About Philippe of Lorraine
Philippe de Lorraine, known as the chevalier de Lorraine, was a French nobleman and the favourite lover of Philippe I, Duke of Orléans, brother of Louis XIV. He was a descendant of the Dukes of Elbeuf and a member of the House of Guise, a cadet branch of the ducal House of Lorraine, and therefore held the rank of prince étranger at court. He was the commendatory abbot of Sainte-Trinité de Tiron, Saint-Jean-des-Vignes, Fleury, and Saint-Père-en-Vallée.
