Prince Karl Friedrich mourns: Farewell to Princess Birgitta

In an emotional obituary, Prince Karl Friedrich von Hohenzollern commemorates his late aunt, Princess Birgitta of Hohenzollern, who died on December 4 at the age of 87. The princess, sister of the Swedish king, was closely connected to the history of the Hohenzollern. Prince Karl Friedrich vividly remembers the dreamlike wedding of Birgitta and his uncle Johann Georg in 1961 in Sigmaringen, where he proudly wore the drag of the bride. These memories share the Hohenzollern and their important wedding celebrations that are intended to strengthen the connection between the noble families, such as Schwaebische.de reported.

New luck in Umkirch

At the same time, the wedding of Karl Friedrich's son, the hereditary prince Karl Friedrich von Hohenzollern, became a highlight of noble life in Umkirch. Mayor Walter Laub trusted the prominent couple in the Hohenzollern castle on Saturday. The event was surrounded by confidentiality to avoid media echo and took place with around 130 exuberant guests. The bride, Katharina-Maria de Zomer, a Hamburg model agent, celebrated her 51st birthday the day before the wedding, which made the wedding preparations appear in a different light. Karl-Friedrich's first marriage was with Alexandra Schenk Countess von Stauffenberg, from whom he separated with the consent of the church. Despite the general curiosity about the prince and his staff, the festival remained peaceful, like regionalia.de

The ceremony, which stretched over the festively decorated castle park, was a successful connection of modern celebrations with traditional nobility. The hereditary prince, a passionate musician, revitalized the celebration with his saxophone skills.
