Not all love affairs last forever. When one princess loses her title, will another readily take her place and possibly share the same fate?

November 27th, 1932, Princess Louise Van Alen Mdivani appears in the Hague divorce court dissolving her 18 month marriage to Prince Alexis Mdivani. On December 7th, 1932, her cousin Princess Ava Alice Astor Obolensky will also get a divorce in Reno. Two marriages both end but for very different circumstances.
