Isabelle Romée
Isabelle Romée (1377–1458) was the wife of Jacques d'Arc and mother to Pierre, Jean, and Jeanne d'Arc.
Biography[edit | edit source]
Known for being an independent woman who went on very dangerous pilgrimages,[1] Isabelle settled down with Jacques d'Arc, Domrémy's doyen.
In 1429, after their daughter Jeanne fled home, Isabelle and her husband received a letter from her. In it, she explained that she felt very guilty about leaving them without a word, but that she had to go and loved them dearly. Isabelle cried at the letter and the couple forgave their daughter.[1]
On 17 July 1429,[2] Isabelle and the d'Arc family attended Charles VII's coronation at Reims.[3]
Personality and traits[edit | edit source]
Isabelle was described by Gabriel Laxart as having a warm and friendly demeanor that contrasted with her husband's large and imposing presence, but he considered both of them "intelligent and big-hearted".[3]
