THE CHANCELLERY OF
H.R.H. CROWN PRINCE Alexander II
OF YUGOSLAVIA

IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING THE ARTICLE IN THE
 BELGRADE MAGAZINE “STORY”

Please note that the Agence France Presse (AFP) misinterpreted the article from the Belgrade magazine “Story” under the headline ‘How to Become Princess in Serbia – Princess Wanted’.

The article was put on The Royal Family website both in Serbian and in English in the press release section purely as a press clipping.

The press release only containing the article and no more was also sent via e-mail as a routine to our website subscribers as it is always done when an article dealing with The Royal Family appears in either local or foreign media.

In both cases it was made clear that the article was published purely as a story about Their Royal Highnesses Prince Peter, Prince Philip and Prince Alexander with incorporated brief interviews with them and not as an advertisement for marriage as the AFP reporter interpreted. The article is not intended to solicit any inquiries for marriage. Their Royal Highnesses are not intending to get married at this time.

In order to avoid any further misinterpretation, we updated our website press release / press clipping section with a remark on top of the article stressing again it was merely an article from the Belgrade magazine ‘’Story’’.

The AFP has informed us that they have issued a correction.

We have received thousands of emails and we would kindly request, please, that no more emails be sent regarding this matter.

Finally, there will be no interviews regarding this matter.

Thank you very much for your understanding.
