It seems that none of her stepchildren were there, though some relatives of her husband did show up, including prince Michel and Princess Chantal.
If you go to the post 244 pic no 14 of the gallery is her son Alexis BoeufWhich in the assistance is Micaëla's son ?

Several items of the late Pss Micaela are going to be autioned in France:

Among the pieces art there is also the small tiara of the Orleans family. It was worn by Pss Anne when she married the future duke of Calabria. The late countess [Micaela] of Paris wore it for her religious wedding in 2009, but attached to a ribbon and as a necklace.
I agree. The redesign was very unsuccessful and butchered the piece.It was also masssacred by removing quiet a lot of diamonds on both sides.
Never liked it as necklace.
Wonder who is selling these- The necklace/tiara should be inherited by the Comte de Paris as it comes originally from his grandmother.

So it seems she inherited it all from her husband and now her son inherited it from her. Wonder if the Counts children also got a share. But no Idea how that works in France.As it is Micaela's estate it must be her heir(s), which most likely will be her son Alexis.
We have had many auctions of the Orléans family these last decades so it is surprising to see that there is anything left.

?So you know the Orleans I presume ?
She was treated dismissively by the current count of Paris, [...]
I think it is clear that the late count Henri (jr) and countess Micaela are not burried together. Neither did Prince Jean attend any of the funeral services for his stepmother - or the wedding in 2009. Though he seems to have a penchant for preaching, the count seems to have difficulties in practicing christian virtues such as compassion and forgiveness in his daily life.

and in death her and her husband's wishes for their bodies were ignored in a quite disgusting manner.
I hope whoever is selling doesn't give a single fig what Jean or his family want.
If Count Jean ignored his father and stepmother's wishes for their burial without a compelling reason (what reason did he provide?), then naturally that was disrespectful to them both. However, I can't see why his grandmother and his family, who I assume had nothing to do with it, should have their wishes for their property ignored as a result.
