Luxembourgs G.Ducal Court don't appear to be media savvy and are still in the early 2000's by the looks of their official site.

They went through a lot, especially Princess Antonia when she was captured by the Nazis. Plus there was opposition to the marriage because of the World war. They have many descendants today and only one of their children is alive today, dowager Princess Sophie of Arenberg.
