Question about the real Princesse Lamballe
I read this, (keep in mind I found it on wikipedia!):
"On 3 September, she was brought before a hastily assembled tribunal which demanded she "take an oath to love liberty and equality and to swear hatred to the King and the Queen and to the monarchy".[7] She refused, upon which her trial summarily ended with the words, "Élargissez madame" ("Take madame away"). She was immediately taken to the street and thrown to a group of men who killed her within minutes.
Some reports allege that she was raped and that her breasts were cut off, in addition to other bodily mutilations and that her head was cut off and stuck on a pike. Other reports say that it was brought to a nearby café where it was laid in front of the customers, who were asked to drink in celebration of her death. Other reports state that the head was taken to a barber in order to dress the hair to make it instantly recognizable, though this has been contested. Following this, the head was replaced upon the pike and was paraded beneath Marie Antoinette’s window at the Temple.”
My question is, if this did happen, why did she have to suffer such a brutal and vicious death and Marie Antoinette was hanged? Both deaths were terrible but clearly Princess Lamballe suffered a much worse fate. I would think there would be more animosity towards Marie, since she was the queen.
