Life and career

Guillermo was born in Utrecht, the Netherlands, as the eldest child and son of Princess Christina and Havana-born Cuban exile Jorge Perez y Guillermo. His mother was the youngest child of Queen Juliana and of Prince Bernhard of Lippe-Biesterfeld. He has one younger brother Nicolas Guillermo (born 1979) and one younger sister Juliana Guillermo (born 1981). Guillermo and his siblings did not receive any royal title because his mother Princess Christina, at that time ninth in line for the Dutch throne, renounced her, and her children's, rights to the throne before converting to Catholicism and marrying a commoner, his father, in 1975. His paternal uncle is the American Professor of Film Studies Gilberto Perez y Guillermo.

On 2 March 2009 in a civil ceremony in New York City, he married Eva Marie Valdez, an editor, who has worked for several New York publishing houses, including Rizzoli. She had previously been married to Andrew Michael Prinz. Their religious wedding ceremony took place on 5 September 2009 at the Queen of All Saints Church in Brooklyn, at which many members of Dutch Royal Family were present. Together they have two children: a girl, Isabel Christina Guillermo (born 13 April 2009), and a boy, Julian Jorge Guillermo (born 21 September 2011).

In April 2013 Valdez was controversially named as responsible for the break-up of the marriage of Kim Gordon and Thurston Moore of the New York experimental rock band Sonic Youth. In the article it was claimed that Valdez was in open relationship with Guillermo, although that is denied by those who know the couple and the article failed to cite its own sources.
