Donna Maria Maddalena Capece Galeota (11 December 1859 – 6 April 1933) was an early 20th-century Italian noblewoman. From the death of her father Carlo Capece Galeota in 1908 to her own death in 1933, she held various titles, most prominently the traditional family title of the Capece Galeota family, Duchess of Regina. She was the last to hold the Neapolitan title of Princess (Prince) of Achaea, a title created for her ancestor Antonio Tocco in 1642, to honour his female line descent from the rulers of the Principality of Achaea.[2]
