In a groundbreaking move, Princess Xenia Florence Gabriela Sophie Iris of Saxony has shattered centuries-old royal traditions by gracing the cover of Playboy Germany's March 2024 issue. The 37-year-old aristocrat, a descendant of the German House of Wettin, has made history as the first royal to pose for the iconic magazine, challenging societal norms and embracing her individuality.
The captivating images showcase Princess Xenia in sheer white undergarments, elegantly challenging conventions and leaving little to the imagination. In an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital, she shared her motivation behind the bold decision.
“I think it’s the right time,” she expressed. “It’s the first and last time I get naked, Playboy exclusive material, but it was such an experience.”
Princess Xenia, whose noble ancestors include the last king of Saxony, Friedrich August III, highlighted the evolution in societal expectations and her journey towards breaking free from traditional royal constraints.
“It changed because, 10 years ago, it was just the men in my family who had the power,” Xenia explained. “But then I decided to make my own way, my own path. Now, I’m happier than ever.”
Acknowledging the support from her family, she mentioned consulting her mother before the shoot. “Her opinion was important to me. She said, ‘You know what girl? If you feel it, then do it.’ That was the key, and I felt it. So, everyone was fine with it."
In an attempt to empower women, Xenia shared her desire to convey that all bodies are beautiful as they are. She revealed her journey towards self-acceptance, resisting societal pressures, and embracing her identity as a mother.
“I’ve had all these thoughts in my mind about getting bigger breasts,” she admitted. “But then I was like, ‘No, I’m a mom. I have [stretch] marks. I’m skinny, but that’s OK. It’s OK to have little boobs.’ That was my decision. … I’m proud to have a working body. I really don’t care about the size."
Xenia, known for her past as a reality TV star, also opened up about the challenges of finding genuine connections as a princess.
“It’s not always my bad at these things!” she insisted. “Maybe three or four … but that’s not the easy part of being a princess. You never know if people want you for your title or just yourself."
With her royal upbringing and exposure to the spotlight, Princess Xenia remains unapologetic about her choices and addressed critics with a powerful message.
“How dare you tell me what a princess should do?” she said. “Who are you? I am a princess, and I can do whatever I want, as everyone else should.”
In an unexpected twist, Xenia also shared a spiritual connection with her royal ancestor, feeling his approval during a meditative moment before the shoot.
“I felt like he did this little wink to me and said, ‘Do it.’ I know, it’s so crazy, but I just felt that I had his approval. I can’t tell you why, but that’s the feeling I got, yes.”
Princess Xenia's bold move challenges preconceived notions of royalty, redefining the narrative and inspiring women to embrace their authenticity and defy societal expectations.
