I've seen pictures of Prince Henrik in his earlier pre-marriage and marriage days. My maternal family is also from French origin, later settled in Barcelona, and after that were sent to Chile by a Spanish king. But I don't have many close relatives serving the Church, except for a first cousin of my grandfather, who is still alive and worked for many decades as an academic (apart from his religious duties).
