18.1521 Princess Elizabeth of Bavaria 1874 1957 Baron Otto von Seefried auf Buttenheim 1870 1951 The marriage of Elizabeth and Otto caused a scandal in 1893. The couple eloped and were married on 2 December 1893 in Geneo despite strong opposition from her parents and her paternal grandfather Prince Luitpold of Bavaria (Regent of Bavaria). With the help of her maternal grandfather Emperor Franz Joseph of Austria a reconciliation with her parents was eventually achieved.
Otto who was a serving Bavarian officer at the time of the elopement and as a consequence was unable to return to Bavaria as he would have been tried for desertion. Franz Joseph arranged for the transfer of Otto to the Austrian Army.
Otto was created Count von Seefried auf Buttenheim on 10 January 1904 by Emperor Franz Joseph.
It was also reported that in 1910 Franz Joseph had created Otto a prince, although I have been unsuccessful in locating any supporting evidence of this creation

18.1523 Prince Georg of Bavaria 1880 1943 Archduchess Isabelle of Austria (Teschen Line) 1888 1973 See 44.327 - - The marriage of Archduchess Isabelle and Prince Georg was to lead to consternation within the respective families. They married on 10 February 1912 at the Schönbrunn Palace in the presence of Emperor Franz Joseph (grandfather to Prince Georg). Incompatibility lead to the couple quarrelling during their honeymoon period with Isabelle leaving Georg after just three days of Bavarian Court life. Attempts at reconciliation by the families were unsuccessful and their marriage was dissolved by the Bavarian Supreme Court on 17 January 1913.
Perhaps snubbing of Isabelle by the Bavarian Royal family also had a bearing on the quick dissolvement of their marriage.
It is interesting to note that the Pope also issued a decree to dissolve the marriage.
In 1919 Georg resigned his military career and began studying theology and was ordained a Catholic priest on 19 March 1921.

18.19113 Princess Maria de las Mercedes of Bavaria (Infanta of Spain) 1911 1953 Prince Irakly of Bagration-Mukhransky 1909 1977 Prince Irakly Bagration-Moukhransky is from one of the lines of the Bagration family who were former rulers of the Royal House of Georgia.
The situation regarding the Royal House of Georgia is somewhat complex and I profess not to understand it in any sort of detail. The Bagration family were Kings of Georgia from 1008 to 1466 which was then split into the three Kingdoms of Kartli, Imereti and Kakheti all under different offshoots of the Bagration family.
The first Duke of Mukhrani (i.e. Bagration of Mukhrani also known as Bagration-Moukhransky) was Bagrat (c1487 – c1540) son of Konstantine II (c1447 –1505) last King of united Georgia (1478-90) and first King of Kartli (1490-1505). It is from Bagrat that Prince Irakly is descended. The Kings of Kartli came from the Bagration of Mukhrani family line.
The Dukes of Mukhrani appear to me to have been transferred haphazardly between the different branches of Mukhrani descendants. On some occasions the Dukes of Mukhrani were also the Kings of Kartli.
The Kings of Kakheti came from another Branch of the Bagration family.
When Jesse the last King of Kartli died in 1727 the two Kingdoms of Kartli and Kakheti were merged recreating the Kingdom of Georgia, the Kingdom of Imereti remained independent. The last King of Georgia (Kingdom of Kartli and Kakheti) was George XII (1746-1800) whose male line descendant is Prince Nugzar Bagration-Gruzinsky of Georgia (born 25 August 1950) who claims the head of the Royal Family of Georgia.
The last Duke of Mukhrani was Konstantine IV who died in 1842 and Prince Irakly is his 2 x great grandson. In 1942 Prince Irakli who was of the genealogically senior branch of the Bagration dynasty, proclaimed himself Head of the Royal House of Georgia.
Prince Irakly's grandson (i.e. from his second marriage to Maria Antonietta Pasquini dei Conti di Costafiorita) is Prince David of Bagration-Moukhransky (born 1976) who married Princess Anna Bagration-Gruzinsky (born 1976) in 2009. Princess Anna is the daughter of Prince Nugzar Bagration-Gruzinsky (above), thus the marriage united the Gruzinsky (Kakheti) and Moukhransky (Mukhraneli) branches of the Georgian royal family.
Prince Irakly was a brother to Princess Leonida Bagration-Moukhransky
