Line 25:
When Ludwig's parents were married in 1979, their marriage did not conform with the laws of the [[House of Wittelsbach]]. Ludwig was born with the surname ''Prinz von Bayern'', but was actually not officially recognised as a prince by the royal house - although he was frequently styled as if he were. On [[March 3]], [[1999]], the laws of the House of Wittelsbach were changed, the marriage of Ludwig's parents was recognised as dynastic, and Ludwig was officially recognised as a ''Prince of Bavaria'' by the royal house.
 
Ludwig is presently fourth in line of succession to be head of the house of Wittelsbach - after [[Prince Max, Duke in Bavaria]] (younger brother of the current head [[Franz, Duke of Bavaria]]), Ludwig's grandfather Ludwig, and Ludwig's father Luitpold).
 
As a great-great-grandson of [[Archduchess Maria Theresia of Austria-Este]], Ludwig is also in line of succession to the [[Jacobitism|Jacobite]] thrones of England, Scotland, France and Ireland.
