Marriage and Children
Mabel Wisse Smit and Prince Friso of Orange-Nassau married in Delft on 24 April 2004. Because he did not ask the Dutch parliament for permission for the marriage, Prince Friso lost his membership of the Netherlands' Royal House. Therefore, neither Prince Friso, Princess Mabel, nor their children are members of the Royal House or in the Dutch line of succession.
