Prince Eitel Friedrich and his estranged wife, Sophie Charlotte, are involved in the "most amazing divorce suit in recent history," reports United Press.
The prince, the second son of the former Kaiser, is "pictured as a complacent husband who permitted his wife to maintain intimate relations with Baron von Plettenburg, an officer in the Prussian Guards."

Princess Eitel Friedrich, named as a co-respondent by the Baroness von Plettenburg, "flaunted her love for the baron in the face of the court," and openly acknowledged her relationship with him. She denied that the affair ended before the baron married the woman has brought forth the suit.
Without any hesitation, the former Duchess Sophie Charlotte of Oldenburg admitted that she knew the Baron even before her marriage to Prince Eitel Friedrich. Her affair "with the full knowledge of Prince Eitel." She told the court that her husband tolerated "the situation" because the baron "was a friend and an officer in the Prussian Guards."
