Is there any French royal?

Question

Is there any French royal?

Answer 1

me.

Answer 2

yes My dear Friend the Count Pont Du Chardon...

Answer 3

There are certainly families descended from french royalty (and imperialists) and some of them may even still be in some sort of power somewhere, but as France is now a Republic, none of them have the right to call themselves the Royalty of France. France no longer answers to any hereditary rulers.

Answer 4

The prince Henry(in Denmark called "Henrik") of Denmark is the husband of the Danish Queen. That makes him Royal. Formerly he was a count.

Answer 5

There isn't any more, but I know there used to be.

Answer 6

Henri de Laborde de Monpezat was not a count. His family was self-styled.

There is French royalty. Look at the House of Bourbon proper, which is headed by Louis Alphonse, Duke of Anjou, claimant to the French throne as Louis XX.

There is also the House of Orléans, the head of which, Henri, Count of Paris and Duke of France, claims the title "King of the French" as Henry VII. The House of Orléans is a junior branch of the House of Bourbon.

Arguably, the entire House of Bourbon is French royalty. In the time of the monarchy they were called "the House of France". Today that would include the Spanish Royal Family and the Luxembourgish Grand Ducal Family and the formerly reigning families of the Dukes of Parma and Kings of the Two Sicilies.

So yes, there is French royalty. While the Legitimists (supports of Louis Alphonse de Bourbon) and the Orléanists (supporters of Henri d'Orléans)  dispute who is the French king, there is a French *imperial* family as well, the House of Bonaparte.
