An employee of Christie's action house displays a rare antique diamond tiara by Faberge, circa 1890, with a series of graduated old-cut diamond arches with knife edge collet spacers and central pear-shaped diamonds 11 May 2007 during a preview in Geneva. This tiara from the collection of Princess Maria Gabriella di Savoia is expected to fetch Euro 590 000-880 000

I need photo ID help! I saw this photo over at The Glittering Royals MB:
http://img522.imageshack.us/img522/9...0431429xp3.jpg
At first I figured the man next to Marie Jose (on the left) was Umberto, but then I saw he was in the middle behind Elisabeth. So who is the man next to Marie Jose? He looks an awful lot like Umberto but I know Umberto didn't have any brothers so could he have been a look-a-like cousin?

Emanuele Filiberto multato: troppo veloce Corriere della Sera
According to corriere.it the prince Emanuele was fined in Italy last summer with penalty of 370 eur because of driving too fast (140 km/h). He appealed against this decision beacuse in his opinion "the traffic sign was absent".

Complain
The interview to Princess Maria Gabriella di Saboya, which you have translated to English, was not done by Nati Abascal (she only did the styling of the reportage).
My name is Carlos Martorell and I made and signed the interview done for Hola. You can check that with the magazine.
Please have a look to my web and blog:

Thank you,
Carlos Martorell.

I always wondered when Italian monarchy ended.
It ended with last king Victor Emmanuel, in 1946, when in national plebiscite, Italians, chose republic over monarchy.
Victor Emmanuel was controversial figure,, he used to support Mussolini 
Victor Emmanuel III of Italy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Some info suggest that there are young members of Savoy royal family:
GENEALOGY OF THE ROYAL HOUSE of ITALY (HOUSE OF SAVOY)
I wonder if many Italians are interested in reinstating monarchy, how they feel about monarchy in general.

The answer above also responds to your other question

No, the last king of Italy was Umberto II, a.k.a the King of May, because he reinged only for one month.
He succumbed to Mussolini, rather than support him, because he feared that the Communist could took power, like they had done in Russia. At that time the whole nation was in a tumoil. The peasants rebelled to the landowners in the South, while up North workers organized all-out strikes against the bad working conditions. So he preferred to install a Fascist dictatorship, rather than help his subjects improve their lives.

You're welcome! She looks a lot like her Mom. Sadly this beautiful princess was very unlucky, with all those tragedies happening in her family.

Yes he was back in the late 70's and early 1980.
Back to the Savoy royals I do see strong family
traits when looking at these nice but also sad
photos.
