Did Napoleon Bonaparte have a wife?

Answer 1

Napoleon had one mistress during his conquest in Egypt. Later he felt guilty about this on his return to France and thought that the only resolution was to divorce his wife Josephine. He was unable to, however, because when he returned to their home his wife had left with their children to go meet him on his way home. He locked himself in their room and when Josephine arrived home with the children he told her then. He, of course, was heartbroken by this. He then took back his decision when he heard his wife and children crying. After he became emperor, he then divorced Josephine to marry an Austrian princess for political reasons. At this point he acquired several mistresses.

Answer 2

He married twice. His first marriage was to Joséphine de Beauharnais.

But while Napoleon's mistresses had children by him, Joséphine did not produce an heir, an impossibility due either to the stresses of her imprisonment during the Terror or to an abortion that she may have had in her twenties. Napoleon ultimately decided to divorce her so he could remarry in search of an heir.

In March 1810, he married Marie Louise, Archduchess of Austria, by proxy; thus he had married into the German royal family (he hated her and literally said: I've married a womb). They remained married until his death, though she did not join him in exile on Elba and thereafter never saw her husband again. The couple had one child, Napoleon Francis Joseph Charles (1811-32), known from birth as the King of Rome. He became Napoleon II in 1814 and reigned for only two weeks. He was awarded the title of the Duke of Reichstadt in 1818 and died of tuberculosis aged 21, with no children.
