Wolfgang Porsche's fourth marriage
It has been reported that Wolfgang Porsche, chairman of Porsche, has married for the fourth time this year, 55 years after his first marriage.
Wolfgang Porsche was first married in 1970 and then twice more, but divorce proceedings with his third wife were underway in 2023.
Porsche is currently 82 years old, and his wife is 20 years younger than him, at 62. Her longtime lover is Gabriele zu Leiningen.
The wedding was a private ceremony held in Salzburg, Austria, and details about the ceremony have not been released to protect their privacy.
The two have been together for over 20 years, and after spending a vacation in the Maldives in January 2023, they began living together that same year.
As of 2024, the Porsche family is the seventh richest family in Germany, with an estimated net worth of 52.8 billion euros (approximately 9,623,143,200,000 yen at today's rates!).
Wolfgang is the grandson of Porsche founder Ferdinand Porsche and the youngest son of Ferdinand (Ferry) Porsche and Dorothea Reitz.
He was also the brother of Ferdinand (Butzi) Porsche, who designed the 911.
Gabriele zu Leiningen was born in Frankfurt and was formerly a consultant for UNESCO. She was first married to Prince Karl Emich Leiningen but divorced in 1998.
She later converted to Islam and married Prince Aga Khan IV, the leader of the Ismaili sect, before divorcing him in 2014.
This marriage to Porsche marks her third.
Gabriele zu Leiningen is a former aristocrat and a descendant of the Thyssen family, which is the origin of ThyssenKrupp, Germany's largest steel company.
It seems that both families were from distinguished families.
This is their fourth and third marriages, respectively, and we hope that this bond will last for a long time to come.
Congratulations on your marriage ^^

I'm Rika, the author of this article. Since I got my hands on a Porsche 911, I've been completely hooked on Porsches and I can't stop loving them, so I started this blog. My favorite cars are the 911 Carrera (2/991), 911 Carrera Cabriolet & 911 Carrera T (1/992), GT3 (1/997) and 718 Cayman GT4 RS.
