Princess Eugenia of Hanover has opened up about her royal title, saying it precipitated her many issues in school.
The German royal, 23, mentioned the title “means nothing” to her as she detailed the struggles she confronted on account of her high-status.
Eugenia, who lives in Vienna, Austria, is the daughter of Prince Heinrich of Hanover, 64, who’s the brother of Prince Ernst, the present head of the Home of Hanover. Her mom is Princess Thyra von Westernhagern, 51.
The household boasts shut ties to the Monegasque royals as Prince Ernst is married to Princess Caroline of Monaco.
However Eugenia claims her royal standing has thus far proved to be extra of an impediment than a bonus.
“In school, I had some teachers that just didn’t like me because of it, and they also said some comments which were not very nice or reasonable,” the aristocrat instructed Tatler.
“It also has bad sides, having this name… I am interested in the history of my family, but it doesn’t mean anything in general for living my day-to-day life.”
“In Germany, it is just a name and it actually doesn’t mean anything anymore. For me, it doesn’t mean anything because I don’t see myself as something different to others,” she added.
Eugenia added that she didn’t “really care about school” — and was as an alternative occupied with tending to her horses.
Nonetheless, the royal pressed on along with her training and enrolled at a prestigious establishment in Vienna to review drugs.
Her grandfather, Prince Ernest Augustus of Hanover, had trod an analogous path by turning into an Ear, Nostril and Throat (ENT) professor.
Along with her research, the royal has kickstarted a modeling profession — a lot to her mother and father’ dismay.
Eugenia admitted that whereas her mother and father have been “apprehensive” over her pursuits in modeling, they quickly got here round after her “scared” mother accompanied her to photoshoots.
“Right now I’m very happy about my life. It’s very stable,” she instructed the outlet. “I think if I only did fashion, then that could mess it up.”
“I only have two more years to be a general doctor, there’s no point leaving now. It wouldn’t be worth it,” she added.
