I find that the whole "son of a CEO" or what have you idea never quite works for me.
It doesn't mean the same thing. Even if you made L'Arachel the indulgent and imaginative niece of, say, a devout and conservative governor of Virginia, it's not quite the same thing. Modern-day royalty doesn't have the same "essence," as most of them don't have power. And the dynasties that do have power, like Kim Jong Il and his son, tend to scare the hell out of people.
