That was intersting Lucien. Two killed as Sixtus and his group attacked the rally of his brother's supporters? Must have made for interesting family get-togethers.

Interesting get-out of there's would be more appropiate Warren.Leave that to Sixtus,he's the family nuisance,always was.
I never forgave him,as I said in a previous post on the previous page,I wasn't joking.The man is mad,insane really.

That last post that lucien made is disturbing and is Prince Carlos Hugo of Bourbon-Parma still trying to claim this right to the Spanish throne or ihas he stopped making claims to the throne? For anyone who answers this question thanks in advance.

Carlos-Hugo came to terms with his position a long time ago. I believe he gave up much of the ideals of Carlism at the time of the shooting incident, which led to a divorce from his wife (they noticed they didn't share much else than the cause they had been fighting for in vein) and a rift with his family, who stayed leaning to the ultra-catholic side.

Carlos-Hugo accepted Juan-Carlos as king of Spain soon enough too, and I believe it was reported that in the late 90-ties the Duke and the King had lunch together at Zarzuela. Some say that Prince Felipe and Princess Maria-Carolina were also present, but that might have been wishfull thinking (but what a great match it would have been).

Yes,the King and CH did have lunch together and old differences were buried for good.I've seen pics of that meeting at the time,IIRC at the Palacio del Oriente,in full regal splendour,but can't recall Princess Maria-Carolina being there as well.Sure,it was wishfull thinking,but good lord,what a match it would have been indeed!...sigh...

Dear Maria-Carolina did accompany her aunt,Queen Beatrix, at the funeral of HRH The Countess of Barcelona,the King's mother tho.

Carlos-Hugo,like Marengo said,has since decades given up the claim as he realised it wasn't in any way realistic anymore.
