I never saw a picture of him with his Daughter ?
The last picture I remember of him with Alexandra is of Monaco National Day 2008. I tried to find pictures of them together at the wedding of Christian and Alessandra in Peru 2017 but couldn't find any. But IIRC they both attended.

Eugenia is very pretty but I don't anything about her. Who are her parents?
 
She's a lovely girl....Alexandra's paternal first cousin. I wonder if they are friends?
 
Ernst August has celebrated his 71st birthday in Madrid together with his partner, son, daughter-in-law and two of his grandchildren:


He’s using a walker at age 71?.
 
With all his health crises of the last 20 years, I am surprised that Ernest is not in a wheelchair. His body has taken brutal punishment; I am amazed that he has survived as long as he has.🙁

Indeed and both his parents did not become very old. His father died aged 73 and his mother not even 60.

And his paternal aunt (Queen Federica ) around 64. I think these royal families suffer from repetitive cross breeding marriages (consanguine) I'm sorry if the expressions are not the adequate, you all understand what I mean.

Never after he is estranged with Pcs. Caroline. I was always wondering if he never sees her or if he sees her only inside. We saw him many times with his second son and his family (almost never with the 1st one, but we know they are not talking each other) but never with his daughter for the last 15 years. So since she was around 12.... very sad.
 
We do know they both attended Christian and Alessandra's wedding in Lima (which took place 8 years ago) and they may have met at other occasions related to Christian and Alessandra's young family.

It is not just question to occasionally meet. We are talking about a father and his daughter. Usually in most of the families when the couple separate, one part has the custody and the othe has regular fixed care including weekends and holidays. Since her 14ies Alexandra's parents are separated but we never saw a constant contact with her father.
 
I understand but you mentioned that they had not been seen together for 15 years. That might be true but we do know that they at least have met occasionally in those 15 years. Probably very similar to how both Ernst Augsut sr and jr have met over the last several years; only occasionally at events relating to Christian's family.
 
Tabloid "Bild" reports today that Ernst-August in in intensive care at the hospital in Madrid. His girlfriend is very worried. If this is really true or just for clickbaits is difficult to judge.

 
When looking at the big pictures, its a mircacle that EA is still alive, I wouldnt be surprised if it was serious again. His body must be pretty damaged.
 
It is not the first time he is in intenstive care ...but this time , I am afraid.
 
According to this article in “Bunte”, Ernst August's health seems to be deteriorating. Kidney failure is imminent. The eldest son, Ernst August Jr., also receives daily updates on his father's state of health.

 
It is not the first time he is in intenstive care ...but this time , I am afraid.
20 years ago, almost day to day.. when Prince Rainier passed, EA was again in intensive care, and didn't attend his father in law funeral. Life plays games sometimes....
I hope he overcomes it, for another time. Furthermore..20 years older with many decades of heavy alcoholism behind him.. would be a miracle.
 
Ernst August's partner Claudia, Christian, Alessandra and the twins were seen visiting Ernst August at the Ruber Clinic in Madrid today, April 19:

Ernst August has unfortunately been known for his scandals for years. Two wives have separated from him, his eldest son has fallen out with him and his daughter seems to have no part in his life. This is a sad family story that probably happens to many families. I think it all has to do with his alcoholism. People who are alcoholics change their behavior and can go from being a kind person to a beast.
I find it comforting for him that he still has people to support him, his youngest son and his family and his Spanish partner.
Perhaps he will recover from his serious illness, but if not, I would hope that the other family members can reconcile before it is too late.
 
This is a very sad situation. His daughter continues her life and posts lovely every day activities in IG, she does not seem ever having visited him in Hospital, neither his eldest son. I hope he goes better and manages to recover not only his health but also his children.
 
Good news!
Fortunately, the treatment began to yield results, and after several days of uncertainty, Ernest was transferred to the ward, where he completed his recovery before being finally discharged. He is currently at home, where he continues to convalesce, surrounded by his loved ones.
 
Good for him, he has often been very ill, but has always managed to recover. I would hope for the family members who have been at odds for years that they can now reconcile. Because he doesn't seem to be very stable. However, we don't know how many injuries he has inflicted on Caroline and his eldest son. This may also explain why Alexandra has never been able to build a relationship with her biological father.
