Thanks. I have found not information on the Royal House of Parma's website, either.

: I only read that 'the family announced'. No
: written statement has appeared in the press
: at this moment.
:
: As for the religious side. The father of
: Anne-Marie has been an MP for the Christian
: Conservatives. This party is the result of a
: merger of the Catholic Peoples Party and two
: protestant parties; the ARP, a progressive
: protestant party and the CHU the more
: conservative protestant party.
:
: Before the CDA became the CDA, Mr.
: Gualthérie van Wezel was a member of the
: CHU.
: Since membership of these parties was pretty
: strict along religious lines, we can safely
: assume that her father is protestant and
: therefor she is most likely protestant as
: well.

: Some Questions, Henri (I have not found the
: answers in the Benelux board thread,
: either):
: - Who has announced the marriage? Any
: official communique by the Duke of Parma?
: - Is the bride Catholic?
: - If his father has issued a communique, how
: is Carlos Javier referred? Is the the Prince
: of Piacenza, the Duke of Madrid or simply
: Prince Carlos Javier de Bourbon de Parme?
: If would be interesting to know the answers
: to these questions. Thanks.
