Marie Antoinete and Louis the 16th’s sex life had
been in constant scrutiny for 8 years when Marie Antoinette finally announced she was pregnant
gossip and satirical pamphlets were circulated of all the possible fathers it could be Marie
would like many before her have to give birth in public in order to make sure that there were no
substitutions made a boy for a girl or a living baby for one that might have passed away when
Marie finally went into labor a bell was rung and all pandemonium broke loose crowds rushed to rooms
that were as close as they could possibly get some onlookers even breaking into the inner rooms to
get a bird’s eye view Marie labored for 12 hours her first chambermaid wrote of the event “the
etiquette allowing all persons indiscriminately…”

This is NOT true at all.
I always feel sorry for Marie – what a terrible way to die
Where is that
They were getting live view of the event.
How sick
I've been to Versailles Palace, it's incrediblly beautiful!, it takes days to cover the whole property, it is definitely worth the visit. Give it at least one full day…..
BLESSINGS.
This is appalling to say the least.
Antoinette was treated far worse than history says. There were gossip pamphlets called Libelles that spilled rumors and could sway public opinion pretty easily, because people were idiots. But these Libelles were not just common gossip, they were really disturbing and gross rumors spread about the queen, even adding drawings sometimes. They said:
– The Queen constantly overspent and cared more about her dresses than France
– She had an affair with her brother-in-law
– She poisoned her daughter Sophie, who had died as an infant
and, probably worst of all these lies was:
– She SA'd her 8 year old son by teaching him to do inappropriate adult things with himself
None of these lies were true and were just made because people hate queens so much, especially Antoinette I guess. this poor woman and her kids, my goodness…
How uncomfortable the feeling was😮
There home is so lavish
Man, humans are weird. Sometimes, I feel like an alien trapped among other aliens
No pressure tho
Whoa… Opulence…
How awful and intrusive that was! I’ve had three kids and I could NOT imagine having all of those people gawking at me whilst trying to give birth. How unnecessary and stressful for both mother and the baby.
People were always mad
Um the way i saw an secret door on marie's room
Nothing better for sex life than constant scrutiny…criticism….etc
Indulgent fantasy escapism lifestyle is frankly a ptsd self medication. At least in part. Often.
That was barbarism.
