Prince Robert Louis François Marie of Luxembourg, born on August 14, 1968, is the son of Prince Charles of Luxembourg, the second son of Charlotte and Felix, and Joan Dillon, the American daughter of former U.S. Treasury Secretary C. Douglas Dillon. He is 13th in line for the throne.
Robert’s education included boarding school at Worth Abbey in Sussex and studying philosophy and psychology at Georgetown University in Washington, DC. He didn’t graduate from Georgetown, however, as he dropped out to travel the world. “I was a young man without responsibility, constraints or family commitments — a total idealist starting out on life,” Robert told Club Oenologique in 2021. He is the president of a French wine company started by his mother’s family called Domaine Clarence Dillon.
He married Julie Elizabeth Houston Ongaro in 1994. Princess Julie is the daughter of Harvard professor Dr. Theodor Ongaro and Katherine Houston, an artist. Julie and Robert have three children: Princess Charlotte, Prince Alexandre, and Prince Frederik. Originally, Robert’s wife and children did not have Prince/Princess stylings since his marriage was unsanctioned, but Duke Henri upgraded their titles in 2004.
