Family

edit

Prince Maximilian met Angela Brown, a Panamanian-American fashion designer, at a private party in New York in 1997.[4] In 1999, the Principality of Liechtenstein's Information Bureau announced the forthcoming nuptials of Prince Maximilian to Angela Brown.[5] Prince Maximilian married Angela civilly on 21 January 2000 in Vaduz, Liechtenstein,[6] and religiously on 29 January 2000, at 11:00 am, at the Church of St. Vincent FerrerinNew York City.[7]

The marriage brought a person of Afro-Panamanian ancestry into one of the remaining reigning families of Europe. Prince Maximilian obtained prior consent and full support of the sovereign, who also attended the wedding.[8][5] While some members of the princely house were said to be shocked and to consider the interracial marriage and the eleven years age gap (with Angela being older than Prince Maximilian) "the end of an era", others were said to have expressed support.[5][4][9]

Prince Maximilian and Princess Angela have a son:

The couple owns a property in Puerto Escondido, Pedasí, where the family usually spends part of the Christmas holidays.
