		He was furious and the decision to draw up the Act of Cannes, made in haste, was certainly inspired by this news as he reasonably feared that should Carlo became King-Consort and later inherit the Two Sicilies claim, that the latter would be forgotten or suppressed.

		The Kings of the Two Sicilies had firmly stated their rights to the Spanish throne in their two protests against the Pragmatic Sanction of 1830/33, which repealed Salic law in Spain.

	BBC - h2g2 - Marie de Medici
		As well as Marie, Catherine de Medici was the consort of a previous King, Francis I. The Habsburgs ruled a vast amount of Europe, as well as being Holy Roman Emperors, they were the Grand Dukes of Austria and the Kings of Spain.
		Marie's position was further weakened by public discomfort over the amount of influence seemingly wielded by Marie's lady-in-waiting Leonora Galigaï and her husband Concini over both Marie and the French government; in fact, it was commonly believed that Marie had more or less allowed the couple to run things as they saw fit.
		Realising that her influence had waned, Marie crossed the Channel to reside in the court of her son-in-law, Charles I of Great Britain, but the British Protestants there were fearful of a return to the witch-hunts of Tudor times so she was encouraged to leave, finally settling in Germany in 1641.
