Even the Nazis Hate Von A-Hole

Add Hitler to the long list of people who couldn't give a rat's ass about Prince Von A-Hole.


According to the royal pain-in-the-butt himself, the Prince's "adopted" grandfather, Kaiser Wilhelm II, was booted from Germany by Adolf back in the day. It's a bit of an embellishment (Adolf only blamed the guy for losing WWI), but if Wilhelm was anything like his grandson, it's not that hard to believe.

1. You do realize he is NOT Wilhelm II's grandson? I suggest checking your sources before you lump this prick with the German royal family. He was adopted by the wife of Joachim, who was the son of Wilhelm in 1980, many years after the death of Joachim. He has not REAL link to the Kaiser. DUH!

3. The "prince" is the adopted son of Princess Marie Auguste of Anhalt, whose first husband was the Kaiser's son, Prince Joachim of Prussia. Prince Joachim died in 1920; Frederic Prinz von Anhalt was born ca. 1945, so I think it a stretch to call him the Kaiser's grandson. He is married to Zsa Zsa Gabor, which is his one and only claim to fame. The Anhalt family do not recognize his adoption, and he is not legally a prince.

4. If only TMZ would stop running bits on him 3 times a week. You care far more about him than even Zsa Zsa does.

5. Tmz,

You have your facts totally wrong. Prince Von A-Hole purchased his title for a German dutchess who adopted him as an adult. There isn't a drop of royal blood in his veins. He is just an average man who got lucky and wed Zsa Zsa who loves titles.

6. A Complete Fabrication!

Hitler and the Kaiser never crossed paths; different eras in German history.

7. Number 3 is correct:

From Wikipedia:

"Prinz von Anhalt was born as Hans Robert Lichtenberg (other sources state Hans-Georg Lichtenberg) near Bad Kreuznach, Germany. The son of a German police officer, he was adopted in 1980 by Princess Marie Auguste of Anhalt (1898-1983) which has led confusion in media reports that he is a member of a European royal family, which he is not. The family of Princess Marie Auguste has never recognized him as being part of their lineage nor is he entitled to any official royal title.

Marie Auguste's first husband was Prince Joachim of Prussia, the youngest son of German Emperor William II. Prince Joachim committed suicide in 1920 after four years of marriage. She subsequently (1926) wed Johannes-Michael Freiherr von Loën, whom she divorced in 1935.[1]

Upon his adoption by Princess Marie Auguste of Anhalt, Lichtenberg took the name Frédéric Prinz von Anhalt; he is also known as Frédéric von Anhalt. The adoption and name change did not confer any title or nobility, though this is often assumed by various media outlets unfamiliar with the technicalities of the adoption and which, therefore, frequently refer to him incorrectly as a prince. Prinz von Anhalt is his surname, rather than a title, as per German laws regarding the country's former nobility. In addition to long-standing conventions prohibiting the transfer of German titles to adopted individuals -- except for individuals who are blood relations adopted by another relative -- the Anhalt family does not include Frédéric Prinz von Anhalt as a member."

12. the kaiser's daugther-in-law adopted frederik von anhalt (formerly known as robert lichtenberg,owner of "sauna clubs", see wikipedia) when he was already 36 years old. he paid her a lot of money and he could entitle himself "prince von anhalt"... so he's got nothing in common with kaiser wilhelm II...

15. Ahhhhh HAHAHA TMZ trying to make him look bad when they look like complete idiots for this story! On top of it all, they try and make being hated by Hitler a bad thing! Like Hitler mattered! So is it safe to say under TMZ standards that TMZ itself are Hitler loving Nazi's?
