Bernardo Federico Tomás Guillermo (born 17 June 1977, Utrecht, Netherlands) is a furniture designer and a more distant member of the Dutch Royal Family. He is a first cousin of King Willem-Alexander and Carlos, Duke of Parma.
Guillermo was born in Utrecht, the Netherlands, as the eldest child and son of Princess Christina and Havana-born Cuban exile Jorge Pérez y Guillermo. His mother was the youngest child of Queen Juliana and of Prince Bernhard of Lippe-Biesterfeld. He has one younger brother Nicolás Guillermo (born 1979) and one younger sister Juliana Guillermo (born 1981). Guillermo and his siblings did not receive any royal title because his mother Princess Christina, at that time ninth in line for the Dutch throne, renounced her, and her children's, rights to the throne before converting to Catholicism and marrying a commoner, his father, in 1975. His paternal uncle is the American Professor of Film Studies Gilberto Pérez y Guillermo.
