The current Prince Regnant was born as the eldest son of Prince Franz Josef II and Princess Gina towards the end of the Second World War. He is the 15th reigning Prince of the House of Liechtenstein. Together with his siblings, he grew up at Vaduz Castle and studied business administration and economics at the University of St. Gallen after leaving school.

In 1984, Prince Franz Josef II entrusted the then Hereditary Prince with the affairs of state. Prince Hans-Adam II took over the regency after the death of his father on November 13, 1989. The Prince was married to Princess Marie-Aglaë (1940-2021) and is the father of four children. He appointed his eldest son Alois as his deputy in 2004.
