SPAIN’S DUCHESS OF ALBA REMARRIES AT 85

Spain's Duchess of Alba, whose full name is Maria del Rosario Cayetana Victoria Alfonsa Fitz-James Stuart y de Silva, has married civil servant Alfonso Díez, 25 years her junior.

85-year-old Cayetana Fitz-James Stuart, the Duchess of Alba and possessor of more aristocratic titles than anyone else in the world, has married Alfonso Diez, making the commoner the Duke of Alba.

The wedding took place in the chapel of one of the Duchess's palaces, the Dueñas Palace in Seville, with a variety of high-profile Spaniards, including the bride's children, in attendance.

The Spanish aristocrat has 46 titles, as she is a duchess, a countess and a marquesa several times over. Her wealth is valued at an estimated at nearly $4.9 billion and when combined, her property is 170 times the size of Monaco.
