    It is a Dutch lady, Ms Charlène Heineken, heiress of the Heineken empire, who is married to Mr Michel de Carvalho (CEO of Citibank London). Michel de Carvalho is of Brazilean-British origin and competed for the United Kingdom in three Winter Olympics. Ms Charlène de Carvalho-Heineken is member of the Board of Heineken. Mr Michel de Carvalho is member of the Supervisory Board of Heineken. The Heinekens have close ties to the royal family. Queen Beatrix and her sons all were frequent guests on the yacht 'Something Cool'. The Prince of Orange and Princess Máxima spend the first part of their honeymoon at the Heineken villa in Sankt Moritz, Switzerland. In the royal family Alfred Heineken was nicknamed 'Uncle Freddie'.

    Princess María Carolina now is married to the heir of an even far bigger fortune, but the Brenninkmeijers -as a good oldfashioned Catholic family- have lots of scions, so it is difficult to calculate it to individuals.

    The last single Dutch Prince De Bourbon de Parme (Prince Jaime) is rumoured to have a relationship with Ms Paulette van Ommen. That is old Amsterdam chique and money. In 1835 the messieurs Lugt, Sobbe, Keppler and Van Ommen started the Europeesche Lloyd (better known as Eurolloyd). Since 1917 the Van Ommen family had the majority, since then always the CEO was a Van Ommen. Eurolloyd was specialized in industrial insurances (for an example: oil tankers, off shore activities, airplanes). In 2008 Eurolloyd was sold to Delta Lloyd, undoubtedly making Paulette's father one of Amsterdam's most fortuned gentlemen.
