Does anyone know where the other 2 children Chandler & Beatrice are?! There were 5 children at varying points in Swiss 1 & 2 but in 3 & 4 there's no mention of them!

Chandler died in infancy, but yes, they seem to have forgotten about Beatrice. In reality, she was just one year younger than her brother Gordon if I'm not mistaken, so at this point in the timeline she could be off on her own like Violette is. The real Violette married the Vicompte Jacques de Sibour, and Beatrice later married his brother Compte Louis de Sibour.

Thank you! Wonder why poor Beatrice has been abandoned!

I'm sure they wrote Beatrice out of the series because they cast the Tointon sisters as Rosalie and Violette. If there had been a third Tointon sister, it's likely Beatrice would have remained.
