Now is a good time to post this lovely photo of Pélagie's great-grandmother Marguerite d'Orléans and her sister Marie, who was Amaury's great-great-grandmother:

Marie was married to a Prince of Denmark - but Marguerite could have become Queen of Denmark. The Danish Prince Christian (X) fell madly in love with her in 1893 and proposed to her, but eventually she made up her mind in 1895 and declined. In 1896 she married instead the Duke of Magenta.
