Yes that is her son Heinrich Nick.Among the guests is Desiree Nick, a German celebrity who had a long relationship with Prince Heinrich of Hannover. The two have a son together, which I assume is the one she is pictured with.
Since the titles are part of the name they take the name, but are not entitled to the title itself. Max Prinz von Schaumburg-Lippe is as royal as my left pinky toe.My understanding is that in Germany, legitimate, illegitimate or adoptive children all may correctly take the royal titles of their parents, as royal titles are recognized as surnames and are dealt with by the same laws.

I'm just wondering why we bother with these people who many of us know are not royal at all.

The titles are, according to the law, not titles anymore, but part of the name. Max's surname is Prinz von Schaumburg-Lippe in the same way that Huntington is part of the actress Rosie Huntington-Whiteley's surname meaning that it's just a name.I'm afraid I don't understand how the title in the name could be taken without "taking the title itself". As far as I have seen, modern German law makes no difference between legitimate and adoptive or illegitimate descendants.
