I dont think that'll happen anytime soon, though Wend's eldest son and eldest daughter (Friedrich and Anna) were in fact betrothed to the children of the crown prince of the Helmut kingdom soon after their birth... which means that Wendelin's branch will eventually become relatives of the royal family.

On another note, his mistress Therese (as a former duchess and prince-elector of the Holy Urqhart empire) technically WAS a "princess", if we analyze it from a historical perspective:

The fact that her political influence and social rank within the empire is so high - not to mention the various complex socio-political connotations associated with it - is the main reason why it isn't even an option for Wend to officially marry her.
