Although The History Channel noted that Marie Antoinette’s alleged remark of “let them eat cake” when told her subjects had no bread was a significant catalyst of the French Revolution, it’s unlikely that she ever said it. Not only was she not the first queen to have a similar statement attributed to her, but Lady Antonia Fraser described the quote as uncharacteristic of Marie Antoinette, who the evidence suggests was an intelligent, compassionate woman.
