Madeleine I of Vanivere

Madeleine I (born ''Madeleine Geneviève Eugénie Gail Bonaparte-Capet; June 21, 1962) is the former Empress of Vanivere. Born into the Vaniveran Imperial Family, Madeleine was raised in a totally different world than most other people. From the age of six, Madeleine was trained to rule over the Empire as only the second empress regnant.

Upon her grandfather's death in 1971, Madeleine became the first hereditary Crown Dauphine of Vanivere since Empress Sophia I. With her father's ascending the throne as Emperor of Vanivere, Madeleine and her family became the center of public media attention within the Empire and abroad. With paparazzis beginning to appear to snap shots of the Imperial Family, Madeleine's mother, Empress Jacqueline, began staying at Caserta more and more often.

Nineteen years old, Princess Madeleine was married to Damien Davenor. Taking up residence in Hôtel Matignon in Paris, Madeleine and Damien had two children during her time as Crown Dauphine: Alexandre and Daphne.

Family
Madeleine de Chambéry is a member of the influential European House of Bonaparte-Capet. The eldest of the two daughters of Emperor Henri IV and Jacqueline de Savoie, Madeleine is the older sister of Princess Chelsea. After ascending the Vaniveran throne, Madeleine and Chelsea still stay in touch despite Chelsea moving away to Brussels.

Other relatives include Chelsea's children Austin and Arianna Wellington, Matthieu de Anjou, and Claire de Anjou.

Damien Davenor
Madeleine Bonaparte-Capet met Damien Davenor during her high school senior year in the city of Orléans. Madeleine had just recieved her first real job since graduation and began to grow close with Damien. After a few weeks, they began dating and the two met each other's parents. A little over a year later, Princess Madeleine was married to Damien Davenor in December of 1981.

A few months short of two years later, Madeleine gave birth to her firstborn, a baby boy, Alexandre Michel Guillaume Lucas Napoléon Bonaparte-Capet. Three years later, Madeleine and Damien had their second child, a daughter, Daphne Madeleine Jacquelyn Geneviève Gail Bonaparte-Capet. Two years after the birth of her daughter, Madeleine was crowned Empress of Vanivere.

Though it seemed Empress Madeleine and Prince Consort Damien lived a happy married life, their lives were far from happy. Damien somehow changed and began to become "a stranger" to the Empress. But even through this, Madeleine gave birth to her third and final child, a son, Barron Leonardo Henri Louis Philippe Bonaparte-Capet.

Not six months later, Madeleine and Damien separated. Their divorce was finalized two years later.

Joseph de Chambéry
After her marriage to Damien, Empress Madeleine was hesitant to remarry. But upon meeting Joseph de Chambéry in 1995, Madeleine once again fell for the man of her dreams, though this time, she was right. After a year and a half, Madeleine and Joseph were married at Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris.

Because Joseph has a son from a previous marriage, Jonathan de Chambéry, Madeleine received a stepson. Ever since her marriage to Joseph, Madeleine has appeared even happier than during her marriage to Damien.
