Prince Waldemar of Schaumburg-Lippe
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Prince Waldemar Stephen of Schaumburg-Lippe (Waldemar Stephan Ferdinand Wolrad Friedrich Karl, b. 19 December 1940 in Glienicke) is the son of Prince Christian of Schaumburg-Lippe and Princess Feodora of Denmark, and the great grandson of Frederick VIII of Denmark.
He married Anne-Lise Johansen on 10 September 1977, Queen Margrethe's court photographer, although they subsequently divorced. They had one child:
- HSH Princess Eleonore-Christine Eugenie Benita Feodora Maria of Schaumburg-Lippe (b. 22 December 1978 at Hörsholm, Denmark)
Although related to the Danish Royal Family, under Danish law, he is not in line to inherit the throne as he is not a descendant of Christian X. He is however in line of succession to the British throne, being descended from George II of the United Kingdom, through his daughter Queen Louisa of Denmark and Norway.
