Through her marriage toPhilippe, Duke of Orléans, Maria Dorothea was also a member of theHouse of Orléans. Philippe was theOrléanist claimant to the throne ofFrance from 1894 to 1926 and known to Orléanist monarchists as "Philippe VIII of France." Thus, to Orléanist monarchists, Maria Dorothea was titularQueen of France from 1896 to 1926, and Dowager Queen of France until her death in 1932.

Maria Dorothea was the second-eldest daughter and child ofArchduke Joseph Karl of Austria and his wifePrincess Clotilde of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. Through her father Joseph Karl, Maria Dorothea was the great-granddaughter ofLeopold II, Holy Roman Emperor. Through her mother, she was a great-granddaughter ofLouis Philippe I.

Maria Dorothea married her second cousin,Philippe, Duke of Orléans, eldest son ofPhilippe, Count of Paris and his wifePrincess Marie Isabelle of Orléans, on 5 November 1896 inVienna.

After several years of marriage, the couple's marriage deteriorated and Maria Dorothea began to spend more and more time each year at her family's estate,Alcsút Palace. Nevertheless, in 1906, Philippe attempted to reconnect with his wife and went to Alcsút to convince her to settle with him at theManoir d'Anjou nearBrussels. Maria Dorothea resisted the living arrangement and remained at Alcsút.
