Prince von Ahole On the Hunt for Zsa Zsa's Eggs
(TMZ) Prince von Ahole's quest for a baby has taken an interesting turn -- it seems that somewhere out there, exists a batch of Zsa Zsa Gabor's frozen eggs ... if only the Prince could find them!

But the Prince now says he has been contacted by a woman who used to work for Zsa Zsa back in the 1960s, who claims Zsa Zsa had some of her eggs frozen at the time because she wanted a son ... but didn't have a husband.

Problem is ... Prince has no idea where the eggs might be. But he says there's a ton of paperwork in the house and he's hoping that somewhere lies the document that will point him in the right direction. Godspeed. more on this story
