Marie de Rohan - Second Marriage

Second Marriage

After Luynes died in combat in 1621, she married Claude of Lorraine, Duke of Chevreuse on 21 April 1622. From this second marriage, she had three daughters. Two of them were religious, Anne-Marie of Lorraine (1625–1652), abbess of Pont-aux-Dames, and Henriette of Lorraine (1631–1693), abbess of Jouarre and later at Port-Royal. The third daughter, Charlotte-Marie of Lorraine (1627–1652), having failed to wed Armand de Bourbon, Prince of Conti, became the mistress of Cardinal de Retz and played a role in the Fronde, but never married.
