Thank you so much. I really appreciate your post. I will study it with great care.
Again, thank you. It is so interesting.
As crazy as it sounds, I wonder if any of these offsprings have suffered from hemophilia
I was going to cut and paste if it had been a short answer, but the debate as to who is first in line gets rather involved. I recommend reading the whole thing.
Now the claim to the French throne is a real mess. Bourbon, Orleans and Napoleonic contenders.
Nice little chart of the various vacant thrones here. And lest monarchists lose heart, many of us are old enough to remember when the Spanish throne was vacant.

Interesting note - the same guy has claims to both Scotland and Barvaria.
Hemophilia is only passed through the mother, so only the female descendants of Queen Victoria, descended through her female offspring, could pass on hemophilia. The King of Spain’s father and uncles were good candidates, because their mother was a Victoria granddaughter, the daughter of Princess Beatriz, but none of them inherited it.
