Can she be considered a Princess of Leiningen, considering her father was disinherited when he married her mother? I assume he also lost his rights as his brother is now the head of the family. I understand that for the German law it makes no difference as it does not recognize titles.

According to German law her name is Princess of Leiningen. For the nobility she is a "non-noble name-holder (nicht adliger Namensträger), as her mother was not noble and the marriage was not dynastically recognized by the family.How she is treated within the family depends on them, really. And if her family acknowledge her, then most of the nobility besides the absolute sticklers will do, too.

And the two young men are definitely Tatiana's husband Clayton Reynolds and Nadia's fiance Ian Baker.

That confirms my suspicions. The baby's last two names were for his grandfathers. I thought it likely the first two were for his godfathers, which is pretty traditional in the German houses. It seems I was correct.

Is there any new of Ferdinand and Viktoria's baby? I thought they were due in February but I have seen nothing.

Great News. Congratulation to the HP couple on the news of a new baby joining the family. Pss Alexandra Ehrengard will be a big sister, to a brother or sister. The best to the family.

Can anyone confirm if Princess Stephanie of Leiningen (b. 1958), the younger sister of Furst Andreas, is still living, or if she has passed away?

A page on the Heins Bruns website lists her as having died in 2017, but other sources do not include this. And there is no mention of her death in the Royal Deaths thread for 2017.

Thanks!

.Never alone , but with ambitious Mother Renate Thyssen ;

She may be overprotective like most mothers, I am sure she hopes for a good match for her daughter

 

[Duc_et_Pair]

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.
