Despite his grandfather’s morganatic marriage to [[Countess Ina Marie von Bassewitz|Ina-Marie von Bassewitz, Countess of Ruppin]], Prince Oskar’s dynastic claim is still believed legitimate by some who subscribe to Hohenzollern House Law  - alleged invoked by Wilhelm II to formally recognize Oskar's and Ina-Maria's family as dynastic.  If this ruling carries legal weight, Prince Oskar is 
foursixth in the current [[line of succession to the German throne]].

===Marriage and issue===
Oskar was married to Auguste Zimmermann von Siefart (born in [[Amsterdam]], the [[Netherlands]], on May 16, 1962) on October 3, 1992.  The couple have three children:  an older son, Oskar Julius Alvo Carlos, Prince of Prussia (born in 1993); a daughter, Wilhelmine, Princess of Prussia (1995); and a younger son, Albert Burchard Carl Marcus Nikolaus, Prince of Prussia (1998).   Oskar and Albert rank fifseventh and sixeighth in the [[line of succession to the former German throne]].
