Aga Khan divorces German princess after dispute - Europe news - Boston.com

The Aga Khan, spiritual leader to millions of Muslims, has finalized his divorce from a German princess after years of legal dispute.

Lawyers for the Aga Khan and his ex-wife, Gabriele Renate Inaara Zu Leiningen, released a statement Friday saying their marriage ‘‘ends by consent’’ after the Paris Court of Appeals approved a divorce settlement.

The lawyers said terms of the settlement are confidential. The two married in 1998 and had a son, and started divorce proceedings several years later.
