February 16, 1935
Prince Louis Ferdinand of Bourbon-Orleans must leave France within the next three days under a suspended deportation order, according to a police statement. The prince, who is the younger son of Infanta Eulalia of Spain and the Duke of Galliera, was "among those caught in a raid by the morality squad." In 1930, Prince Louis Ferdinand caused a great scandal in Parisian society when he married Princess Marie Charlotte de Broglie, who had inherited a sugar fortune. At the time of the wedding, the Princess was 73-years-old and Prince Louis Ferdinand was 42.
The prince is a first cousin to King Alfonso XIII of Spain. His older brother, Prince Alfonso, has lived a more respectable life. He is married to a British princess, Beatrice of Edinburgh, and they have three sons.
