Royal Wedding Alert: . . . On Saturday, 8th July, Prince Amaury of Bourbon-Parma married religiously in Autun cathedral, in Burgundy, Pélagie de Mac Mahon. Prince Amaury is the son of Prince Charles-Emmanuel and Princess Constance of Bourbon-Parma. On the paternal side, his grand-father was Prince Michel of Bourbon-Parma (1926-2018, brother of the late Queen Anne of Romania), and his great-grand parents were Prince René of Bourbon-Parma (1894-1962, son of Robert I, last reigning Duke of Parma, and brother of Zita, Empress of Austria and Queen of Hungary) and Princess Margaretha of Denmark (1895-1992). The bride is a great-great-grand-daughter of the third president of the French republic, Marshall Patrice de Mac-Mahon, 1st Duke of Magenta (1808-1893, French president from 1873 to 1879), but also the great-grand-daughter of Princess Marguerite of Orleans, wife of the 2nd Duke of Magenta (1869-1940, daughter of Prince Robert of Orleans, Duke of Chartres, himself a grand-son of King Louis-Philippe). Pélagie is the sister of Maurice de Mac Mahon, the 5th (and current) Duke of Magenta. Among the guests were Prince Charles of Bourbon-Parma, head of the Parma ducal house, and his wife Annemarie, Prince Alexander of Schaumburg-Lippe and his wife Princess Mahkameh, Prince Pedro of Bourbon-Sicilies, Duke of Calabria (one of the two claimants to the Two-Sicilian throne) and his son Prince Jaime, Duke of Noto. The bride wore a lovely laurel-leaf diamond tiara, and a pair of pearl and diamond double-cluster earrings. It’s not known if these jewels are Bourbon-Parma or Mac Mahon heirlooms (Prince Amaury's mother and sister wore a different, meander-style tiara for their weddings, but the central fleur-de-lys motif of Princess Pélagie's tiara could suggest a Bourbon provenance).
