Emilie de Poitiers

Emilie de Poitiers(1742-)  was the illegitimate child of Baronesse Claire de Poitiers and an unnamed wealthy man but raised as a noble by the Baronesse de Poitiers's husband in order to avoid scandal. She was a lady-in-waiting for Princesse Lea Genevieve of France.

Early Life
Emilie was the product of an affair between Claire de Poitiers and a wealthy, but not noble, bourgeoisie man. Her biological father died a month after Emilie was born from illness, but in reality he was poisoned by the Baron de Poitiers. Both her mother and her husband have been separated since.

Emilie grew up on the French countryside away but when she was 18 decided to secure herself a position at Court.

At Versailles
Through some connections she was able to secure herself a position as a lady-in-waiting for Princesse Lea Genevieve.

Austria
She accompanied the Princesse to Vienna, Austria after the death of Charles VI to help give birth to her illegitimate child in secret. Emilie was with the Princess for six months as the Princess attended Charles VI's funeral and so the Princesse was away from the prying eyes at Versailles. The Princesse gave birth to a daughter, Sophia "Amalia" Yvette, who was placed into a convent. Emilie was sworn to secrecy along with the few other servants that were also there.
