Prince Harald of Schaumburg-Lippe (Harald Christian Leopold Gustav; b. 27 March 1948,[1] in Schloss Hagenburg, Niedersachsen) is the third son of Prince Christian of Schaumburg-Lippe and Princess Feodora of Denmark and the great-grandson of Frederick VIII of Denmark, a member of the Danish Royal Family.

He married Petra Wera Kirstein on 22 July 1976; they divorced in 1980. He married Gabrielle Hagermann on 23 September 1988.[1]

Under Danish law he is not in line to inherit the throne, as he is not descended from Christian X. He is however in line of succession to the British throne as a descendant of George II of Great Britain, through his daughter Queen Louisa of Denmark and Norway.
