Princess Aurora Pavlovna Demidova di San Donato (2/3 November 1873 in Kiev – 28 June (OS: 16 June) 1904 in Turin) was a Russian noblewoman and by birth member of the House of Demidov.

Early life[]

Aurora was born as the eldest daughter of Pavel Pavlovich Demidov, 2nd Prince of San Donato, and his second wife, Princess Elena Petrovna Trubetskoy (1853–1917). Her father was the son of the Finnish-Swede philanthropist Aurora Stjernvall von Waleen and her Russian husband, Pavel Nikolaievich Demidov. Her mother was daughter of Prince Peter Nikitich Trubetskoy (1826–1880) and Princess Elizabeth Belosselsky-Belozersky.

First marriage[]

She married Prince Arsen of Serbia, in Saint Petersburg on 1 May 1892. They had a son, Prince Paul of Yugoslavia, who later became the Regent of Yugoslavia. She and Arsen divorced in 1896 because of an adventure of Aurora with a young Baron von Meyendorff-Uexküll. The fruit of this "adventure" was the birth of twins, Nikolai (1895–1933) and Sergei (1895–1912). Nikolai is also buried next to his mother in the Russian cemetery (Caucade) of Nice.

Second marriage[]

She remarried an Italian Count Nicola Giovanni Maria di Noghera (Eboli, 15 June 1875 – Genoa1 April 1944) on 4 November 1897, with whom she had four children: Helena Aurora, Alberto, Giovanni, and Amedeo di Noghera.
