Early life, family, and education


Maria Theresia is the eldest child and daughter of Johannes, 11th Prince of Thurn and Taxis and his wife Gloria, Princess of Thurn and Taxis (née Gräfin von Schönburg-Glauchau).[citation needed] Maria Theresia's family's lands form one of the largest private estates in Europe. After the death of her father in 1990, Maria Theresia was a joint heir, along with her sister Princess Elisabeth and Prince Albert, to one of the largest privately owned forests in Europe,[1] consisting of 36,000 hectares.[2][3] She and her siblings are the largest private landowners in Germany.[4]

Maria Theresia attended elementary school and secondary school in Regensburg where she lived with her family at Schloss St. Emmeram. To acquire her qualification for university entrance (German: Hochschulreife), Maria Theresia's mother shielded her from the German media by sending her to England to complete her secondary education.[5] From 2002, Maria Theresia studied sociology, psychology, and communications in Madrid.[6] Since 2004, she studied communications and media studies with a focus on film and directing in Paris and London.[7]


Artistic career


Maria Theresia worked as a freelance journalist and visual artist in London after completing school.[8] She shares an artist studio with her husband, and produces contemporary and modern art.[9]


Personal life


In 2001, Maria Theresia was granted compensation from the Bauer Media Group (German: Bauer Verlagsgruppe) upon her appeal to the Higher Regional Court of Hamburg (German: Hanseatisches Oberlandesgericht) due to fabricated photograph montages in their Neue Post magazine claiming she was to marry Felipe, Prince of Asturias.[10]

On 13 September 2014, she married Hugo Wilson, a British artist based in London, in a Catholic ceremony at St. Joseph's Church in Tutzing, Germany.[11]

On 29 April 2015, it was announced that Maria Theresia and Hugo Wilson were expecting their first child. On 21 August, Maria Theresia gave birth to a girl, named Mafalda Beatrix Maria, in London, England. A second daughter, Maya Romy Alexandra, was born on 22 September 2017.[12]
