Why did Marie Antoinette have to speak to Madame Du Barry?
Madame Du Barry was the official mistress of Louis XV and therefore his little spoiled darling. Madame Du Barry wanted to be acknowledged at court, but nobody did. The only reason courtiers spoke to her was to please the King. Madame Du Barry wanted Marie Antoinette to speak to her desperately, but because Marie Antoinette (being the dauphine) was way higher in rank, it was not allowed for Madame Du Barry to speak to her first. She had to wait until Marie Antoinette would say a few words directed to her, before she was allowed to speak back. Marie Antoinette learned that Madame Du Barry had been a prostitute in previous years and was a provocative woman. Marie Antoinette found it hard to believe that such a woman with such a history and such behaviour was allowed at court, let alone be the King's mistress. Marie Antoinette's evil three aunts (the sisters of Louis XV) spurred her on not ever to speak word to her. Madame Du Barry complained, cried, and begged Louis XV to order Marie Antoinette to speak to her, but she kept refusing. Eventually, when Empress Maria Theresia (Marie Antoinette's mother) sent Marie Antoinette a very angry letter in which she harshly told her daughter how foolish she was to keep her mouth shut to the woman, she gave in. Her exact words eventually were: "there are many people today at Versailles" and she said it not directly looking at Madame Du Barry but standing next to her. That was all she would ever say to her. Madame Du Barry was pleased. Marie Antoinette later said "that woman will never again hear the sound of my voice". And she kept word.
