Her son Louis Charles (who upon the death of his father became King Louis XVII) was kept in a dark, filthy cell until he died of tuberculosis in 1795. In future years many men came forward claiming to be the long-lost prince. The most believable was Karl Wilhelm Naundorff, who died in Holland in 1845, but DNA tests later established that Naundorff was not related to Marie Antoinette. Moreover, DNA experts announced in April 2000 that tests conducted on the heart of the boy who died in prison proved once and for all that he was, in fact, Marie Antoinette's son.
Marie Antoinette's daughter, Madame Royale, survived the revolution. She became the duchesse d'Angouleme and lived to see the Royal House of Bourbon restored in 1814 and lived on through the reigns of her uncles Louis XVIII (1814 - 1824) and Charles X (1824 - 1830). She had no children.
Incidently, it is said that Marie Antoinette stepped on the executioner's foot on the scaffold and begged his pardon immediately before he sliced off her head.

Not sure. There's a movie coming out about her though. I'm interested in watching it.
