## Bio

Born Ferdinand August Franz Anton Koháry von Sachsen-Coburg-Gotha on 29 October 1816, he married Queen Maria II of Portugal and under Portuguese law became king only after their first son, Prince Pedro, arrived in 1837. He co-ruled with Maria II until her death on 15 November 1853, at which point his kingship technically ended — though he kept the title and served as regent for their son Pedro V until 1855. He lived three decades longer, dying 15 December 1885, a king-father watching his sons Pedro V and then Luís I take the throne he'd once shared.
