In 1938, while travelling between Cannes and Paris, Sydney met with a road accident and was left with a limp, which allowed him to use a Faberge cane that enhanced his already elegant appearance.
Sydney moved to the United States and became a U.S. citizen on September 1, 1943.
In 1945, Sydney was arrested in New York for theft.
The New York Times reported on February 18, 1945 that the prince had stated that his own "considerable funds were unavailable" to him, and that he had "only a couple of thousand dollars in the bank, not nearly enough to maintain my usual style of living".
Despite the request of his accuser that he be freed on probation, Sydney was convicted and imprisoned at City Prison.
It was reported in the New York Times on April 2, 1946 that after aiding in the recovery of some of the property, spending nine months of a one-year term in prison and after his mother had made full restitution, that he was released from prison.

In 1948, he returned to Europe and lived between London, Cannes and St. Moritz.
His company was eagerly sought after by the highest echelons of international society.
At Le Rosey, his closest friend was Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, who later sent Sydney a special invitation for his coronation in 1967.
In 1967 his mother died and left him a considerably wealthy man.
However, in 1980, by Act of Congress, his U.S. citizenship was reinstated, and he died a United States citizen.
