Background

Cosima von Bülow was born 15 April 1967 in New York City.[3] She is third child of Sunny von Bülow and the only child of Claus von Bülow. Her great grandfather was Frits Toxwerdt von Bülow af Plüskow (1872–1955), a Danish minister of justice.

She has two siblings from her mother's first marriage; Princess Annie-Laurie "Ala" Henriette von Auersperg (born 1958) and Prince Alexander-Georg von Auersperg (born 1959). After her graduation from Brown University in 1989, she moved to London to join her father.[4]

She married the Italian banker[5] Count Riccardo Pavoncelli (born 8 October 1957 in Naples) in 1996.[6] He is the son of Giuseppe Pavoncelli (1929–2010) and Rosalba Morelli (b. 1935)[7] He is related to Giuseppe Pavoncelli (1836–1910). The couple has three children:

  • Nicolas Antonio Riccardo Pavoncelli, b. 10 August 1998
  • Marina Gaetana Pavoncelli, b. 20 June 2000
  • Antonia Carolina Pavoncelli, b. 23 November 2005[8]

She donates money to education programs, cultural institutions and cancer charities in Britain and administers a fund at New York City's Pierpont Morgan Library that buys drawings in her mother's name, the Sunny Crawford von Bülow Fund.[9]
