Was he already dating her by the time Irakli wanted to marry Maria de las Mercedes ?
BTW not all the Romanov family accepted the Wladimir-Leonida marriage as equal, but then Wladimir was the (disputed) head of the family and he decided it was equal.

Yes, it was. The Count of Barcelona consulted with Grand Duke Wladimir, who confirmed the Bragations were royal. Well, if not, his marriage would not be dynastic, either Previous Message
Was his marriage in 1946 to Infanta María de las Mercedes of Spain (1911–1953) a dynastic one, from the Spanish standpoint? Who was consulted, as to whether a Bourbon and Bagration were *equals*? Whose consent was sought, for the union?
