Victor Emmanuel, Prince of Naples

Victor Emmanuel, prince of Naples (Vittorio Emanuele Alberto Carlo Teodoro Umberto Bonifacio Amedeo Damiano Bernardino Gennaro Maria de Savoie), born February 12, 1937) is the head of the house of Savoy. He is known to Italian monarchists as Vittorio Emanuele IV. He lived for most of his life in exile, following the referendum that made Italy a republic. He is not very highly regarded in Italy or abroad, because of a series of blunders, anti-semitic remarks, and even a murder charge.
