Notities over Gaston Jean Baptiste d'ORLEANS

Gaston, Duke of Orléans (24 April 1608 - 2 February 1660), was the third son of King Henry IV of France and his wife Marie de Medici. As a son of the king, he was born a Fils de France. He later acquired the title Duke of Orléans, by which he was generally known during his adulthood. As the eldest surviving brother of King Louis XIII, he was known at court by the traditional honorific Monsieur.

Gaston Jean Baptiste was born at the Palace of Fontainebleau on 24 April 1608 and at birth was given the title of Duke of Anjou. In 1626, at the time of his marriage to the young Marie de Bourbon, Duchess of Montpensier, he received in appanage (with their respective titles) the duchies of Orléans and Chartres, and the county of Blois. He had nominal command of the army which besieged La Rochelle in 1628, having already entered upon a course of political intrigue that would occupy the remainder of his life. He was the heir presumptive to the throne of France from the death of his brother Nicolas Henri in 1611 until the birth of his elder brother's first son in 1638.

Gaston first married on 6 August 1626, at Nantes to Marie de Bourbon, Duchess of Montpensier, daughter and heiress of Henri de Bourbon, Duke of Montpensier. They had a daughter:
Anne Marie Louise d'Orléans, Duchess of Montpensier (29 May 1627 - 5 April 1693), called Mademoiselle de Montpensier, but later being best known as the Grande Mademoiselle.
Marie de Bourbon died six days after giving birth (4 June 1627), leaving her daughter the last of the line of the Montpensier line of the House of Bourbon.

While taking refuge from the wrath of Cardinal Richelieu in Lorraine, Gaston fell in love at first sight with Marguerite of Lorraine, the sister of Charles IV, Duke of Lorraine. But as France and Lorraine were then enemies, he was refused the king's permission to marry a sister of its duke. Nonetheless, Gaston fled again to Lorraine and, in a secret ceremony in the presence of her family at Nancy during the night of 2 - 3 January 1632, Gaston took the princess Marguerite as his wife. Because he had not obtained the prior permission of his elder brother, the king - one of his many acts of defiance - the couple could not appear at the French court and the marriage was kept secret.

By right of her marriage, Marguerite became known as Madame at court. After the death of his mother in 1642, Gaston was bequeathed the Luxembourg Palace, which became the couple's Parisian residence under the name Palais Orléans once they were restored to royal favour. They also sojourned at the Château de Blois, in the Loire Valley, where their first child was born in 1645.

Marguerite and Gaston d'Orléans had five children, of whom three daughters survived into adulthood:
Marguerite Louise d'Orléans (28 July 1645 - 17 September 1721) married Cosimo III de' Medici, Grand Duke of Tuscany and had issue.
Élisabeth Marguerite d'Orléans (26 December 1646 - 17 March 1696) married Louis Joseph of Lorraine, Duke of Guise and had issue.
Françoise Madeleine d'Orléans (13 October 1648 - 14 January 1664) married Charles Emmanuel II, Duke of Savoy but died childless.
Jean Gaston d'Orléans, Duke of Valois (17 August 1650 - 10 August 1652) died in infancy.
Marie Anne d'Orléans (9 November 1652 - 17 August 1656) died in infancy.

Gaston had an illegitimate daughter by Marie Porcher:
Marie bâtarde d'Orléans (1 January 1631, Paris - ?).

He also had an illegitimate son by Louise-Roger de La Marbelière:
Louis bâtard d'Orléans, chevalier de Charny, (13 January 1640, Joué les Tours - 1692, Spain), later General under the service of Spain.
