I get the impression Jean is considered the black sheep of the Nassau-family. Why Diane has no access to the family-pieces may have to do more with his standing in the family rather than his wife.

: I understand your point Henri, but I'm
: thinking that perhaps Queen Fabíola will
: pass on her major jewelry (the spanish
: diadem, the aquamarines, the pearls, her
: small diamond tiara...) to the new Queen,
: and perhaps she will give some of her
: smaller jewels to her nieces (in-law) as a
: gesture of her affection. Perhaps to the
: ones she feels closer, I don't know.
: I would doubt if Pss Marie-Christine would
: get any jewel.
: On Diane de Nassau née De Guerre I also have
: some doubts...This very elegant and
: distinguished lady is Ps Jean's second wife,
: and Queen Fabíola, as we know, is a strict
: catholic, I don't know how she reacted to
: this second marriage.
: It puzzled me a bit why Diane Countess of
: Nassau wore a tiara privately owned by her
: sister-in-law, Pss Sybilla, at the
: prewedding event of Ps Guillaume's wedding.
: She looked splendid (to me one of the most
: elegant ladies) but since she is the wife of
: Ps Jean why did she not wore a tiara from
: the Grand-Ducal collection? I believe there
: were still several that could be worn by
: her...perhaps she didn't like them. Is it
: known how fluid is her relation with her
: husband's family?

: Interesting but also somewhat 'sad' maybe
: because this means that Queen Fabiola's
: jewelry collection will now become
: fragmented instead of presented as a nice
: collection for the new Queen.

: By the way, Princess Margaretha von and zu
: Liechtenstein is sort of niece-by-marriage
: to Queen Fabiola: she is a daughter to her
: late sister-in-law. Queen Mathilde has no
: links to Queen Fabiola's family-in-law. I am
: curious to learn of more 'nieces' will be
: spotted with Fabiola's jewels...
