In 1925, Carol was pressured to renounce his rights (in favour of his son Michael) to the throne and moved to <a href="/wiki/Paris" title="Paris">Paris</a> in exile with Lupescu. In July 1927, following the death of his grandfather <a href="/wiki/Ferdinand_I_of_Romania" title="Ferdinand I of Romania">Ferdinand I</a>, Michael ascended the throne at age five, the youngest crowned head in Europe.<sup id="cite_ref-Grdn_1-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Grdn-1"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>1<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> As Michael was still a minor, a regency council was instituted, composed of his uncle <a href="/wiki/Prince_Nicholas_of_Romania" title="Prince Nicholas of Romania">Prince Nicolas</a>, Patriarch <a href="/wiki/Miron_Cristea" class="mw-redirect" title="Miron Cristea">Miron Cristea</a> and Chief Justice <a href="/wiki/Gheorghe_Buzdugan" title="Gheorghe Buzdugan">Gheorghe Buzdugan</a>.

Shortly thereafter, on the morning of 30 December 1947, Groza met with Michael and compelled him to abdicate, while the monarchy was abolished.
