In this thread (posts 213 and followings) it was discussed about Patrizia de Blanck who seems to be not a real countess as she pretend but the daughter of the last countess Dario, Lloyd Dario.

I was wondering if someone can help me with two questions:
(1) Does anyone have information or pictures of the children of Margherita Agnelli by her second husband, Russian Count Serge de Pahlen?
(2) Does anyone know where I can find a genealogical information of present day member of the House of Medici?

The House of Medici became extinct back in the XVIII century, if I'm correct. However there's another noble family called Medici, they're originally from Bologna, and are not related to those of Florence.

Prince Giovanni dell'Aquila d'Aragona and his wife Ginevra Elkann had their first child, a boy, on the 15th of August. The baby received the name Giacomo.
Ginevra is the daughter of Margherita Agnelli and his first husband Alain Elkann.

What a nice name! My congratulations to the happy parents!
Btw, about the Medici Family, there are two branches still existant: the Princes of Ottaviano and the Marquesses of Marignano; both them descend from the main branch of the Family, extincted in the XVIII century.

I believe the Medici family is extant in the male line, however there are several families which can claim decent from the cadet branches.
And quite a few of current Royal Families are descended from the Medicis in the female line: House of Bourbon-Parma, for example, can claim descent from the House of Medici through Margherita de' Medici (Cosimo II de Medici's daughter).

well, all the Bourbon Family descends from the Medicis, since the first Bourbon, Henri IV of France, was married to Maria de' Medici, and they were the parents of King Louis XIII.
Btw, I've mistaken before: the second existant branch of this family is the one of the Marquesses of Castellina; there is also a the branch of Marignano, but I don't know how are they related to the main branch.

repeat
The family of the Marquis Medici of Marignano has no relations with the Medici of Florence.
The Head of the senior Medici line has officially changed his family name in "Medici di Tocana" a few years ago, to confirm his pretention to the "throne"...

I'm wondering if the late Italian/American presenter Mike Bongiorno, who died a week ago, was related to nobility, since in an interview he mentioned his uncle, General Nicoḷ Oneto di San Lorenzo.

Hi Tosca, no Mike Bongiono was not noble. Mike's aunt (mother's side) married general Don Nocolo' Oneto of the Princes of San Lorenzo

Thanks for clarifying, Count! You know, some magazines tend to attach noble titles to the national celebritites. I also read that Alba Parietti's mother is of noble descent... 
I'm glad to see you online again.

Actually in an interview Alba stated that her great grandmother was styled as "Donna", but she didn't tell her surname...
