"Let them eat cake," she said, and so they killed her. Who is this last Queen of France?
Answer Marie Antoinette
The French Revolution may have been inevitable, but Marie Antoinette sure kicked the can down the road. Though it's not on any official records, the quote, “Let them eat cake,” is attributed to the last Queen of France, who notoriously threw lavish parties while famine swept across the country. Antoinette was executed by guillotine after being convicted of high treason in 1793 by the Revolutionary Tribunal.
