The Duke and Duchess of Parma Present Their Son During Mass in Piacenza

During a mass today in Piacenza, the Duke and Duchess of Parma presented for the first time their infant son, Prince Carlos, to the people of the Duchy the family used to rule over.

Prince Carlos, who is the couple’s third child, is the heir to the Headship of the House of Bourbon-Parma and as such will one day become the titular Duke of Parma and Piacenza.

The visit to Piacenza, in the north of Italy, was the first of the baby Prince, born April 24 in The Hague, to the country.

   To Prince du desert: I think they chose Carlos because the Bourbon-Parma Family also claims the Spanish Throne. This might be the reason why they prefer the Spanish version of the name rather than the Italian.
