Yes, thanks for the correction. Maria Paloma is how she's more well-known in Spain, though.Hannelore said:The archduchess is always referred to as Maria though, never Maria Paloma.
Hi, Claudia!claudiacasas said:where are they live now? How many children they have? Sorry for my english, I´m argentine.
She's his daughter.crisiñaki said:Is Maria related to the Infante don Carlos?![]()
Yes, they are HRHs and 'equals' to the Infantas in terms of rank and style. Why the curtsey to Cristina? Just guessing here, but possibly to show respect and deference to the senior line of the Bourbons, and to an Infanta of Spain. Not necessary and not required by protocol, but a family thing (Maria's father Don Carlos, Duke of Calabria, was granted the title of Infant of Spain by King Juan Carlos in 1994, a very rare and high honour indeed).michelleq said:Aren't the Princes/Princess of Bourbon-Two Sicilies HRHs? Why do they curtsy to the Princess' of Spain? Aren't they equals?
They are all very look alike, I think... Interesting the fact that they all used the same veil (Cristina and Maria also the same tiara)Alisa said:I think Victoria is the most beautiful of the sisters.
Hi, Claudia!
After getting married at “La Toledana” (Princess Maria Paloma family’s estate in Ciudad Real, Spain), the couple lived in Weiler (Austria) for five years and afterwards they moved to Vaduz (Liechtenstein), where they're still living.
Simeon and Paloma have four children: Johannes (born on October 29th 1997), Ludwig (born on November 16th 1998), Isabel (September 14th 2000) and Carlota (born in 2003).

The family has some diamond buttons that they have mounted as a tiara or as earrings or brooches for weddings.
