High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Joséphine de Beauharnais (23 June 1763 29 May 1814) was the first wife of Napoléon Bonaparte, and thus the first Empress of the French. Her first husband Alexandre de Beauharnais had been guillotined during the Reign of Terror, and she had been imprisoned in the Carmes prison until her release five days after Alexandre's execution. Through her daughter, Hortense, she was the maternal grandmother of Napoléon III. Through her son, Eugéne, she was the great-grandmother of later Swedish and Danish kings and queens, as well as the last Queen of Greece. The current reigning houses of Belgium, Norway and Luxembourg also descend from her. She did not bear Napoleon any children; as a result he divorced her in 1810 to marry Marie-Louise of Austria. Josèphine was the recipient of numerous love letters written by Napoleon, many of which still exist.
