The male line descendants of Prince Friedrich Georg of Prussia and Lady Brigid Guinness bear the surname von Preussen. This marriage was recognized as equal, and their children are entitled to the HRH and Prince or Princess of Prussia, although as British nationals, they cannot use foreign titles legally. Socially is another matter.
All five of Lady Brigid's children have benefited from the Guinness inheritance. All are multimillionaires.
