Did Queen Marie Antoinette of France really exclaim "Let them eat cake!" upon hearing of the suffering of her subjects?
Well probably not, but she was still sent to her death by French revolutionaries for treason against the French people, so does she deserve her reputation as an ignorant aristocrat, or is there just a bit more behind Marie Antoinette?

*Fun fact: Greying one's hair (often through the use of wigs) was a common trend in the 18th century France. Marie Antoinette died at age 37 but to us, she appears to be a much older woman.
