Prince Bernhard Lucas Emmanuel of Orange-Nassau, van Vollenhoven[1] (born 25 December 1969) is a Dutch entrepreneur and a member of the Dutch royal family.
He is the second son of Princess Margriet of the Netherlands and Pieter van Vollenhoven. Before the succession of his cousin Willem-Alexander as King, he was a member of the Dutch Royal House and eleventh in the line of succession to the Dutch throne. With Willem-Alexander's succession however, he is no longer a member of the Dutch Royal House, and is no longer in line to direct succession to the Dutch throne, but still retains his membership of the Dutch royal family [2]
