Brief Bio: 

Marguerite was born into a life of hereditary nobility by her father, Paul Saintignon, House of Saintignon, and Claudine Rowe. She grew up in Paris, France along side her two older sisters, Madeleine and Marceline, who were both intelligent young girls fit for the title of lords and ladies. Their younger sister, on the other hand, was loud, giggly, and sensitive. 

Marguerite found no one fit enough to be her friend, at least not in the social dome that had been given to her on a silver platter. Instead, she sought elsewhere...in a different country. She frequented London for a change of scenery, throwing herself into the life of joy at clubs and parties. At 16, she would meet the only person who ever truly understood her - Princess Margaret, House of Windsor. 

The two were extremely likely pairs. At the same time Marguerite was dealing with the burden of being lesser than her sisters, Princess Margaret was preparing herself for the day that her older sister, Princess Elizabeth, would succeed their father for the Crown of England. They both understood the hardships that came with being the youngest, how dreadful it was to be swept aside and ignored. 

A friendship easily sprouted between the two young girls. Margaret adored partying with aristocrats, fashion, makeup - everything that Marguerite loved as well. Through the years, Marguerite would stay by the Princess’s side as her best friend. She was the first to comfort Princess Margaret when Princess Elizabeth suddenly became Queen Elizabeth II, the first to support her secret relationship with Group Captain Peter Townsend in the name of love, a strong factor in urging Princess Margaret’s scandalous portrait to be released to the public, and much more. 

During the first year of Elizabeth’s reign and Marguerite’s twenty-second year around the Sun, she visited Los Angeles in hopes to pursue an acting career and derail her from the life of nobility her parents had tried to force on her. Young and naive, Marg was ready to do whatever it took to land her a role. However, her innocence cost her much more than she had originally bargained for. An offer made by a famous American film director to include her as a leading role for his upcoming movie seemed just perfect for the eager French girl - so long as she allowed him to bite her. Not thinking much, she agreed and lost all that made her human at 22. This would then lead to his authority over Marguerite, along with emotional, verbal, and at times, physical abuse. 

He kept her underneath his watchful eye for years, separating her from her best friend. It wasn’t until eight years later that she was released from his hold, just in time for Princess Margaret’s wedding with Antony Jones. Marguerite kept her absence a secret and cherished her time with the Princess, knowing that questions would soon arise about her complexion and youth. Just five years later, Marguerite was forced to part ways with Margaret and disappeared. Not too long after, Marguerite’s death was announced from the French and British media with the cause listed as alcohol poisoning. She was given a closed-casket funeral with her family, Princess Margaret, the Queen Mother, and Queen Elizabeth II’s personal representative in attendance. Marguerite was remembered as a beautiful French starlet with a tragic ending and a dear friend to Her Royal Highness, Countess of Snowdon. 

HEADCANONS:

— Marguerite and the Princess would constantly try on different dresses and tiaras whenever Marg came over (much to Elizabeth’s dismay as she saw the young French girl as a second bratty little sister). 

— The media painted Marguerite to be a bit of airhead and saw her only as a pretty face. 

— After faking her death, Marg sought residence in Bon Temps and has not strayed beyond it’s town lines for fifty-six years.
