Had hoped for both branches of the Bourbon Sicilies branch to merge by marriage with the heirs to marry, the Duca di Noto and Princess Maria Carolina of Bourbon Sicilies. But Prince Carlos, Duke of Castro broke ranks and then made his eldest daughter heiress.. Which outsteps to the laws of male to male descendants to Pretenders of Two Sicilies.
