    He became the adopted son with the title of Prince of Iturbide, along with his cousin Salvador de Iturbide y de Marzán, of Mexico's only other royal heads of state, Emperor Maximilian I of Mexico and Empress Carlota of Mexico. After the death of Emperor Maximilian in 1867, he became the head of the Imperial House of Mexico, but he had no children. His claims passed to Maria Josepha Sophia de Iturbide, the daughter of his cousin, Salvador.
