Early life

Marie Say was born on 25 August 1857 in Verrières-le-Buisson near Paris. Her paternal grandfather, Louis Auguste Say, was the founder of the Say sugar company (now a subsidiary of Tereos). Her father, Constant André Say, ran the family business, which sold sugar made from beetroot.^[1] Her granduncle, Jean-Baptiste Say, was an economist and formulator of Say's law.

Her sister, Jeanne (1848–1916), married Roland, Marquis de Cossé-Brissac (1843–1871), and her brother, Henry (1855–1899), succeeded his father at the Say refinery.

Say became known as Princess Amédée de Broglie.^[3] The couple entertained George V, Isabella II of Spain and the Shah of Iran as guests,^[1] receiving the gift of an elephant from another guest, Jagatjit Singh.^[1] The couple organized performances by the Paris Opera and the Comédie-Française for their guests.^[1] They also resided at the Hôtel de Broglie, an hôtel particulier in Paris.^[3]

Say was widowed in 1917.^[3] In London on 19 September 1930 she non-dynastically married the former Spanish infante, Prince Luís Fernando de Orleans y Borbón, he being then 41 years old and she 72 years old.^[4] According to Pierre de Cossé, Duc de Brissac, her second husband spent the vast majority of her fortune.^[3]
