He frequently goes by the name of Jean Nassau. In 1986, he made the decision to renounce his right of succession to the Luxembourg throne.
There was great celebration amongst the royal family this week, following the arrival of a new heir. Grand Duke Henri's eldest son, Hereditary Grand Duke Guillaume and his wife Stephanie welcomed their first child, a baby boy named Prince Charles. Stephanie, who married Guillaume in October 2012, gave birth at the Grand Duchess Charlotte Maternity Hospital in Luxembourg City on 10 May.
Proud new father Guillaume, 38, made a video statement about his baby son on the day he was born, saying:"Today is a wonderful day for my wife and for myself and probably the most incredible day we will have because to be able to greet a child that comes into one's life is the most magical thing… this experience that we are living today, we are able to share also with our country people and with Luxembourg as a country.
He continued:"We are delighted to do so in a time that has been a bit more difficult especially for families who have been separated for a few months, which in the next weeks are going to be able to see each other again. A birth is a message of hope, it is a blessing. This is what we are so happy to be able to share with Luxembourg, but also over the borders with all the different countries.
