On March 15, the Duke of Chartres confirmed the engagement to the French royal magazine, Point de Vue.
The Princess and Francisco were traveling in Brazil when he proposed. According to Point de Vue, he got on one knee and popped the question. He put on her finger a ring made from "an emerald surrounded by diamonds and sapphires that he had ordered, in the greatest secrecy, from Hélène's godfather, the jeweler Laurent de Chavagnac."
The Duke said: "I met him a year ago. He is a kind and religious young man, with real values and his feet on the ground. I am very happy for my daughter."
Sottomayer Quinta received his pilot's license from Sevenair Academy and serves as a First Officer with TAP Air Portugal.
Princess Hélène is a great-granddaughter of the late HRH Prince Henri Robert Ferdinand Marie Louis Philippe, Count of Paris, and HRH Princess Isabelle Maria Amélia Luiza Vitoria Teresa Joana Micaela Gabriela Rafaela Gonzaga of Orléans and Braganza. Her father and HRH Prince Jean, Count of Paris, are first cousins.
