Luiz II (Luiz Pedro Felipe Maria Gabriel) (born February 21, 1983) is the current ruling Emperor of Brazil. He is the second son of Emperor Pedro IV and his wife, Empress Maria. Alongside his role, he is also the head of the Imperial Family of Brazil. He assumed the throne of Brazil in 2010 following the abdication of his brother.
He is also known for expressing hard-right views and opposition to homosexuality. Supporters have claimed he has been instrumental in restoring the moral integrity of Brazil, whilst critics have accused him of overstepping his constitutional role and making inappropriate political interventions.
Early life
Reign
Racist comments, controversies and far-right politics
Integralism
Luiz II has spoken positively of the prime ministry of Plínio Salgado, declaring that "a few decades of him and women would have remained in the kitchen."
Matthew McConaughey
In 2012, Luiz II issued a royal decree ordering the arrest and execution of Texan Governor Matthew McConaughey. The decree was later annulled in a near-unanimous vote by Parliament. Foreign observers have speculated this is due to an alleged affair McConaughey has had with Luiz II's wife in 2006.
Homosexuality
In a June 2011 interview with Playboy magazine, Luiz II said, "Brazil is incapable of having a gay King", and added if his heir apparent was gay, he would "disinherit him and bar him from the succession". In the same interview, he said that any LGBT rights activists that protested his rule "would be beaten by the Royal Guard."
Misogyny
Luiz II believes that "feminism is a cancer that will destroy Brazilian society and turn my daughter into a man." A leaked insider report has indicated that these remarks have caused Isabel Maria to estrange herself from her father.
COVID-19
Luiz II believes that the ongoing coronavirus pandemic is a "communist conspiracy by Japs and faggots." This has put him at odds with his wife, Camila Alves, who has advocated for face masks to be worn throughout Brazil.
