Through his oldest son Friedrich Franz III he is the grandfather of:

His oldest daughter Marie:

Olga => married to Paul regent of Yugoslavia
Elisabeth married into a German dynasty
Marina => married to the Duke of Kent
His younger daughter Elisabeth became Duchess of Oldenburg
His youngest son Henry became prince of the Netherlands and fathered Queen Juliana of the Netherlands.
We are aware that several royal houses in Europe had great influences with other royal houses or courts. The Coburgs and the royal dynasty of Denmark being among them. I understand that King Nicholas of Montenegro did as well. His relations were spread far and wide across the map of Europe? A daughter was a queen consort?
