Family
Ranariddh has had two wives:
- Princess Eng Marie to whom he married in 1968, with whom he had 2 sons and one daughter. In 2006, Marie filed adultery charges against Ranariddh and a much-publicised scandal ensued. The couple formally divorced in 2009.
- Ouk Phalla, a former royal ballet dancer (and a distant member of the Royal family through the Sisowath line) with whom he has a son.
Before he was pardoned, he was living in Kuala Lumpur with his second wife and his son, Prince Norodom Sothearidh.

Famous quotes containing the word family:
“The law is equal before all of us; but we are not all equal before the law. Virtually there is one law for the rich and another for the poor, one law for the cunning and another for the simple, one law for the forceful and another for the feeble, one law for the ignorant and another for the learned, one law for the brave and another for the timid, and within family limits one law for the parent and no law at all for the child.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
“Children should know there are limits to family finances or they will confuse “we can’t afford that” with “they don’t want me to have it.” The first statement is a realistic and objective assessment of a situation, while the other carries an emotional message.”
—Jean Ross Peterson (20th century)
“Family lore can be a bore, but only when you are hearing it, never when you are relating it to the ones who will be carrying it on for you. A family without a storyteller or two has no way to make sense out of their past and no way to get a sense of themselves.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
