The rumour circulating on Google is that Luxembourg’s Princess Alexandra is dead, but you should not believe everything you read online.

The disturbing but wholly inaccurate suggestion appears when one keys in the words “Princess Alexandra of Luxembourg” into Google.

Internet visitors are then confronted with a biography of the 25-year-old Princess, who it falsely suggests died on July 22, 2016.

The blunder comes after German magazine “Gala” announced that Princess Claire and Prince Félix were expecting their second child under the headline “Baby news in Belgium”.

The headline was misleading given that Prince Félix is the second son of Grand Duke Henri and Grand Duchess Maria-Teresa and he and his wife live in France.
