Prince Dhirendra Bir Bikram Shah Dev of Nepal (Nepali: अधिराजकुमार धिरेन्द्र बीर विक्रम शाह देव) (4 Jan 1950 – 1 June 2001) was the youngest son of King Mahendra of Nepal and his first wife, Crown Princess Indra.[1]

Education

He studied with his brothers King Birendra and King Gyanendra in St Joseph's College, Darjeeling, India; and in 1969, he graduated from Tribhuvan University, Kathmandu.

Life

His mother Indra died due to birth complications.[2]

Prince Dhirendra was often described as the "wayward" one among Mahendra's sons. He was described as fun-loving, generous and kind. When he was in school, he was interested in theatre. Prince Dhirendra was also interested in sports. He had a black belt (2 Dan) in Judo from Kodokan Judo Institute, Japan. He was also a chief scout of Nepal and patron of the National Sports Council. In 1987, he was the chairman of the National Youth Services Foundation. In 1974, he represented the king at the coronation of Bhutanese King Jigme Singye Wangchuck.

Prince Dhirendra renounced his title of Prince and the style of His Royal Highness because of his relationship with a foreigner in December 1987. After that, he lived in England until he returned to Nepal in 1998.

Marriages and family

On 13 May 1973, he married his second cousin (and the sister of the wives of his brothers, Queen Aishwarya and Queen Komal), Princess Prekshya (19 January 1956 – 12 November 2001). From this marriage, he had three daughters:

  • Princess Puja Rajya Lakshmi Devi (b. 1977).
  • Princess Dilasha Rajya Lakshmi Devi (b. 11 May 1979).
  • Princess Sitashma Rajya Lakshmi Devi (b. 1981).[3]

The couple did not get along. He and Prekshya separated when he renounced the style of Royal Highness, which Prekshya did not. Dhirendra went to live in London with an English woman who became his partner.[4]

Death

Dhirendra was killed in the June 1, 2001 royal massacre at Narayanhiti Royal Palace, during one of his rare visits to the country. He was due to regain his title and place in the line of succession.

Mertens conjecture
