In 1530, she was appointed Première dame d'honneur to the new queen, Eleanor of Austria, a new court office installed just a few years earlier, which made her responsible for all of the other ladies-in-waiting of the queen.[2] She retired in 1535 and was replaced by Mme de Givry.[3]
She had considerable patronage power independently of her husband,[4][5] and had an important role in spreading the influence of Calvinism in France in the 16th Century.[6]
Marriagesedit
Louise married her first husband, Ferri de Mailly, in 1511.[1] This marriage produced a daughter;
Ferry died in 1513, and Louise remarried in 1514 to Gaspard I de Coligny.[7] From her second marriage she had three sons, all of whom played important roles in the first period of the French Wars of Religion:
