Another young parents getting married:

Countess Maria Anna von Goëss (b.4 July 1989) [daughter of Count Johann Peter von Goëss (b.1946) & his wife Eva, nee Szczepanski (b.1949)] married Johannes Messner-Haidenthaler sometime this year; the previous year their son, Arthur, was born.

Maria Anna is the youngest of three children, only daughter and last one who marries.
Curiosity: her parents divorced in 1981 after ten years of marriage, when her brothers Johann Leopold and Johann Gabriel were, respectively, ten and six (they were already expecting Johann Leopold at the time of their wedding), but remarried in 1987, and two years later she was born.

Johann Leopold has a son and four daughters, Johann Gabriel - three sons.
