Life
Prince Giuseppe was born as the third but second surviving son of
Princess Maria Pia of Bourbon-Two Sicilies. Like his older brother and predecessor, Enrico, he had an intellectual disability[citation needed
] and was the titular pretender of Parma from 1939 until 1950.
His younger brother and successor,
Elias
, took up the role as head of the family in 1907 and acted as regent, although Giuseppe continued to be considered by monarchists as Joseph I of Parma. Giuseppe died unmarried and without issue and was succeeded as titular pretender of Parma by his brother Elias upon his death in 1950.
