Lady Gabriella's mother was born Baroness Marie Christine von Reibnitz, and in 1978, when she married Prince Michael, she earned the right to use her husband's title. However, his title does not enable her to use the title Princess with her own Christian name, she could only use that if she had been born royal. For the same reason, the Duchess of Sussex could go by Princess Harry for example, but can not go by Princess Meghan
Lady Gabriella has an older brother, Lord Frederick, who married Sophie Winkleman in 2009. The two grew up in Kensington Palace, in an apartment paid for by The Queen until 2008 when members of Parliament demanded Prince and Princess Michael pay the full market-rate amount of £120,000.
