The husband (Claus von Amsberg) of Queen Beatrix (queen of The Netherlands) has
Parkinson. He does not avoid being in public. He suffers especially from
bradykinesia. It has never been a secret, but it is not much talked about in
the Press. On an official visit to australia the local press wrote negative
about him calling him psychic disturbed. The Dutch press reacted with some
anger. I haven't a clue wether in the US he is a known person.
