Early life
Hubert was born on 31 March 1926 at the family castle in Mełgiew in Świdnik, Poland but moved to France at the age of eight. He was a son of Elisabeth d'Ornano and Count Guillaume d'Ornano, a co-founder of Lancôme in 1935 (which was acquired by L'Oreal in 1964). His elder brother was Count Michel d'Ornano, who served as Minister of Culture under Prime Minister Raymond Barre.
Through his paternal great-grandfather, Rodolphe-Auguste d'Ornano, he was a direct descendant of Countess Marie Walewska and Count Philippe Antoine d'Ornano, a Napoleonic officer who was made Marshal of France.
