thestuartkings: Princess Henrietta Anne Stuart, Duchess of Orléans, known as ‘Madame’ in france where she lived with her husband Phillippe, brother of Louis XIV, and affectionately named ‘Minette’ by her older brother King Charles II of England. Charles and Minette were particularly close. On her death, he had an uncharacteristic outburst of emotion and accused her husband of poisoning her, saying that “Monsieur is a villain!” He then refused to leave his rooms for several days.
