Is it established that Louis's favorites were his lovers? It seems to me that this is rather controversial, and that many historians would deny actual homosexual activity by Louis. So that bit seems potentially POV. john k 23:58, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Richelieu - Louis split

I'm removing the part where it says the execution strained the relations between Louis XIII and Cardinal Richelieu. Not only were they both dead within six months, but Louis was with the Cardinal through his last days, sometimes feeding him by hand. Source for that is CV Wedgewood's The Thirty Years War, 2005 NYRB Classics, page 439. JoshNarins 14:29, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
