I understand that this led to a lot of tension in the House of Savoy, with the Duchess of Aosta (frustrated in her previous ambitions to obtain crowns) creating a rival royal court. She has been characterized as "arrogant and affected, behaving as though she were the real sovereign of Italy", spending years trying to get her clutches on the Italian throne.
Forgive me if this question has been previously raised.
