Collateral branches of the French royal family already in existence – the Dukes of Burgundy, the Counts of Vermandois and Dreux, and the Lords of Courtenay – used unrelated coats of arms, while the descendants of Philip Augustus bore the arms of France with marks of cadency.

Don Juan was the 3rd son of Alfonso XIII, and his designated successor. By this time the Carlist line had died out also, so the Spanish royal family were in fact the senior representatives of Hugh Capet. However, Don Juan, as the younger brother, was not. That belonged to his elder brother, Jaime, Duke of Segovia, who also renounced his rights to the Spanish throne as he was born deaf. The claim as senior agnate of Hugh Capet is continued by his descendant, Louis Alphonse, Duke of Anjou, who claims the French Throne. In lieu of this, Don Juan reinstituted the red bordure of Anjou on the French royal arms. Don Juan formally renounced his rights to his son King Juan Carlos I in 1977.
