she was a very misunderstood woman in her lifetime. she may have started as a rather foolish character but she grew in the face of adversity to become a great woman, if not perhaps queen

Marie-Antoinette did *not* say the line about the cake... it was Maria Theresa, wife of Sun King Louis XIV who's supposed to have said something like: "Qu'ils mangent de la brioche". Furthermore, correspondence with her relatives indicates that Marie-Antoinette was not at all the frivolous, "wicked" queen as many picture her to be. On the contrary... she probably was rather on the prudish side, and noone has even found any proof supporting an affair with Fersen.

I just want to know how anyone can say she was good Queen. She is known for alot more than just the cake line, and it's all just as horrible.

MARIE ANTOINETTE WAS A FAIR AND GREAT QUEEN SHE JUST SAID ONE LINE AND WAS PUNISHED HER HUSBAND WAS THE ONE DOING WRONG NOT HER SHE DIDNT DESERVE WHAT SHE GOT AND I THINK ALL THE TOWN SHOULD FEEL GUILTY FOR WHAT THEY DID. SIGNED, MARIE ANTOINETTE KIMMONS
