Biography and family background

Victoria was born on March 17, 1997 in Málaga as the first child of the German-Spanish aristocrat Marco Prinz zu Hohenlohe-Langenburg (Spanish: don Marco de Hohenlohe-Langenburg y Medina ) and his German wife Sandra Schmidt-Polex. Her younger brother is Alexander Gonzalo Prince zu Hohenlohe-Langenburg (Spanish don Alexander Gonzalo von Hohenlohe-Langenburg ), today's 14th Duke of Ciudad Real and 13th Margrave of Navahermosa.

Victoria was raised in three languages, grew up mainly in Munich and is now studying international relations at the IE University in Madrid.

Her paternal grandparents were Max von Hohenlohe and doña Ana Luisa de Medina y Fernández de Córdoba , 10th Countess of Ofalia, eldest child of the 18th Duchess of Medinaceli, doña Victoria Eugenia Fernández de Córdoba y Fernández de Henestrosa , bringing Victoria over this line of the casa de Medinaceli , one of the most important families in Spain, descends.

Victoria's great-grandmother, the 18th Duchess of Medinaceli, had the following sons in addition to Victoria's grandmother Doña Ana, who was a close confidante of Queen Sophia :

Victoria's youngest great-uncle Don Ignacio, 19th Duke of Segorbe, is married to Princess María de la Gloria de Orleans-Braganza y Borbón-Dos Sicilias , who is a first cousin of King Juan Carlos I and the former wife of Crown Prince Alexander of Yugoslavia is.

Succession

The inheritance regulation traditionally valid in Spain, which enabled women to succeed to titles of nobility (in contrast to other countries ), but placed them behind younger brothers, was abolished by Law 33/2006 of October 30, 2006 and replaced by absolute primogeniture , according to which the oldest child always has to follow regardless of gender.

Victoria's great uncle Don Luis, 8th Duke of Santisteban del Puerto, was the oldest son of the original (main) heir of the Medinacelis, but fell behind his older sister Doña Ana due to the change in the law. Nonetheless, it did not remain titled, because the 18th Duchess of Medinaceli had given all her sons a duke title including grandeza de España from the enormous number of their titles during their lifetime (which is possible under Spanish law) .

Doña Ana de Medina y Fernández de Córdoba died in 2012 before her mother, which is why Victoria's father inherited her inheritance as her eldest child. Victoria followed her grandmother as Countess of Ofalia, while her younger brother followed grandmother as Margrave of Navahermosa.

After the death of his grandmother, Marco Prince zu Hohenlohe-Langenburg followed in 2013 as the 19th Duke of Medinaceli, etc. He died in 2016, however, before he could have all titles transferred to himself.

Victoria succeeded her father as the 20th Duchess of Medinaceli, while following her great grandmother Doña Victoria Eugenia on most other titles.

Today she is the most titled aristocrat in the world and, as ten times the Grande de España, holds the most grandezas, even before the Duke of Alba .
