In the noble family of the European aristocracy, a scandal broke out again. This time because of the marriage of Prince Ernst August of Hanover and Ekaterina Malysheva, a fashion designer who was born in Russia. The head of the family, Ernst August V, categorically refused to bless this marriage, considering the bride a hunter for the state of the dynasty.
A Worthy Son of His Father: Crown Prince Ernst August of Hanover
The father of the Crown Prince Ernst August V once went against the will of his parent and married Chantal Hochuli, the daughter of an influential and very wealthy Swiss merchant, owner of a chocolate concern. He believed that love is more important than origin. But this marriage did not last long, giving, nevertheless, to the head of the Hanoverian royal house two heirs - the sons of Ernst August and Christian. Later, Ernst August V married the Princess of Monaco, who gave birth to his daughter Alexandra.
Ernst August was born on July 19, 1983 in Hildesheim. Since his birth, he has been in line to the throne of Great Britain, but with the direct heirs of a living queen, he has no real chance of a British crown. The Crown Prince graduated from Malvern College, then studied in New York. In London, where the heir to the Hanoverian crown has been living recently, he is engaged in the financial sector.
Ekaterina Malysheva - beloved daughter and talented designer
Catherine, unlike her high-ranking spouse, cannot boast of a noble birth. Papa Igor devoted his whole life to science, having earned a good fortune, mother Svetlana is a servant of Melpomene.
Katya was born in the city of Appatity, Murmansk region, where she lived with her parents and younger brother until her six years. When the time came for her to go to school, the family moved to Moscow. Loving mom and dad are seriously concerned about the level of education that their daughter should receive. They honestly analyzed all the best schools in the capital. And they were unhappy: in some elite educational institutions it was too pretentious, and to the detriment of the level of education, somewhere they paid too much attention to the religious component. As a result, the Malyshev family ended up in Prague, where the girl went to school at the American Embassy.
At school, the girl enjoyed playing sports, thanks to which she traveled all over Europe, taking part in tournaments.
Catherine's parents lasted only ten years abroad, after which they moved to Moscow, where they live now, inviting their children to the family New Year.
Katya, at the age of 19, moved to England and entered the London College of Fashion, after which she entered an internship with the eminent producer Chris Backwell, and grew up to the general manager. And then the company went bankrupt, and the girl, by chance, got into the world of filming documentaries. The film "The Square", on the set of which Ekaterina was the filming coordinator, was nominated for an Oscar and won three Emmy awards. And Catherine was invited to play the role of translator for the shooting of a new film - "Show Trial: The Story of Pussy Riot".
After this project, Ekaterina Malysheva decided to open her own business, and for three years now she has been the owner of her own design firm for the production of bright tight-fitting clothes under the Ekat trademark. Her products are extremely popular in Europe, and there are many famous representatives of show business among the clients and admirers of Katya's design talent.
London - the city of love
Ekaterina Malysheva and Ernst August were introduced to each other at one of the social events. Bright, spontaneous, very lively Katya attracted the attention of the crown prince not only with her beauty and sophistication, but also with her dedication and very versatile interests.
Young people were interested in spending time together, and a few years after the beginning of the novel, they already began to live together in a house in the London Queens Park area.
On weekdays, Catherine and the prince spent quiet, almost family evenings, and on weekends they visited various democratic institutions like jazz bars in Soho. But on vacation, they went together to rather exotic places, away from curious cameras, and indeed from prying eyes.
Last year in Greece, Crown Prince Ernst Augustus of Hanover wore an engagement ring with a decent gem on his beloved's delicate finger. Only after that it became known about their five-year-old romance at that time. Before the engagement, a single black and white photograph of the couple got on the Internet. But even she did not give rise to any rumors.
Prince and Princess of Hanover
The day before the main holiday, the young people signed at the mayor's office, and on July 8, 2017, Ernst August and Ekaterina got married in Market Church and celebrated this event in Marienburg. For the first time in modern history, a Russian girl married a real prince, receiving the title of Princess of Hanover.
And only one circumstance upset the happy lovers. There was only one Ernst August V, who thus demonstratively expressed his extreme dissatisfaction. It's all about his extreme disapproval of marriage. Shortly before the wedding, he demanded that his son dissolve the engagement or renounce all his titles and return back the assets that were transferred to him as heir to the crown.
On the list of what the father demands to return, there is also the Marienburg castle, where the wedding was celebrated. It was in this castle that the newlyweds planned to build their family nest.
Ernst August the younger refused to accept the conditions of his father and with a confident hand led his beloved down the aisle. They are in love, happy and confident in each other and in their future.
They celebrated their only wedding in life with real royal chic. Representatives of the royal families of Europe, relatives and friends of the bride and groom arrived to congratulate the newlyweds.
Detailed photo report from the wedding of Ernst August and Catherine
Ekaterina Malysheva at the wedding really looked like a fairy princess. However, she looked no less beautiful on the day of her wedding and Pippa Middleton, sister of Princess Kate.
