Marriage and issue
On 5 June 1943 at Schloss Prillwitz in Potsdam, Magdalena married Prince Hubertus of Prussia, a younger son of William, German Crown Prince and Duchess Cecilie of Mecklenburg-Schwerin.[1][2][3][4] He had previously been married to Baroness Maria Anna von Humboldt-Dachdroeden, whom he divorced the year he married Magdalena.[3][4][5]
The couple settled briefly in Silesia but were forced to flee west with their infant daughter Anastasia from the advancing Red Army.[2] Hubertus found work managing several wineries in 1947, and the couple had their second daughter that same year. Hubertus moved to south-western Africa in 1950 to begin a new life as a sheep farmer; he chose to leave because it "was a haven of rest far distant from the political turmoil in Germany".[2] Magdalena and their two daughters planned to join him in Windhoek in the summer of that year.[2] Hubertus caught appendicitis and died from peritonitis in April the following year with his wife by his side.[3]
Magdalena moved back to Germany with her two daughters, where she raised them. Anastasia married the Hereditary Prince of Löwenstein-Wertheim-Rosenberg in 1965, and Marie Christine died the next year in a car accident.[2]
They had two daughters:
- Princess Anastasia Victoria Cecilia Hermine of Prussia (born February 14, 1944). Married Alois-Konstantin, 9th Prince of Löwenstein-Wertheim-Rosenberg and had issue.
- Princess Marie Christine of Prussia (July 18, 1947–May 29, 1966) who died from injuries resulting from a car accident.[3]
Magdanela died on 10 October 2009 at her daughter Anastasia's home.[1][2][3] She was the last surviving daughter-in-law of Crown Prince Wilhelm. Magdalena was buried next to her husband at St. Michaels Bastei, near Burg Hohenzollern.[2][3]
