I was surprised by the christening. I know Albania is a Muslim country, and I thought the former royals were also Muslim. Guess not.
According to their website Leka is Muslim and his wife is Albanian Orthodox and it seems like they’ve had Catholicism and Anglicanism in the mix as well!
“ An excellent example of religious co-existence is reflected in the Royal Family: The Queen Mother Sadije Toptani was a Bektashi Muslim, King Zog a Sunni Muslim, Queen Geraldine a Catholic, Queen Susan an Anglican. Prince Leka is Muslim and Princess Elia is an Albanian Orthodox.”
