Do you mean the majority of family members or the majority of Sicilian monarchists? I was under the impression that Francesco hasn't publicly staked a claim to the (future) headship and Duc_et_Pair was describing a hypothetical situation.

Yes, the hypothetical situation that the Duke of Castro passes away and leaves his daughter Princess Maria Carolina as the new head of the House.

Before his unilateral declaration (to assign his daughters as his heirs) his cousin Don Francesco and then his cousin's son Don Antonio were the heirs for the headship of the House (Italian branch).

Unless Princess Maria Carolina (17) and her distant couin Prince Antonio (17) find each other, uniting the two Castro-supporting branches. But the ultimate jetset lifestyle of Camilla and her two girls make it most unlikely to see an old-fashioned Borbone - Borbone union for the sake of the House. But one never knows... When the Castro claim os weakened, it helps the Calabria claim, that is for sure.

The Calabria's are far more discreet than than the Castro's who seem more celebrity than royalty.

That is true but I think the Duke of Castro is a laissez-faire, laissez-passer type of guy: all what his three ladies do seems completely okay with him. I would have been more in Naples (a vibrant and fiery city with enormous social, economic, urban and crime problems) and engage in projects there. Better than jetsetting in milliardaires' paradises like Monaco. But okay, their choice. Not the wisest one, in my humble opinion.

The Duke of Calabria also holds the lesser title of Count of Caserta another title which is disputed.

It looks like that's the only picture available of the future bride as that's the one that is included in all (the few) articles I've seen on the topic.

Pedro de Borbón-Dos Sicilias is the President of the Royal Council of Military Orders (Santiago, Calatrava, Alcántara and Montesa)
and that is why he was in the act in which the king presided and delivered the III Edition of the Spanish Orders History Prize
When the king climbs the stairs, the first to bow his head in a formal manner is Pedro.



The Bourbon-Dos Sicilias are not only family, but they have very good relationships.
Princess Cristina, sister of the Duke of the Duke of Calabria, has been seen many times in the company of her children and Queen Letizia (with her daughters- See the thread of the Billy Elliot musical), and the king is a close friend by Pedro López-Quesada (husband of Cristina de Borbón-Dos Sicilias)

The Duke of Calabria could be a good candidate to be named as "Infante de gracia". Time will tell if Felipe VI wants to do it

Duchess Elisabeth von Württemberg died shortly before her 89th birthday. Since 1958 she was married to Prince Antonio of the Two Sicilies, who died two years ago.
