He was the son of Louis, duke of Burgundy and of Marie-Adélaïde of Savoy.
Marie-Adélaïde was a very lively woman of whom the old king Louis XIV was very fond, and the young couple, deeply in love of each other (quite an unusual fact at the court in Versailles), had rejuvenated the court of the old king and become the center of attraction in Versailles.
Then one year later, the vigorous and lively Marie-Adélaïde of Savoy contracted smallpox (or measles) and died on February 12, 1712, much to the shock of the old king Louis XIV.
