In general, some non-reigning houses seem to be 'stricter' in marrying 'the right spouses' than the reigning houses.

I think that is ridiculous. For a reigning royal family, since some of its members will be working for their country, there may be something to be said about marrying "suitably".. but for non reigning royals its just silly....
And I understand that he did challenge the will so presumably he would like to marry Carina and hoped there might be a way of doing it....
