Prince Gabriele of Bourbon-Two Sicilies (Gabriele Maria Giuseppe Carlo Ignazio Antonio Alfonso Pietro Giovanni Gerardo di Majella et Omni Sancti; 11 January 1897, Cannes, France – 22 October 1975, Itu, Brazil,) was a prince of the deposed dynasty which ruled the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. Family Gabriel was the twelfth child and youngest son of Prince Alfonso, Count of Caserta, and his wife, Princess Maria Antonietta of Bourbon-Two Sicilies. Nicknamed Onga within his family circle, he grew up having little contact with either of the two elder brothers, Carlo (1870-1949) and Ranieri (1883-1973), whose rival claims for headship of the family and its dynastic orders "would rend loyalties the House of Bourbon-Sicily asunder into the 21st century".<ref name="cannes">{{cite book|author1= McIntosh, David |author2=Beéche, Arturo E.|title= Royal Exiles in Cannes|year = 2015|publisher=Eurohistory|location= East Richmond Heights, California |pages= 109, 168, 170, 173–174, 181, 183, 185|isbn=978-0-9854603-8-9}}</ref> Marriage and issue Gabriel married firstly Princess Malgorzata Izabella Czartoryska, daughter of Prince Adam Ludwik Czartoryski and his wife Countess Maria Ludwika Krasińska, on 25 August 1927 in Paris.
