There are several people in the world today, perhaps dozens, who claim to be a descendant of the last King of France, or who otherwise claim a right to inherit the title. There are various institutions and societies established to support one or more of the various claims. Some, of course, are spurious, but others seem to have at least an air of legitimacy.

Officially, Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette. They were the last real King and Queen of France.

It was purely a title and they had no real reigning power. The last king and queen of that constitutional monarchy were Louis Philippe I and Maria Amalia (Marie Antoinette's niece).
