Philippe I, the De of Orléans, was known and often cricized for drsg women's clothg and his homosexualy was monly acknowledged. The younger brother of Kg Louis XIV, Philippe I was negatively scribed by the seventeenth-century memoirist Sat-Simon as effemate and "always adorned like a woman." While the terms gay, queer, or even bisexual were rarely directly ed to scribe the royal, his relatnships wh men were well-documented.Acrdg to Retrospect Journal, the urtier Madame Lafayette wrote her memoire that no woman uld ever "enflame [Philippe's] heart." It is also wily accepted that Philippe I had a number of queer relatnships, most notably wh the Chevalier Lorrae, to which his brother turned a bld eye to. His first wife, Prcs Henrietta of England, died of peronis ed by a perforated ulcer, though an vtigatn nducted by Sat-Simon alleged that the Chevalier Lorrae and the Marquis d'Effiat, another of Philippe's supposed lovers, had poisoned her.Philippe later married Prcs Palate Elizabeth Charlotte, who slept separate bedchambers and was generally fivg of what she lled "the Italian vice," a lloquial term for homosexualy that era.
