'''Prince David Bagrationi Mukhrani (''Mukran-Batoni'' [{{lang|ka|მუხრანბატონი}}]) of Georgia''', ''David Bagration de Moukhrani y Zornoza'', or ''Davit Bagrationi-Mukhraneli'' ({{lang-ka|დავით ბაგრატიონ-მუხრანელი}}; born 24 June 1976), is the Head of the [[House of Mukhrani|Princely House of Mukhrani]], a branch of the [[Georgia (country)|Georgian]] [[Bagrationi dynasty]] and claims by [[primogeniture]] the headship of the [[Bagrationi dynasty|Royal House of Bagrationi]], which reigned in Georgia from the medieval era until the early 19th century.<ref name = misha>{{Cite web |last=Vignanski |first=Misha |date=2 August 2009 |title=Primera boda real en dos siglos reagrupa dos ramas de la dinastía Bagration |work=el confidencial |location= Tiflis, Spain |language=es |url=http://www.elconfidencial.com/cache/2009/02/08/93_primera_siglos_reagrupa_ramas_dinastia_bagration.html# |access-date=2 September 2009}}</ref>

His family is related to the [[House of Bourbon-Anjou]], the [[House of Wittelsbach]], the [[House of Habsburg-Lorraine]], and the [[House of Romanov]]. Prince Davit succeeded his father [[Jorge Bagration of Mukhrani|Prince Giorgi (Jorge) Bagration Mukhrani]] as claimant to the [[List of monarchs of Georgia|Georgian throne]] upon his death on 16 January 2008.

Prince Davit returned his family to Georgia in 2003, ending decades of exile resulting from the 1921 [[Red Army invasion of Georgia]]. He married Princess [[Ana Bagration-Gruzinsky]], a member of the genealogically junior [[Gruzinsky]] branch of the Bagrationi, in 2009, divorcing in 2013. Their son [[Giorgi Bagrationi (born 2011)|Prince Giorgi]], born in Georgia in 2011 as the Pretender Crown Prince of the Mukhraneli also became Pretender Crown Prince of the Gruzinsky branch in 2025, after his maternal grandfather [[Nugzar Bagration-Gruzinsky]] died and Ana became Pretender Queen of the Gruzinsky branch, due to its extinction in the male line.

==Early life==
Bagrationi was born to the Georgian ''émigré'' family as the second son of Spanish race car driver, [[Jorge Bagration of Mukhrani|Prince George Bagrationi-Mukhraneli]], by his first wife María de las Mercedes Zornoza y Ponce de León (1942–2020) in [[Madrid]], Spain. He has an older sister, Maria-Antonietta, and brother, Irakly, and a younger half-brother, Gourami (Ugo).<ref name="burke">{{cite book|author=Montgomery-Massingberd, Hugh|year=1980|title=Burke's Royal Families of the World: ''Volume II Africa & the Middle East''|pages=59, 61–62, 64–65, 67–68|isbn=0-85011-029-7|author-link=Hugh Montgomery-Massingberd|title-link=Burke's Peerage}}</ref> Bagrationi is also a cousin of [[Grand Duchess Maria Vladimirovna of Russia]], head of the [[Russian Imperial House]], as her mother was born [[Grand Duchess Leonida Georgievna of Russia|Princess Leonida Bagration of Mukhrani]].<ref name=petit/>

==Dynastic activities==
Bagrationi settled permanently in Georgia's capital of [[Tbilisi]] in 2003 and obtained dual citizenship from Georgia in 2004.

During the [[Russo-Georgian War|Russia–Georgia war]] over [[South Ossetia]] in August 2008, Bagrationi accompanied [[Military of Georgia (country)|Georgian soldiers]] to the front-line to render moral support.

==Marriage and divorce==
[[File:Bagration1.jpg|right|thumb|200px|　Wedding Ceremony, Holy Trinity Cathedral of Tbilisi]]
[[File:Bagration2.jpg|right|thumb|200px|　Wedding Ceremony, Holy Trinity Cathedral of Tbilisi]]
Prince David Bagration of Mukhrani married [[Ana Bagration-Gruzinsky|Princess Ana Bagration-Gruzinsky]] on 8 February 2009 at the [[Holy Trinity Cathedral of Tbilisi|Tbilisi Sameba Cathedral]].<ref name=wedding/> This marriage had come to fruition with the support and blessing by the pro-monarchist Catholicos Patriarch of the Georgian Orthodox Church, [[Ilia II]], and was officiated by two Bishops Metropolitan, Theodore and Gerasimos. This marriage united the two branches of the Georgian former [[royal family]] with competing claims to the rights to the throne of Georgia – those of [[Gruzinsky]] and of Mukhrani – and drew a crowd of 3,000 spectators, officials, and foreign diplomats, as well as extensive coverage by the [[Georgian media]].<ref name = misha/><ref name = wedding/>

The dynastic significance of the wedding lay in the fact that, amid the [[Politics of Georgia (country)#Recent developments|turmoil in political partisanship]] that has roiled Georgia since its independence in 1991, Patriarch [[Ilia II]] of Georgia publicly called for restoration of the monarchy as a path toward national unity in October 2007.<ref name = eurasianet>{{cite web|url=http://www.eurasianet.org/departments/insight/articles/eav101207a.shtml|title=Time for a King for Georgia?}}</ref> Without naming any preferred claimant, prior to Prince David and Princess Ana's wedding, Patriarch Ilia II had emphasized the need to prepare the populace for restoration of the monarchy, "and elect a Bagration, to be educated from childhood" to take the crown.<ref name=misha/> Although this led some politicians and parties to entertain the notion of a Georgian [[constitutional monarchy]], competition arose among the old dynasty's princes and supporters, as historians and [[jurisprudence|jurists]] debated which Bagrationi has the strongest hereditary right to a throne that has been vacant since the 1800s.<ref name="misha"/> Although some [[Monarchism in Georgia|Georgian monarchists]] support the Gruzinsky branch's claim, others support that of the [[repatriation|repatriated]] Mukhrani branch.<ref name = eurasianet/> Both branches descend in unbroken, legitimate male line from the medieval kings of Georgia down to [[Constantine II of Georgia|King Constantine II of Georgia]] who died in 1505.

Whereas the Bagration-Mukhrani (Bagrationi-Mukhraneli) was a [[cadet branch]] of the former [[Kingdom of Kartli|Royal House of Kartli]], it became the [[genealogy|genealogically]] senior line of the Bagrationi dynasty in the early 20th century:<ref name="burke"/> yet the elder branch had lost the kingship of Kartli by 1724.<ref name="burke"/>

Meanwhile, the Bagration-Gruzinsky line, although junior to the Mukhrani genealogically,<ref name="burke"/> reigned over the [[kingdom of Kakheti]], re-united the two eastern Georgian realms in the kingdom of [[Kartli-Kakheti]] in 1762, and did not lose sovereignty until Russian annexation in 1801.<ref name="wedding"/>

Bagrationi is the only member of his branch who retains Georgian citizenship and residence since the death of his father in 2008.<ref name = wedding/> Aside from his unmarried elder brother, he is senior in male-line descent of the [[Bagrationi dynasty|Bagration family]],<ref name="petit">de Badts de Cugnac, Chantal. Coutant de Saisseval, Guy. ‘'Le Petit Gotha'’. Nouvelle Imprimerie Laballery, Paris 2002, pp. 483–485, 798 (French) {{ISBN|2-9507974-3-1}}</ref> while Ana's father, [[Nugzar Bagration-Gruzinsky|Prince Nugzar Bagration-Gruzinsky]], is the only remaining prince who descends in male line [[George XII of Georgia|George XII]], the last king to reign over the united Kartli and Kakheti kingdom.<ref name="burke"/> The marriage between Nugzar Gruzinsky's heiress and the Mukhrani heir potentially resolves their rivalry for the claim to the throne, which had divided Georgian monarchists:<ref name = wedding/>

There had been reports of marital discord since April 2009. In December 2009, in a Georgian version of ''[[The Moment of Truth (U.S. game show)|The Moment of Truth]]'' on [[Imedi TV]] the Georgian actress [[Shorena Begashvili]] admitted to having an affair with Bagrationi.<ref name=imedi/> Georgian Interior Minister [[Vano Merabishvili]] alleged in an interview published by Russian newspaper ''Kommersant'' on 7 April 2010 that their marital union had been arranged with the primary purpose of promoting the restoration of the Georgian monarchy under the Bagrationi. Therefore, according to Merabishvili, Anna Bagration-Gruzinsky was forced to divorce her first husband, Grigol Malania, in order to allow her to wed Bagrationi.{{clarify|date=January 2016}} At that time Merabishvili claimed that the Bagrationi couple were no longer married.<ref name="trend1">{{cite web|url=http://en.trend.az/news/politics/foreign/1664948.html|title=Georgia's Interior Minister: Revival of Bagrationi Dynasty in Georgia is Primakov's project |date=15 April 2010 }}</ref><ref name="civil1">{{cite web|url=http://www.civil.ge/eng/article.php?id=22157|title=Merabishvili on Elections, Opposition, Russia, Ukraine |date=15 April 2010 }}</ref> However it was rumoured by the Georgian press that the couple had reconciled and was expecting their first child.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.ptpress.ge/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=2077%3Abagrationebi&catid=3%3A0103sazogadoeba&Itemid=3|title="სამეფო კარზე" მემკვიდრეს ელოდებიან|trans-title=Royal court successor is expected|language=ka}}</ref>

The couple are said to have retaken their marital vows in a civil ceremony on 12 November 2010 in Madrid.

The couple's only child, a son, [[Giorgi Bagrationi (born 2011)|Giorgi]], was born in Madrid on 27 September 2011 and baptized by Patriarch Ilia II at the [[Svetitskhoveli Cathedral]] in [[Mtskheta]] on 3 November 2013.

Following Prince Nugzar's death in 2025, David's former wife Ana became his rival Pretender due to the Gruzinsky branch going extinct in the male line. Their son Prince Giorgi subsequently became Heir Apparent to both of his parents, which makes the ultimate reconciliation of the rival claims almost certain, since he can only be displaced from either succession by his death.
