The beautiful Princess Marie Caroline of Liechtenstein at 28 years old is finally old enough to get married. She becomes engaged to Leopoldo Maduro, a 34-year-old Venezuelan investment management entrepreneur. The Princely House of Liechtenstein confirmed the engagement in late 2023. This announcement sent royal watchers into a tizzy and delighted the public.
Born in Switzerland, Princess Marie Caroline is the second child of Hereditary Prince Alois and Hereditary Princess Sophie. She has three siblings: Prince Joseph Wenzel, Prince Georg, and Prince Nikolaus. Because of Liechtenstein’s agnatic primogeniture succession laws, she is not heir apparent to the throne.
After starting her education in Switzerland, Princess Marie Caroline moved to the US and built a successful career in the fashion industry. Now based in London, she has established herself as a leading talent in this highly competitive field.
The wedding will take place at Vaduz Castle in the capital of Liechtenstein. This beautiful venue is the official residence of Prince Hans-Adam II, who at 80 years old still actively serves as head of state. Hereditary Prince Alois has been regent of Liechtenstein since 2004, steering the small principality of Liechtenstein with his wife, Princess Sophie.
The announcement from the Princely House of Liechtenstein expressed their joy:
“H.S.H. the Hereditary Prince and H.R.H. the Hereditary Princess von und zu Liechtenstein are delighted to announce the engagement of their daughter, Princess Marie Caroline, to Mr Leopoldo Maduro Vollmer.” – Princely House of Liechtenstein
The royal family is looking forward to the wedding preparations. They’re thrilled to celebrate this new beginning for Princess Marie Caroline! The engagement marks a great personal accomplishment for the couple. It further inspires admiration and jubilation from Liechtenstein’s citizenry.
