Issue: Three children—Crown Prince Lorenzo Vittorio, Prince Raffaele Amadeo, and Princess Giulia Elisabetta Rinaldi
Residence: Primarily resides in Palazzo Reale while overseeing royal estates and vineyards across Tartosa

Personality: Frederico is a pragmatic and forward-thinking monarch, deeply committed to modernizing Tartosa’s monarchy. His progressive visions include transitioning to absolute primogeniture and empowering royal women with independent roles in philanthropy. Yet despite his modern policies, Frederico retains a streak of old-world masculinity—he’s charming, confident, and occasionally flirtatious, with a sense of humor that disarms even the most skeptical diplomat. His desire to expand the royal family beyond their three children has become a quiet point of tension, especially as Queen Zoe has long felt their family is complete.
Legacy and Role: Frederico ascended the throne following King Gaetano’s death several years ago, marking a generational shift in leadership. Though he often clashed with his father’s rigid traditionalism, Frederico carries forward Gaetano’s legacy with a blend of reverence and reform. However, within the palace, his vision sometimes collides with Zoe’s more fluid, cosmopolitan ideals—particularly when she returns from Del Sol Valley, reminded of the freedom she once knew. These subtle fractures in their marriage have not gone unnoticed, and while the public sees a united front, whispers of strain—and temptation—linger beneath the surface.

Appearance: Francesca’s dark brown hair and striking warm blue eyes reflect her mother’s grace and elegance, while her poised and confident demeanor captures her independence.
Personality: Sophisticated and diplomatic, Francesca excels in her role as a royal representative, navigating political and social circles with effortless charm. However, her marriage to Niccolò Auditore showcased her rebellious streak and fierce determination. Niccolò’s background as a wealthy descendant of a centuries-old financial and vineyard family initially caused King Gaetano to disapprove of the union, deeming it unsuitable for his daughter.
Determined to be with Niccolò, Francesca made the bold decision to run away with him, disappearing for over a year. During this time, she remained in secret contact with her cousin, Princess Victoria, who offered discreet support. When Francesca and Niccolò returned, married and with Francesca visibly pregnant, King Gaetano’s options were limited. The pregnancy prevented him from annulling the union, and King Maximilian’s diplomatic intervention convinced Gaetano to accept the situation. Begrudgingly, Gaetano elevated Niccolò to nobility and allowed them a grand stately wedding.
Now, Francesca and Niccolò run the largest vineyard in Tartosa, blending royal influence with entrepreneurial expertise to elevate Tartosa’s wine reputation.

Francesca’s ability to seamlessly combine her royal duties with her role as a businesswoman has earned her widespread admiration.
