On July 12, 2026, Prince Dhruv Raj Singh of Doongri married Countess Marie von und zu Eltz at the Parish Church of St. Paul’s Conversion in Bad Aussee, Austria. They were married in a Hindu ceremony three days prior to their Catholic wedding. Marie is 35 and a descendant of King Ludwig III of Bavaria and Dhruv is 40 and a relative and close friend of Padmanabh Singh, titular king of Jaipur who was a guest at the wedding.
What an absolutely beautiful wedding that blended the two cultures! As an Indian it’s super exciting to see an intercontinental marriage for an Indian royal and I’d certainly love to see more. Articles with more pics and info:
