I know that King Felipe V of Spain is the only Catholic descendant of Britain's Queen Victoria who is a reigning monarch today. I was wondering about other Catholic descendants of QV who are heads of non-reigning houses. The only one I can think of, off the top of my head, is Karl Friedrich, the present-day head of the princely house of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen. Are there any others?
If one were to expand the list to include additional Catholic descendants of King George II, there are the Benelux sovereigns -- King Philippe of the Belgians and Grand Duke Henri of Luxembourg. As for non-reigning heads of Catholic houses, it would include Archduke Karl of Austria, the two rival claimants of Bourbon-Two Sicilies, and Duke Carl of Württemberg. Are there any others?
