Anne Thérèse of Savoy (1 November 1717 – 5 April 1745) was a Savoyard princess born in Paris. She was the second wife of Charles de Rohan, the friend of Louis XV and great military man.

Biography

Born at the Parisian Hôtel de Soissons, she was a member of the House of Savoy. Her father was the Prince of Carignano and a grandson of Thomas Francis, Prince of Carignano.

Through her mother, she was a granddaughter of the then king of Sicily.[1] Her mother was Maria Vittoria Francesca of Savoy, an illegitimate daughter of Victor Amadeus II and his favourite mistress Jeanne Baptiste d'Albert de Luynes.

She grew up in Paris, their parents fleeing the court of Savoy due to her father incurring large debts in the state. Their parents arrived in Paris during the Regency of Philippe d'Orléans (1715–1723), regent of the Kingdom for the infant Louis XV.

She was an aunt of the future princesse de Lamballe as well as cousin of Louis XV.[2]

Her mother successfully intrigued to bring about good marriages for her two surviving children; Anne Thérèse's only surviving brother, Louis Victor, Prince of Carignano married Christine of Hesse-Rotenburg, youngest sister of the late Queen of Sardinia.

Anne Thérèse herself would marry into the House of Rohan, one of the most powerful and extravagant families at the French court.

Her husband to be was Charles de Rohan, the widower of Anne Marie Louise de La Tour d'Auvergne, a granddaughter of the famous Marie Anne Mancini. Charles was the Prince of Soubise, Duke of Rohan-Rohan, Lord of Roberval, and Marshal of France from 1758, was a military man, a minister to the Louis XV and Louis XVI, and a notorious libertine. Orphaned at the age of 9, his younger sister Marie de Rohan was later known as Madame de Marsan as wife of Gaston de Lorraine.

The couple married at the vieux Château de Rohan in the town of Saverne on 6 November 1741. Presiding over the ceremony was Armand de Rohan, bishop of Strasbourg and brother of Charles. Anne Thérèse had a step daughter, Charlotte de Rohan, future wife of Louis Joseph de Bourbon and grandmother of the murdered duc d'Enghien.

Anne Thérèse was a quiet wife. She died in childbirth at the Hôtel de Soubise. In December 1745, her widowed husband married again; this time to Anna Viktoria of Hesse-Rotenburg, niece of the later Princess of Condé.[3] Charles' new wife, as amorous as he, tried to steal 900,000 livres from the prince; she was arrested by order of Louis XV and later given a pension of 24,000 livres.
