Victoria of Savoy Manuel Filiberto's hot daughter, to fight for the abolished throne
Victor Emmanuel of Savoy
, son of
Umberto II
, the last king of Italy, died this Saturday in
Geneva
, where his family went into post-war exile, at the age of 86, according to a statement from the former royal house of Savoy.
"At 7:05 this morning (6:05 GMT), His Royal Highness Victor Emmanuel passed away peacefully, surrounded by his family," indicated the note from the noble house, which reigned in Italy since its birth in 1861 until 1946 (and also briefly in Spain, between 1871 and 1873, with Amadeo I).
The death of the man considered by the monarchists to be the heir to the throne of Italy, occurs a few months after in 2023 he and his wife, the former water skiing champion
Marina Doria
, sold their mansion on the outskirts of Geneva and auctioned some of the most exclusive objects that they had treasured there.
