Sometimes known as "Madam Carwell" in England at the time... AnonMoos (talk) 16:22, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Descendants?

The article mentions her descendants but has no mention of her child/ren. I came across this article when reading about Barbara Palmer, I don't know much about the Duchess of Portsmouth. If anyone knows who her child/ren please add. -- 13:30, 23 July 2008 67.87.35.13

The article states that, "Her son Charles (1672–1723) was created Duke of Richmond in 1675." Charles (given the surname Lennox) was a son of King Charles II. WCCasey (talk) 19:27, 14 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The article says that Diana, Princess of Wales is one of her descendants. This is also claimed on the wiki page for Barbara Palmer. Clearly these can't both be true. Anyone have any references for this? 98.207.155.182 (talk) 06:12, 6 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why can't both be true? WCCasey (talk) 19:18, 14 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I posted this on Barbara Palmers page too according to http://www.newworldencyclopedia.org/entry/Charles_II_of_England "Diana, Princess of Wales was descended from two of Charles's illegitimate sons, the Duke of Grafton and the Duke of Richmond (who is also a direct ancestor of Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, second wife of Charles, Prince of Wales)." Grafton was the son of Palmer and Richmond was De Kerouaille — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.77.127.106 (talk) 16:27, 19 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Cause of death

I recently saw a BBC documentary series hosted by Lucy Worsley ("Harlots, Housewives, and Heroines") and the first part dealt primarily with the court ladies of Charles II, including Louise de Kerouaille. At around the 50-minute mark, they start discussing some writings of Nell Gwynn, wherein she makes comments about Louise fleeing back to France [with venereal disease]. Is this true, or just random insults from a competitor? It would be great if someone with info could add the cause of death to this article, regardless, to satisfy the curious. *Vendetta* _{(whois talk edits)} 05:57, 22 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
