Princess Henriette Anna-Bess Helle Mette Reuss (German: Henriette Prinzessin Reuss; born 2 June 1977 in Oslo) is a princess of the formerly sovereign German House of Reuss, rulers of the principalities of Reuss for almost a thousand years.[1] Her branch of the family reigned over the Principality of Reuss-Gera until 1918,[1] although she is not directly descended from any of the rulers. She is the daughter of Prince Heinrich Reuss, a native of Switzerland and Sweden, and his wife, Princess Mette Reuss, (née Rinde), a native of Norway.[1]

She is a step-daughter of pop singer Frida Lyngstad, who married her father in 1992.[2] Henriette lives in Switzerland, and is married to German businessman Jan Herud. During the first decade of the 21st century Princess Henriette lived in Boston, while her twin sister, Princess Pauline, lived in London.[1]
