- Biography on Gaston D'Orléans - The Brother Of Louis XIII: Gaston of France, Duke of Orléans was born on April 25, 1608 in the Chateau de Fontainebleau and died on February 2, 1660 in Blois Castle. He was a son of King Henry IV and Maria De Médicis, and thus a prince from the French royal house of Bourbon and the younger brother of King Louis XIII.
Gaston carried the titles Duke of Anjou (1608-1640), Duke of Orléans and Chartres and Count of Blois (from 1626), Duke of Montpensier and Saint-Fargeau (from 1627), Duke of Valois (from 1630), Duke of Alençon and Baron von Amboise (from 1646).

It's lovely how he married Anne Marguerite de Lorraine three times. Shows his passion for her. Thanks for the video.
Thank you so much for watching again, I really appreciate your support !
Though he deceived her a lot.
Gaston was quite the traitorous character! Such a complicated family dynamic 👑. Merci 🌸
Probably learned it from his mother, Maria de Médici.
Thank you for watching, Christine !

I thought with your "Christmas at Versailles" I would have an opportunity to catch up on the early videos I have not yet seen. But you keep them coming. (I am not complaining.)
I'll be slowing down a bit after Christmas, I'll go back to my two video per week schedule...
Love learning more about Louis XIII and his family as Louis XIII is my favorite French monarch. Incidentally, Gaston has also been featured on the small screen in the BBC series "The Musketeers" playing an antagonist to Anne of Austria in the final season.
I'm curious to see that series. Hopefully they'll air it here as well.
@@TheKingsofFrance It's an excellent series. Highly recommend.
@@TheKingsofFrance as far as I know Aramis was the best Musketeer he was the most galant and the best duelist
Great video history I enjoyed it can't wait to see more soon. Your history videos are always enjoyable and relaxing have a great day 👍😀
So happy you always enjoy them, it makes me very happy
Loved the video!
Thank you Pedro !
@UCJb8b2PYYU6I6qx9-kJwa_g before the end of the year !
@@TheKingsofFrance we all know about Monseur and Cavalier Lorain and Louis XIII we know about Louis Burbon the natural son of Louis XIV but do you know any other LGBT French nobles (my personal favorites are not even French actually) Maria Christina the 5th daughter of Maria Teresa and Isabella of Parma (the so called Orpheus and Eurydice)
Hurray thanks for sharing another video
Thank YOU for watching !
I'm so lucky to have visited Fontainebleau when I was 12.
Joyeux Noel and season's greetings 🎄
Merry Christmas Alison !
Some days ago I met your channel and I was fascinated. I am studying history at a university, but I still love learning some historical facts in my free time. It is so relatable to watch your videos while I am eating.
I support every channel which provides wonderful stories about history.
I am happy you're enjoying my channel Nicolas. Hope you'll stick around for a while !
French Queens always loved their second sons.
Hi Renias, good to see you, I hope you are well !
@@TheKingsofFrance I'm fine, thanks. I watch every video but it's probably not helpful to repeat the same comment on every single one.
I wish you a merry christmas!
Anne of Austria loved Louis XIV much more than Philippe 1 of Orleans
@@ucheokoroafor8273 Yes and no
Gaston seemed to have been such a pain in his brother's behind!
Indeed ! Thank you for watching !
Yeah, it seems to be a popular hobby for the younger brothers of kings! 😂
Gaston certainly was busy.
I can see why the Cardinal didn't want him to remarry so his niece had a chance to be Queen but you'd think Louis XIII would have married him off just in case he never produced an heir.
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts !
Merci! 👑 🇫🇷
Merci à toi Ann !!
Wonderful video. It is interesting to note that his daughter, La Grande Mademoiselle's life would eventually turn out to be just as difficult as the life her father led.
I'll be doing a video about her at a later time !
@@TheKingsofFrance Thank you. I am so looking forward to it.
Philip(Felipe)V The First Spanish Bourbon King,His Video Will Be Most Interesting,What A Great Christmas Present!!! More Videos On The Spanish Bourbons Are To Come I'm Sure?! 👑🇪🇦
Yes ! I'm working on video script for Philip II and Maria Anna Of Neuburg atm.
Hello, Fabulous thank you so much. 😊 xxxx
Thank you so much Laura !!!
His name actually is Gaston Jean Baptiste De Bourbon
Very interesting! And the vid on Philip V of Spain will be great; I've just worked out where he fits.
He’ll ‘air’ on December 25. He’s the grandson of Louis XIV… if you watch the video on Charles II of Spain, you’ll already learn a bit more about him !
@@TheKingsofFrance I did watch that, ofc, & I've found another amazing channel about Iberian royalty, which is brilliant cos they're so intermarried with French royalty. I've got an epic muddle of linked-up family trees of Spain, Portugal & France, & ofc I ended up at the poor old Habsburgs, & discovered Philip V was the guy who eventually got the throne after they crashed & burned.
Could we please know more of the relationship between Louis XIII and Cinq-Mars? Wonderful work!!!
I'll put Cinq-Mars on my list of videos to make. Thank you for watching !
I'm guessing his daughter Marie Anne died in the cradle since the next Duke de Chartres was Monseiur Le Regent
I'm very curious about the conte de St-Germain. Was is title from real nobility or fake?
His daughter Mari Louise had a son Gian Gastone Medici ho was the last of the Medici line as he died childless
Hypothetically if Gaston had a son that could inherit Orléan after him what would be Monseiur Philippe's title
Upon birth he was given the title Duke of Anjou, so he'd probably have kept that title his entire life.
What happened with her daughter ? I have read that she was in negotiations to marry one of her cousins right?
If you are referring to Anne Marie d'Orléans or “Le Grande Mademoiselle”, yes, I belive that at some point in time there were talks for her to marry her first cousin, Louis XIV
I will do a video on her too !
She never married
What if the French revolution never happened?
I guess the French monarchy would’ve evolved in a model as seen in the UK nowadays…
Probably we would have a Louis XXI at this point
Not just France, but the world would have been different (and - in my opinion, not that you asked - better off). Consider the words of one historian: "What, after all, would Marx and Engels have been had it not been for the French Revolution?"
The Regent...... the son of Philippe d'Orleans..... was the e🙂of Louis 14---
Thank you for watching and commenting !
Cinq Mars was the mignon of Louis XIII...that got bad real quick.
Thank you Ludovic !!
