When it was clear that a girl was born, the anticipated celebrations for the expected Dauphin were cancelled and Madame Troisième only had a mass sung in the Chapel of Versailles in her honour.

She grew up at Versailles with her older twin sisters

Madame Seconde. The following year, 1729, the three children were joined by the Dauphin of France Louis
