I actually thought he is butt ugly...
i have to agree there. last time i saw him on t.v. he was extremely pudgy, not a very sportly chap. just like his pa.
a few weeks back i actually sat down and watched a special about the T&Taxis family. aside from being from poor royalty (everyone seems to think her brother is a well-known journalist, but i cannot recall his name and wrote a
tragic book about it some years back), Mariae Gloria Ferdinanda Joachima Josefine Wilhelmine Huberta, Princess of Thurn and Taxis did a Anna Nicole and married the guy who was a much sought after bachelor, already in his late 50's or early 60's. apparently she loved him. she was definitely a wild one. and as katrina wrote, had a helluva time to manage his poorly-managed estate after he died. apparently she sold off quite some gems in their family.
but what pisses me off the most is - he is the sole heir? he does have 2 older sisters. f*cking monarchy.
