QVD?
No. Friedrich Franz had QVD nieces and cousins.
Alexandra of Cumberland (Hanover)'s brother, Ernst August, married a QVD Victoria Luise of Prussia. Her sister, Marie, married the Max of Baden. Their son, Berthold, married a QVD, Theodora of Greece.

Karin's brother-in-law, Christian Ludwig married a QVD, Barbara of Prussia.
