Born at the Louvre Palace in Paris on 16 or 26 November, daughter of the King of France. Married King Charles I on 13 June 1625 and the couple went on to have two sons who became King Charles II and King James II. Her Catholicism and her spending habits made her unpopular and a problem. But the King and Queen shared an interest in the arts and the marriage worked. Died near Paris.
