Princess Diana’s hedge fund analyst godson Prince Philippos of Greece has married his long term girlfriend in a tiny private ceremony in the glitzy ski resort of St Moritz.
The New York City-based hedge fund analyst announced his engagement to his long-term girlfriend, creative director for airline VistaJet Nina Nastassja Flohr, in September after proposing on a romantic getaway to the island of Ithaca in Greece this summer.
Philippos is the youngest son of King Constantine (the godfather of Prince William) and Queen Anne-Marie, who have retained their royal titles since the abolition of the Greek monarchy in 1973.
The couple secretly married in a civil ceremony in Switzerland on Saturday, with just their fathers King Konstantin, 80, and Thomas Flohr, 60, present due to Covid-19 restrictions.

Following the tiny secret ceremony, the couple will likely host a larger religious ceremony at a later date.
The prince’s engagement was announced in September by his parents, who released the following statement: ‘Their Majesties King Constantine and Queen Anne-Marie are delighted to announce the engagement of their youngest son HRH Prince Philippos to Nina Nastassja Flohr, daughter of Thomas Flohr and Katharina Flohr.
