During the French Revolution, Joseph was often absent on foreign travels in order to secure loans for his father. During the Terror of Robespierre, these foreign trips placed him under suspicion for counterrevolutionary activity. He did in fact support the royalist uprising in Vendée. This caused him to be declared a traitor in his absence, and resulted in the arrest of his wife, father, brother and sister-in-law in Paris. He lived in exile in Great Britain, and returned to France in 1795. When his brother became Prince of Monaco in 1814, but was unable to manage the affairs of state because of poor health, Joseph was appointed regent. He was replaced as regent of Monaco in 1815, as Honoré V, the son of Honoré IV, successfully claimed the right to the throne as its rightful successor.[1]
