After the death of Maximilian de Beauharnais, his descendants by Grand Duchess Maria Nikolayevna inherited the Beauharnais families claims to the Italian throne, and also became distant relation of the Russian Romanov Imperial Family, bearing the extra title Prince Romanovsky or Princess Romanovskaja. After Nicolas I Maximilianovich de Beauharnais's death the titles: Duke of Leuchtenberg passed to his brothers, since his own descendants were morganatic diqualifying them from being his successor. But it isn't known who inherited the family's claims on the Napoleonic Kingdom of Italy and the Grand Duchy of Frankfurt. It was either Nicolas morganatic descendants or his royal brothers and nephews; but in the end the latter branch died out and current heir of the morganatic branch is the heir to Beauharnais.
