obrenovic dinasty who ruled the country before them. Montenegrin royal family is Petrovic Njegos.
