Interesting article about the Anhalts

Here is a link from a German newspaper about the head of the Anhalt family, Prince Eduard. http://www.mz-web.de/servlet/ContentServer?pagename=ksta/page&atype=ksArtikel&aid=1216619625714

The headline writer went a little overboard with the comment about the Prince of Anhalt being Prince Charles' cousin ... very, very distant cousins, if at all.
Eduard was born in 1941. He succeeded his brother, Leopold Friedrich, in 1963 as head of the house. Leopold Friedrich, who was unnmarried, died in a car crash. Eduard is the last male heir to the Anhalt line. He and his wife, Corinna, have three daughters.
