Miguel was not allowed in Portugal. There was no such person as Princess Anita Rhinelander Stewart. Stewart was her maiden name. Rhinelander her middle name. Her husband had a Spanish passport. Not a Portuguese. In those days, an American woman lost her citizenship when she married a foreigner. She had to regain her citizenship after his death. Note the date of the original story.

He was son and heir of Dom Miguel, Duke of Bragança, who was considered by the traditional royalists King of Portugal under the name of Dom Miguel II.<br />Princess Anita Rhinelander Stewart de Bragança was too Portuguese Princess, and she received also the ancient title of Duchess of Viseu when she married.

Moreover, Miguel's marriage to Anita Rhinelander Stewart was not morganatic, as morganatic marriages do not exist in Portuguese law. Miguel did not renounce rights to the throne until on July 21, 1920, when he renounced for himself and for his descendants. <br />Miguel never became an American citizen, nor did he marry Anita in the US. They were married in Scotland. Anita lost her US citizenship when she married, but was able to regain it after her husband's death.<br />Miguel apparently was granted Spanish nationality, which would have given him the right to have a Spanish passport.Marlene Eilers Koenighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14984860671065161997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8762674434623075554.post-57902634895298357512011-02-04T21:33:49.383-05:002011-02-04T21:33:49.383-05:00For Christ sake!
