China's new Princess - the daughter of Communist president Xi Jinping studying quietly at Harvard
Xi Mingze, 20, has been studying at the leading US university under a pseudonym since 2010 'She is a bookworm, very quiet and studious' Xi is said to have 24 hour protection from bodyguards
By Sharon Churcher
Demurely dressed in a high-necked jumper on a chilly autumn day, the pretty 20-year-old brunette could be any university student.
But this photograph posted on Facebook shows Xi Mingze, the new 'princess' of China.
As the cherished only daughter of China's new president Xi Jinping, Ms Xi, nicknamed Muzi, is being expensively educated in the US, where she has been enrolled under a pseudonym since 2010 at Harvard University, Massachusetts.
'She is a bookworm, very quiet and studious,' one of her acquaintances, a Chinese writer, told The Mail on Sunday last night.
Though she is said to be protected by bodyguards, she has shunned the party lifestyle of another Chinese 'princeling' at Harvard, Bo Guagua.
Mr Bo, whose mother Gu Kailai murdered British businessman Neil Heywood, was renowned at Oxford and Harvard as a playboy. His politician father, Bo Xilai, faces corruption charges.

She’s probably less Communist than most of the Harvard professors.

Funny thing is, I put her name in Chinese characters through Google Translate, and her last name (習) translated as study.
The press is certainly lauding Hsi Chin-p'ing excessively, and acting like his family is royalty.

the daughter of Communist president Xi Jinping studying quietly at Harvard Hell by Harvard standard she's a right wing extremist. I'll bet she even believes in limited forms of the free market.

I bet it would be pretty awkward on a first date with her when they find out who her father is.

Chances are that her first date will be some clueless guy who has no idea of who she is. Therefore, it is a safe bet that no Chinese guy will date her.
The same thing happened to Putin's daughter. There was a ball in Moscow thrown by some international school. Putin's daughter showed up there. No Russian boy dared to asked her to dance, except a clueless S. Korean guy, a son of a S. Korean military attache at S. Korean embassy in Moscow.

You would expect her to be bossy, but she is really quite sweet, once you get to know her.

Kind of s#¡tty for the Mail to publish what sorority house she lives in. Just the fact that she goes to Harvard is all he information the public really has a right to expect.

China doesnt have royalty any more I think.You think correct. I picked that up also. The reference to "princess" is a lazy and uneducated writer trying to make sensation out of a woman who seems to do not much more than study.
