Archduke Imre, 29, is the eldest son of Archduke Carl Christian of Austria and his wife, Princess Marie Astrid of Luxembourg.

  1. I wonder if Marlene has interviewed, whilst she is still on the planet, Sally de Barcza of NJ. Her late husband was Kary(Carles) de Barcza whose mother was a lady-in-waiting to the Empress Zita. I can provide contact unless already established.

  2. Thanks for the kind offer but have not, and no need to do so.
