From 1778 she was First Lady-in-Waiting to Madame Elisabeth of France, sister of King Louis XVI. She was admitted to the inner circle of Queen Marie-Antoinette at the Hameau of Trianon. During the French Revolution she fled France with other members of her family and settled in St Petersburg where she died.
