Bernard de Nogaret de La Valette d ' Épernon Bernard de Nogaret de La Valette ( 1592 , Angoulême - 25 July 1661 ) , duke of Épernon and a French general , was the son of Jean Louis de Nogaret de La Valette and Marguerite de Foix - Candale , granddaughter of the constable of Montmorency . Through his mother ' s line , Bernard could also claim the English title of Earl of Kendal , originally granted to his ancestor John de Foix in 1446 . In 1622 , Bernard married Gabrielle - Angélique de Verneuil , legitimised daughter of Henri IV and the Marquise de Verneuil , with whom he had a son , Louis - Charles - Gaston de Candale , and a daughter , Anne - Louise - Christine de Foix de La Valette d ' Épernon . Gabrielle - Angélique died in 1627 ( some say Bernard poisoned her ) and in 1634 he married Marie Ducambaut , a niece of Cardinal Richelieu . It was not a happy marriage , as Bernard later conceived a lifelong passion for a middle - class woman named Ninon de Lartigue , who exerted absolute power over him and to whom he gave enormous sums of money . Like his father , Bernard made a career of the military . He was named Colonel - General of infantry and fought at the sieges of Saint - Jean - d ' Angély and of Royan ( 1621 ) and at the attack of the pas de Suse ( 1629 ) . On 15 May 1633 , Bernard became a Chevalier du Saint - Esprit and in 1635 he was charged by Louis XIII with restoring the order which had been disturbed by lifting of taxes and religious passions . He fought in Picardy ( 1636 ) , in Guyenne , and finally against the Spaniards , and repressed the Peasants ' Revolt ( Révolte des Croquants ) in 1637 . Charged by the Prince de Condé in 1638 with leading the assault at the Siege of Fuenterrabía ( Hondarribia ) , he refused , believing that the breach was not broad enough . He yielded his post to Vice - Admiral de Sourdis who launched an ill - fated attack which resulted in heavy losses . This disaster was attributed to the duke of Valette , who had nothing to do with it and who in fact deserved praise for rejoining the remains of the army and leading it to Bayonne . Richelieu , who hated de La Valette , had him tried in front of an extraordinary court chaired by the king himself ( 1639 ) . The court returned a sentence of death but de La Valette , who knew Richelieu well , had prudently departed for England where he received the Order of the Garter . The penalty was carried out in effigy . In 1642 Bernard ' s father died , raising him to the title of duke of Épernon . After the death of Louis XIII , Bernard returned to France where the Parliament of Paris cancelled the judgement against him ( 1643 ) . In 1648 he became governor of Guyenne . That same year , he was responsible for transporting artillery of the Château du Hâ to arm the Château - Trompette to put down unrest resulting from the Parliament of Bordeaux ' s refusal to allow the departure of a shipment of corn , for fear of famine . Bernard also served as governor of Burgundy ( 1654 – 1660 ) and was a guard of the theatre company of Charles Dufresne ( whose most famous member was Molière ) . He died in Paris in 1661 .
