The newlyweds are third cousins once removed as both descend from Prince Georg Christian Lobkowicz (1835-1908) and Princess Anna of Liechtenstein (1846-1924). Count Albrecht has American roots as well as he is a descendant of Cornelius Vanderbilt II (1843-1899) and Alice Claypoole Gwynne through their youngest daughter Gladys Moore Vanderbilt (1886–1965) who married in 1908 to Hungarian Count László Jenő Mária Henrik Simon Széchenyi (1879–1938).
Gladys' youngest daughter, Ferdinandine Széchényi (1923-2016) married Count Alexander von und zu Eltz (1911–1977) in 1946. Count Peter is their elder son.
Anderson Cooper, the CNN anchor and Count Peter are second cousins.
Count Alexander is a second cousin to Daniel Finch-Hatton, 17th Earl of Winchilsea, whose paternal grandmother, Countess Gladys Széchényi was Countess Fernandine's older sister.
Princess Anna is the head of Migration at the Malteser Werke in Munich. She received a BA in Communication and Cultural Management from Zeppelin University in Friedrichshafen in 2010. A Master of Business and Science in European Business from the ESPC Business School was earned in 2014.
Count Albrecht, who has a BA in European Studies from Maastricht University, is the CEO & Executive Partner at Basenbox, an organic food delivery service.
Basenbox was founded by Countess Philippa von Hoyos, with her brother, Leopold Lovrek, and Count Albrecht in 2016. Philippa's cousin, Lukas Lovrek joined the company in 2017.
The box meals, which can be ordered in Vienna and Munich, are, according to Count Albrecht, who was interviewed by In Style magazine in January 2022, "a balanced form of plant-based nutrition. It's about relieving the acid-base balance."
All the meals (breakfast, lunch, and dinner are organic, plant-based, and vegan).
