Humbert II (Italian Umberto II) (September 15, 1904 - March 18, 1983), nicknamed the King of May (Italian Re di Maggio), was born the Prince of Piedmont.
Humbert and Maria José separated in exile; it was indeed an arranged marriage, following a long tradition of royal families, even if some observers alleged that she was really fascinated by her husband, an elegant tombeur de femmes.
Humbert was the last King of Italy; his first son, Prince of Naples, is the current Head of the House of Savoy.
