Princess Alexandra, the only daughter of the Grand Duke and Grand Duchess, is engaged.
The Grand Duke and Grand Duchess of Luxembourg announced this morning that their only daughter, Princess Alexandra, is engaged to Nicholas Bagoy.
In a statement they
said, "Their Royal Highnesses the Grand Duke and Grand Duchess have the great joy of announcing the engagement of their daughter, Her Royal Highness Princess Alexandra, to Mr Nicolas Bagory." The royals added, "The two families join in the happiness of the engaged couple by surrounding them with their affection."
Princess Alexandra, sixth in line to the Luxembourg throne, is an active working member of the royal family and a professional linguist.
Her fiancé, Nicolas Bagory, was born and raised in Brittany, France, and studied political science and classics at university. According to the Court, he now works in "the creation of social and cultural projects." Per his LinkedIn, he is based in Paris, and received a master’s from the Sorbonne University in the French capital in Latin in 2014.
In the engagement portrait released by the Luxembourg royal family, Princess Alexandra wore a lilac top and blazer. She accessorized with a large blue heart pendant, and of course, her brand-new engagement ring—which looks to be a large diamond set on a gold band.
