==Biography==
He was born in [[Hagenburg]], the second son of [[Wolrad, Prince of Schaumburg-Lippe|Prince Wolrad of Schaumburg-Lippe]] and his wife Princess Bathildis of Schaumburg-Lippe (1903–1983). Following the death of his uncle [[Adolf II, Prince of Schaumburg-Lippe|Prince Adolf II]] in a plane crash in 1936, Philipp-Ernst's father Wolrad became the new head of the House of Schaumburg-Lippe.
After his older brother, Hereditary Prince Georg-Wilhelm, was killed in action at [[Nössige]], [[Saxony]], on 29 April 1945 during the second world war, Philipp-Ernst became the new heir apparent to the House of Schaumburg-Lippe. Philipp-Ernst succeeded to the headship of the house on the death of his father on 15 June 1962, and he remained head until his death at [[Bückeburg]], when he was succeeded by his only surviving son, [[Alexander, Prince of Schaumburg-Lippe|Alexander]].
==Marriage and children==
He was married to Eva-Benita Freiin von [[:de:Tiele-Winckler|Tiele-Winckler]] (1927–2013) at [[Bückeburg]] on 3 October 1955. She was the daughter of Hans-Werner Graf von Tiele-Winkler and wife Elisabeth Gräfin von Bassewitz. They had two sons, with the elder Georg-Wilhelm dying in a motorcycle accident in 1983.
