Grand Duchess Maria Teresa and Grand Duke Henri of Luxembourg’s son Prince Louis is engaged! The Grand Ducal Court announced the 34-year-old royal’s engagement to lawyer Scarlett-Lauren Sirgue, 29, on Tuesday. “We are very happy to announce the engagement of our son, Prince Louis, to Miss Scarlett-Lauren Sirgue,” Grand Duchess Maria Teresa and Grand Duke Henri said in a statement. “Princes Gabriel and Noah join us in surrounding the new couple with all our affection. We wish them immense happiness.”
Louis shares his sons Prince Gabriel, 15, and Prince Noah, 13, with his ex-wife Tessy Antony de Nassau, 35.

Although the former couple separated in 2017 and finalized their divorce in 2019, they’ve managed to “beautifully” co-parent their two sons. In August, Tessy celebrated Louis’ birthday with a tribute on Instagram. “Happy B day Lou. Life is a continues roller coaster and we both have gotten our fair share of that. Despite differences we have managed and are continuing to manage beautifully to raise our two joyful, smart and handsome two sons,” Tessy wrote. “I wish you especially today with your family, GF, friends and others the most amazing celebration and will raise my glass to many more years for you to come.”
“There is a saying which goes like this: ‘Even if we can’t be together in the end, I’m still glad you’re part of my life,’” she continued. “Thank you for our two boys. Both mean the world to me!🦋To you all reading this, The rollercoaster is for each and everyone of us different. Do not compare your ride with someone else’s ride.
