House of Bourbon-Two Sicilies HRH Don Carlos Maria Alfonso Marcel of Bourbon-Two Sicilies & Borboun-Parma, Infante of Spain, Prince of the two Sicilies, Duke of Calabria (born 1938), cousin of the King, from the Bourbon-Two Sicilies family, received the title Infante of Spain by Royal Decree 2412 dated December 16, 1994[1]. Although it is often stated that this title was given in recognition of Don Carlos' status as head of the House of Bourbon-Two Sicilies, the wording of the decree does not support that view.

Don Carlos' father, Don Alphonso de Borbón-Dos Sicilies (who was heir presumptive to the Spanish Throne from 1904-08), and King Juan Carlos of Spain's mother were siblings. Don Carlos' mother belongs to the Bourbon-Parma family that used to rule the Italian Duchy of Parma. His wife belongs to the French branch of the House of Bourbon. His wife's mother belonged to the Brazilian branch of the Bourbons. Being a representative of the family descended from someone who nearly became Queen, descended from two former heirs presumptive, having immediate connections (father, mother, grandmother, wife, mother-in-law) to all branches of the vast Bourbon Dynasty, and the family that provided the mother of the current King is much more relevant to Spain that any link Don Carlos might have with the long defunct Kingdom of the Two Sicilies.
