History, personal circumstances and destiny come together and weave the story of Princess Bathilde d'Orléans. “Remember, we were not brought into this world to be happy!” - she said to a friend who was going through difficult times. When she expressed those fateful words, Princess Bathilde was still very young, not suspecting what life had in store for her.
