Their Royal Highnesses Crown Prince Alexander and Crown Princess Katherine of Serbia hosted on Saturday 17 April 2010 at the White Palace in Belgrade a gala dinner party for HSH Princess Ira of Fürstenberg on the occasion of her 70th birthday, cf. the press release of 18 April 2010.

Among the guests were:

(*) I wonder if it was actually Prince Hubertus of Hohenlohe-Langenburg.

Princess Virginia (Ira) of Fürstenberg is the oldest child of Prince Tassilo of Fürstenberg (1903-1989), by his first wife Claire Agnelli (b. 1920). Princess Ira was born in Rome on 18 April 1940. She married first Prince Alfonso of Hohenlohe-Langenburg (1924-2003) in 1955 (divorced 1960) and secondly in 1961 (divorced 1964) Francisco Pignatari (1916-1977).

As happened to Queen Margrethe II of Denmark's celebrations, several guests invited to Princess Ira's party had to cancel due to the closed airspace.
