Duke Miguel of Braganza and his family

Frankly, I believe nor Pedro neither Miguel were white doves...

Filippa Maria of Braganza (1905-1990)

Thank you so much Rani for posting those photos.

And what a great resemblance between the current Prince of Beira D.Afonso and his father on the last but one photo - together with Infanta D.Filipa

Adelgundes, Countess of Bardi; her husband Enrico was Roberto I of Parma's brother; while Roberto had 24 children (12 with his second wife, her sister), Adelgundes and Enrico never had any children (she is the only one of her siblings not to have had any children of her own).:

Does anyone of you have more pictures of Adelgunde? She was truly beautiful. It's so sad she had 9 miscarriages. 

Enrico de Bardi also didn't have children with his first wife, Maria Immacolata of Bourbon Two Sicilies.

Where you read she had 9 miscarriages??

Princess Irmingard von Bayern: "Jugenderinnerungen"

I see. I thought also something on Count de Bardi's side of the family. Enrico de Bardi also didn't have children in the first marriage. His uncle, Count de Chambord and great uncle duc de Angoulême were also childless.

The Count de Chambord's inability to have offspring most likely stems from a riding accident he had when young.  Certain parts of his body, important for the reproductive system, sustained considerable damage.  The young man was between life and death as a consequence of the accident.

 Adelgundes and Enrico never had any children (she is the only one of her siblings not to have had any children of her own).:

Infanta D.Maria das Neves and Infante Alfonso Carlos de Borbon didn't have any children either.

By the way, also King Manuel II  of Portugal had no offspring with his wife, Queen Augusta Victoria...does anyone know something about this?

Enrico de Bardi also didn't have children with his first wife, Maria Immacolata of Bourbon Two Sicilies.

Maria Luisa Bourbon-Two Sicilies. Right?


I also would love to see any other images of Adelgunde. I have always thought her to be  the loveliest of the sisters. She was very attractive.

Yes, Maria Luisa, however her real name was Maria Immaculata Luisa, aber we talk about her as Maria Luisa, so we can make out her of her sister Maria Immakulata, the ADss Karl Salvator.
