ディアーヌ・ド・ポワチエ

ダイアナ、ダイアン、Diane de Poitiers(1499-1566)

Diane de Poitiers (September 3, 1499 - April 25, 1566) was a fixture at the courts of several French kings, and became notorious as the mistress of King Henri II.

She was born in the château de Saint-Vallier, in the town of Saint-Vallier, Drôme, in the Rhône-Alpes region of France. Married to a grandson of King Charles VII who served the court of King François I, she gained the title of Duchesse de Valentinois.

She stayed at court after bexoming a widow and, at age 35, became the mistress of the then 16-year-old Henri d'Orléans, later to be King Henri II. Although King Henri II fulfilled his duty by marrying the noble foreigner Catherine de Medici, Diane de Poitiers would remain his lifelong true love.-wikipedia.en
