You've presented the best historical telling of Louis & Marie Antoinette's children, I've ever seen. History to often focuses on the King & Queen, yet skims over almost all these forgotten lives. You've excelled yourself once again. I'll be re-watching this one, it has images I've not seen before. I'll also be re-listening again, as it has facts I'd not known of.
Note that even when the palace was stormed and Marie Antoinette rightly feared for her life and the life of her children, she also kept Charlotte safe. She could have just dumped her and paid attention to her biological children or even rejected her because she had come from commoners. But she treated her the same as her own daughter. That says a lot about Marie Antoinette
Stop believing British propaganda against the revolution and Napoleon. They worship the royals who shit all over their people while bashing the people for finally taking back their freedom and sovereignty
The most saddest and tragic Story. Thank you for great research. Spotless narration!
She was advised, long before they were captured and send to Paris, to get out of France and flee to Austria. She refused, didn't even want to send her children, although it was normal to get the heirs to the throne to a safe place during riots or unrest.
Louis Charles suffered terribly from abuse and neglect while imprisoned. There’s a book about him that reveals horrible things that occurred while the royal family was imprisoned. Louis Charles being a little boy and not fully understanding the situation, was initially fascinated by the guards. Some took his interest and cultivated a relationship with him. They were able to take mundane family events like bath time and bed time of the family in cramped rooms under constant guard and turn it into stories of Marie molesting the young Dauphin. None of it was true but the guards had completely isolated Louis Charles from his family and coerced him testify that she abused him. The lies help cement Marie’s execution. It was heartbreaking to have her beloved son accuse her of vile acts that none of the ever present guards could verify or disprove. After his parents death, the guards began to neglect him barely feeding him, leaving him in dark isolation for long periods of time and the worst guards physically & sexually abused him. Within a couple years, he was completely nonverbal and behaved in feral manner. He was neglected to death and autopsy showed much of abuse of the abuse he endured. His sister was seen as far less of a threat being a Dauphine with no money and unable to inherit the throne. I was shocked to,earn of his horrible mistreatment while reading the book The Lost King of France: A Story of Revolution, Revenge and DNA by Deborah Cadbury. The book also explores how DNA fr9m the urn holding his heart was used to verify that the boy who died in the prison was in fact the Dauphin and not an imposter as some people had believed.
Hello again Forgotten Lives. It was unfortunate enough Marie Antoinette being beheaded. It's sad that her family didn't fair much better in their own lives.
Such an incredible video! Thanks for all your efforts!
your research is solid, skill in presenting detailed is clear, making this period better understood/appreciated
Excellent collection of fascinating characters. Well done! 👍
Thanks as always ❤
Thank you so much for researching this & bringing it to us. Love from Australia ❤
Thank you. Enjoyed.
Thank you so much for the amazing upload, it was really interesting hearing what happened to the other relatives even though it was still very tragic, but your presentation and knowledge was amazing, keep up the awesome work as always 😊
Thank you for the education.
Such a sad fate.
Amazing deep dive into such a sad story.
These are so interesting. Thank you
They should have all fled France, before it was too late. They had plenty of Family abroad.
There could have been a very good reason that Mary Antoinette didn't do anything for the younger brother of Ernestine. The family might want to keep a son to carry on their own traditions and name.
Thank you for an excellent history lesson
very fresh topic
excellent!
Its so sad what those Jacobins did then and what they are doing to us now
Heartbreaking
I read a book entitled 1848 it was quite informative.
Another absorbing and well told presentation! I can't help but wonder about the prince who died before he was 21 (section starting around @50:20) of some s**ually transmitted disease. I am clinically curious. Was it a particularly virulent form of the British Pox (known in Britain as the French Pox😆)? Was it congenital? What moves that fast???
Marie Therese was Madame Royale which was the title for the eldest daughter of the French Monarch. King Charles the first liked the title and adapted it to the Royal Family in Britain. His daughter Princess Mary of Orange was the first holder of the title Princess Royal. Today of course, its held by HRH Anne Princess Royal.
Marie was beautiful & good.
Excellent video as always. But I have to correct to pronunciation of Slovenia. It's not Slovenia with a long e but Slovenia with a long A. So the v e n is pronounced as the English word "vein."
Didn’t Madame Royale live outside London? What was she doing up in Edinburgh?
Thank you ❤ that generation was sorrly ridiculed
What’s Nick’s other channel?
Unfortunate ends!
@@andycortes2380 thank you 🙏
Just like Czar Nicholas and family, they completely ignored the will of the people and them basically starving to death, while the king n queen and Czar and co. just kept spending and spending and spending. Either way is wasnt going to end well..
I am a bit worried when you said Marie Antoinette's former lover. Yes that was the rumors at the time and some historians think they were but it is not a settled thing amongst historians at all. You really should have used the word alleged or not used it at all because this story is about Charlotte and Ernestine and the children and not Marie Antoinette.
@1:44--Lewy sholls? 😂 Lmfao😂
Mkay , ⅔
Show yourself !! Your introduction is what built this following. Part is because you are unique, and beautiful.
Most is because you are sincere. We want to believe what YOU present ! ! !
I'm in Diamondhead Mississippi, USA on the Gulf of Mexico. I would like to meet you on my next trip to London.
. . . . you did show yourself ! ! ! I am happy ! !
There was a rumor that persists in NE PA that the Dauphin had been hidden as a French peasant immigrant among the small French enclave there.
Why was painting young women with grey hair so popular then?
In that time wigs were powdered, appearing whitish.
Also legend has it Marie Antoinette's hair turned white before her execution.
Wigs were a popular thing back then
@@brandyjean7015 absolutely! The powder also prevented lice aswell
@@evans.7501and often scented in an attempt to overcome the odor of an unwashed wig, usually crafted from animal hair.
Same reason we unfortunately see so many teenagers and young ladies on insta with grey hair. It was popular and history is repeating itself.
Realistically , would only take 2 consecutive global crop failures to destabilize the world economy.
