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:
“It’s a family joke that when I was a tiny child I turned from the window out of which I was watching a snowstorm, and hopefully asked, ‘Momma, do we believe in winter?’”
—Philip Roth (20th century)
“Productive collaborations between family and school, therefore, will demand that parents and teachers recognize the critical importance of each other’s participation in the life of the child. This mutuality of knowledge, understanding, and empathy comes not only with a recognition of the child as the central purpose for the collaboration but also with a recognition of the need to maintain roles and relationships with children that are comprehensive, dynamic, and differentiated.”
—Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)
“Wherever the citizen becomes indifferent to his fellows, so will the husband be to his wife, and the father of a family toward the members of his household.”
—Karl Wilhelm Von Humboldt (1767–1835)
