Alice Heine (10 February 1857 – 22 December 1925) was an American-born Princess consort of Monaco, by marriage to Prince Albert I of Monaco. Marcel Proust used her as a model for the Princesse de Luxembourg in his novel, In Search of Lost Time. Her first husband was the Duke of Richelieu, and one of the titles of her second husband was Duke of Mazarin; she was thus unique in bearing the titles of both Cardinal Richelieu and Cardinal Mazarin.


First marriage[edit]

on February 27, 1875, in Paris she married Armand de Jumilhac, Marquis of Jumilhac (future 7th Duke of Richelieu) with whom she had issue.

  2. Odile Marie Auguste Septimanie Chapelle de Jumilhac (1879–1974) married Gabriel de La Rochefoucauld, Prince of La Rochefoucauld and had issue.
