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:
“Some [adolescent] girls are depressed because they have lost their warm, open relationship with their parents. They have loved and been loved by people whom they now must betray to fit into peer culture. Furthermore, they are discouraged by peers from expressing sadness at the loss of family relationships—even to say they are sad is to admit weakness and dependency.”
—Mary Pipher (20th century)
“Views of women, on one side, as inwardly directed toward home and family and notions of men, on the other, as outwardly striving toward fame and fortune have resounded throughout literature and in the texts of history, biology, and psychology until they seem uncontestable. Such dichotomous views defy the complexities of individuals and stifle the potential for people to reveal different dimensions of themselves in various settings.”
—Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)
“The agent’s steep and steady stare
Corroded to a grin.
Why, you black old, tough old hell of a man,
Move your family in!”
—Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
