Princess Isabella de Ligne-La Trémoïlle (née Orsini, born 2 December 1974) is an Italian actress. By marriage, she is a member of the House of Ligne, a Belgian noble family.
Biography
[edit]Orsini was the daughter of a gallery owner and a court clerk, after graduating from classical high school she graduated in law in her city.[1] She studied both in Italy and in the United States at the Actors Studio and following theatrical specialization courses with Bernard Hill in Los Angeles.[2]
Family
[edit]Orsini married in a civil ceremony on 2 September 2009 and in a religious ceremony on 5 September 2009, to Prince Édouard Lamoral Rodolphe de Ligne-La Trémoïlle (born 1976), at Antoing Castle in the Hainaut province of Belgium.[citation needed]
The couple's first child, Princess Althea Isabelle Sophie de Ligne-La Trémoïlle, was born on 12 May 2010 at the private "Villa Mafalda" clinic in Rome.[citation needed] On 9 May 2014, the couple had their second child, Princess Athénaïs Allegra Isabella de Ligne-La Trémoïlle at the American Hospital of Paris.[citation needed] On 10 January 2019, Orsini gave birth to the couple's third child, Prince Antoine Tau Édouard Adrien de Ligne-La Trémoïlle in Paris, France.[3]
As Belgium is a monarchy which confers and recognises hereditary titles of nobility, the right of Orsini and her Ligne-La Trémoïlle children to the prefix of prince and princess and to the style of Highness is legal—not a courtesy title; all members of the House of Ligne have been entitled to princely rank and to the style of Highness (Altesse) in Belgium since 31 May 1923.[4]
