In 2016, when pregnancy speculation swirled, Princess Stephanie said, “I don’t have any plans to become a mother. For the moment, I’m enjoying spending time with my husband.” All that has changed. The exciting news came out on the 6th of December 2019. The royal infant is expected in May! They have been married for seven years.

She says, “It’s a privilege, and an honor to be part of the family,” but, “I do not feel like a princess. I do not feel that I married a prince, with a title. Well actually, yes, he is my prince, but nothing more.” She says she enjoys her simple life in Greece. She loves to help the Greek people. Sometimes she donates her time to a local soup kitchen to help feed a population that has been struggling with poverty for years.
