"She got everything including what she deserved".....Brilliant turn of phrase! Love your work and your behind the scenes info on your subjects.

[@lorikill4645]

Loved it!

[@puddincup9879]

This woman was a hot mess! Her husband holding an annual funeral is beyond petty and hilarious!

[@dianemoril7612]

she probably had a narcissistic personality which means she probably did to him a loooooot more than what was left and known on the outside.

[@OsirisIxchel]

Born into the oldest noble families of France, the House of Rochechouart, Madame de Montespan was called by some the "true Queen of France"' during her romantic relationship with Louis XIV. Her "reign" lasted from around 1666 when she first danced with Louis XIV at a ball hosted by the king's younger brother, Philippe I, Duke of Orléans, till 1677. She is an ancestress of several royal houses in Europe, including those of Spain, Italy, Bulgaria, Portugal, Belgium and Luxembourg. The reign of Athenais de Montespan as principal mistress of Louis XIV corresponds with the most glorious period of the Grand Siecle. Athenais was 'the true Queen of France' and symbol of a dazzling French culture in the seventeenth century. As a lover, she risked the disgrace of double adultery but as a patron she supported many of the leaders of the cultural renaissance including Moliere and Racine. The greatest beauty of her day, Athenais lived her life publicly and unashamed. Louis himself never believed she was a poisoner. She fascinates not because she achieved power at a time when it was denied to most women, but because she achieved that power through manipulation of a prescribed role.

[@floralfancy7814]

Madame de Montespan was very pretty in her youth and when she was thin and very youthful for her time in her 50's. Its like she rose quickly and brilliantly then faded away into the background.

[@lisalanza8365]

After 7 child births

[@kikit9072]

She certainly was a schemer! Loved being able to see the other famous people of the time, too. Love this channel and keep the videos coming!

[@floralfancy7814]

I think she did feel bad for it though and tried to make up for it. At the end of her life she joined a convert donated a lot of money and helped the poor.

[@carolelanteigne9764]

Merci ! Madame de Montespan was a famous beauty and she had beautiful teeth ( extremely rare in those days ) She was reputed to be the most beautiful woman in Europe. Thank you so much ! Very well done :)

[@tonyawilliams9433]

I am captivated by your renderings of these historical figures. You really bring them to life! You have exceptional abilities. Thank you! (I would be interested in viewing your impressions of the people seated at "The Last Supper")

[@MoniqueangeliqueLumpkin]

A LOT LIKE D.C, THEY WERE UNTOUCHABLE, BUT THEY FELL. LOT TO LEARN FROM MONTESPAN. HO I AM FROM POITOU CHARENTES LIKE ATHENAIS. HUM!!!

[@CissyBrazil]

Your research is so complete and your technology skills astounding!

[@EIbereth]

What impresses me the most is that Madame de Montespan in her 30s looks exactly as Edith González, a ver famous Mexican actress that passed away some years ago.

[@historicaljolidda1497]

She really does!! You can tell by the eyes

[@depgabby]

ohh yeah she really does, down to the mouth shape

[@militzamadrid462]

[@CountessKitten]

Madame de Montespan is one of my favorites of all time. Athenais de Montespan beauty and charm was fabled to be one of the The Sun Kings strongest assets and part of the reason for his success and notoriety! Vive le Roi!

[@joas3324]

Are you mad?She was poisoning people...

[@MoniqueangeliqueLumpkin]

AS A FRANCO AMERICAINE MONTESPAN IS MY FAVORITE. I AM FROM POITOU CHARENTES REGION LIKE ATHENAIS MONTESPAN. XVII CENTURY VERSAILLES was TOTAL DEBAUCHERY, LEARN FROM IT. SOUND LIKE D.C HUM! EXCEPT THERE IS NO "l état c'est moi" .LOVE THE BAROQUE STYLE, ARTS, LITTERATURE LA FONTAINE.

[@Weeeewriter]

*She sounds like a female version of King Henry VIII...minus the killing of spouses though lol*

[@jinnel-masri2179]

Wait till you find out about the poison affair then

[@deborahnieling2315]

Louis build a very expensive bathroom with bathtub for her in Versailles, something that would be equivalent to a Yakuzi today! She was the only one who had something like that there! Very very interesting channel you build here!

[@CountessKitten]

She also had more rooms, or apartments, than the Queen! Maria Theresa, The Sun Kings Queen, had around 12, Athenais had over 20!

[@deborahnieling2315]

@@CountessKitten Yes the Mistress en titre where very powerful! A kings Mistress, that was a Statussymbol!

[@kamdav1892]

"Ainsi va la Cour : aujourd'hui, tout; demain, rien. " (So goes the Court: today, all ; tomorrow, nothing). It was her most famous saying, which well applied to her destiny indeed .

[@joelmolbert7023]

Really nice and interesting ! Mme de Montespan is probably the most interesting character of Louis the XIV life

[@serpentlaw5961]

Uncanny how scary this is. It is pleasant how reality does look nicer than the painting in some cases. We can get the glimpse of their emotions or the feeling of privilege they exude.

[@GGA44]

Very interesting! Can I suggest Queen Caroline of Brunswick and Princess Charlotte of Wales

[@tinadiesman5442]

I just found your channel. So glad I did. Love it!

[@kerriegood1046]

[@lilyofthevalley5586]

Thank you so much for this documentary!

[@vintagegal541]

Thank you! There is a current person in the British royal family that reminds me of Montespan. I won't name her since some people may like her. But, the scheming that goes on in royal circles is highly entertaining unless you are on the other end of their conniving.

superbe, louise de la valière a un air de douceur incroyable, montespan avant de rencontrer le roi est super jolie et encore toute douce, après on voit l'orgeuil, le carractère fort sur son visage, j'aime beaucoup henriette d'angleterre princesse si mal mariée, son portrait reconstitué est magnifique, madame de maintenon a beaucoup de charme..le roi a l'air d'une faune par contre..il faut dire qu'il a eu beaucoup de maîtresses..

Please do recreations of Agnes Sorel, the favorite mistress of French king Charles VII, and their three daughters: Charlotte, Marie, and Jeanne de Valois. Charlotte and her lover would be would be murdered by her jealous husband, Jacques de Breze. Their son, Louis would marry Diane de Poitiers, who, after being widowed, would become the mistress of King Henri II. What a bloodline!

What happened to the children of these mistresses?

She was a smart girl. She would do well in 9-5 jobs because this basically happens. She was silly to think the Queen was not a threat though

How did she get her children legitimized? She was very pretty in your depiction.

[@heliedecastanet1882]

It was not her who asked for legitimation. It was the king himself who decided to legitimate his children 🙂 I could explain how he legally did, but it is a long (yet surprising) story 🙂

[@doreenwyatt6409]

I love ❤️ love your videos they are totally awesome 👏 to see how these people looked like when you look at the painting 🖼 in art they don’t seem like real people that really lived they don’t seem real Until you do your talent and magic any turned them real life people and you realize that they have real lives and you learn so much about them and their lives and they are totally are real and had really interesting lives and when I watch Versailles I compare the real life information to what u learn from the show I wish the show was in-depth with all this true information about their real lives not just made for t v information we are being cheated on the real historical facts that really happened so thanks your channel and what you do is not only entertainment but small history lessons on the ( true facts) keep making your video their important and interesting o😲🤓🧐😘 and they make you think 💭 🤔🤗

[@isaiasramosgarcia9771]

se paso de lista con el asunto de los venenos

[@gwendolyn7462]

I do not think this is an ah ha piece; Montespan took the love of the King from other women that she EVENTUALLY turned into herself. And thus the circle of life continues. Her greatest accomplishments though were her 9 children. It is also impressive none of them died in childhood, being the 1600s

[@micheleparker8553]

Royal children were not exposed to other people very much in infancy and early childhood. This greatly reduced their exposure to diseases. If they survived these early years, then they had better chances to live to adulthood when they were bigger and stronger to fight off germs.

[@Menuet44]

Cette femme..une Cattin....Intelligente, ambitieuse, certes, mais orgueilleuse , jalouse et mauvaise conseillère. Elle a créé de nombreuses intrigues..a couvé nombre de rejetons..sans jamais s’en occuper...raison pour laquelle je l’appelle Cattin..

[@heliedecastanet1882]

À ce compte, toutes les femmes de cette époque étaient des catins, puisqu'elles ne choisissaient par leurs maris, puisqu'elles devaient coucher avec eux sans en avoir envie le plus souvent, et ne vivaient que par l'argent que l'homme qu'elles avaient épousé voulait bien leur donner… Vous voyez beaucoup de différence entre une femme mariée de l'époque et une prostituée ? Non. Karl Marx disait du mariage, à cette époque, qu'il était de la prostitution légale. Il avait assez raison 🙂

[@kimskis]

well, if that's indeed how she looked like back then, she was quite a looker for that gloomy time period of rotten teeth and bad skin lol
