Sarah n'a pas compris que l'amitié entre Anne et Abigail est aussi forte et est donc étonnée de découvrir qu'elles se voyaient fréquemment en privé[38]. Finalement, à la suite de son désir de paix, et donc de mettre fin à la guerre de Succession d'Espagne, Anne décide qu'elle n'a plus besoin du duc de Marlborough et le renvoie soi-disant pour détournement de fonds[47]. Parmi ses descendants les plus célèbres, on trouve Winston Churchill, Premier ministre britannique[Note 3], et Diana Spencer, princesse de Galles[Note 4]. [21] After questioning servants and the Royal Household for a week about Abigail's marriage, Sarah discovered that Anne had been present and had given Abigail a dowry of £2,000 from the Privy Purse. [41], Sarah, although a woman in a man's world of national and international politics, was always ready to give her advice, express her opinions, antagonize with outspoken censure, and insist on having her say on every possible occasion. En 1677, Ralph, le frère de Sarah, meurt. Mais Sarah, qui pense toujours à son mari, souhaite qu'Anne soutienne davantage le parti whig, ce qu'elle n'est pas disposée à faire[32]. By the time Anne became Queen, Sarah’s knowledge of government and intimacy with the queen had made her a powerful friend and a dangerous enemy. Maintenant en disgrâce, le couple quitte l'Angleterre et parcourt l'Europe. John chose Sarah over Catherine Sedley, but both John's and Sarah's families disapproved of the match, therefore they married secretly in the winter of 1677–78. Although no date was recorded, the marriage was announced only to the Duchess of York and a small circle of friends, so that Sarah could keep her court position as Maid of Honour.[18]. One major political disagreement occurred when Sarah insisted that her son-in-law, Charles Spencer, the third Earl of Sunderland, be admitted into the Privy Council. [12], Sarah became close to the young Princess Anne in about 1675, and the friendship grew stronger as the two grew older. Anne replied that God's judgment on her concerned herself only, but later admitted that this was the one remark from Sarah which hurt her deeply. Although the new king and queen had awarded Sarah's husband the title Earl of Marlborough, Sarah and John enjoyed considerably less favour than they had during the reign of James II. Sarah est rapidement faite maîtresse de la garde-robe (le plus haute fonction à la cour royale qui puisse être tenue par une femme), Groom of the Stole, Keeper of the Privy Purse et Ranger of Windsor Great Park. Sarah was promptly created Mistress of the Robes (the highest office in the royal court that could be held by a woman), Groom of the Stole, Keeper of the Privy Purse, and Ranger of Windsor Great Park. [30] Anne countered by offering the Marlboroughs a pension of £5,000 a year for life from Parliament, as well as an extra £2,000 a year from the Privy Purse, and they accepted the dukedom.

[2] After Anne's father, King James II, was deposed during the Glorious Revolution, Sarah acted as her agent, promoting her interests during the reigns of William III and Mary II. Sarah was relieved to move back to England. As a result Sarah, who rarely admitted that she was in the wrong, for once realised that she had gone too far and apologised for her rudeness, but her apology had little effect. She was surprised by the grief she felt following the death of her eldest living daughter in 1733. [46] She was present at Abigail's secret wedding, in 1707, to Samuel Masham, groom of the bedchamber to Prince George, without Sarah’s knowledge. Lorsqu'elle se brouille avec Anne en 1711, elle est écartée de la cour, tout comme son mari. », — Nathaniel Hooke, An Account of the Conduct of the Dowager Duchess of Marlborough from her First Coming to Court to the Year 1710 in a letter from herself to My Lord, 1742[10].

Elle vit assez longtemps pour voir la chute de Walpole en 1742. However, Anne, through Sarah, refused, pointing out that a parliamentary grant would be more secure than charity from the Privy Purse. This made her unpopular; as a trustee of her family's estate, she could easily have afforded the payments herself. Sarah commence alors à comprendre ce qui est vraiment arrivé[38]. She was named after Winston’s ancestor, Sarah Churchill, Duchess of Marlborough. Although she left little to the poor and even less to charity, she left her servants annuities far above the average for the time; her favourite, Grace Ridley, received £16,000, equivalent to approximately £1.32 million in today's money.[92]. The passion she showed for Abigail, and the stubborn refusal to dismiss her, angered Sarah to the point that she implied that a lesbian affair was taking place between the two women. She wrote to the Duke of Somerset, "I have reduced the stables to one third of what was intended by Sir John [Vanbrugh] yet I have room for fourty [sic] fine horses". Despite Abigail's owing her position at court to the Duchess of Marlborough, Sarah soon saw Abigail as her enemy who supplanted her in Anne’s affections when Sarah spent more and more time away from the Queen. Il y aura un lac et une cascade… ce qui, je pense, sera un bon ajout à l'endroit, « J'ai réduit d'un tiers les écuries gérées par Sir John [Vanbrugh] et il reste encore de la place pour quarante excellents chevaux, « sur de l'argile, une végétation malade, beaucoup d'humidité et… un endroit malsain, « immensément riche et très peu regrettée par sa propre famille et le monde en général, Cockpit-in-Court était l'endroit où les Tudor faisaient leurs.

Son amitié avec la reine Caroline prend fin quand Sarah lui refuse l'accès à Wimbledon[77]. Sarah's last attempt to re-establish her friendship with Anne came in 1710, when they had their final meeting. La solitude de Sarah pendant cette période la rapproche encore plus d'Anne[15]. Grâce à son influence, elle a réussi à marier des membres de sa famille aux plus grandes dynasties aristocratiques de l'Angleterre. Although Sarah implied that she had encouraged the escape for the safety of Princess Anne, it is more likely that she was protecting herself and her husband. Sarah s'est alliée fortement aux whigs, qui soutiennent le duc de Marlborough durant la guerre, et ces derniers espèrent se servir de la position de Sarah comme favorite royale[27]. Le début du règne de Jacques II se révèle relativement fructueux, bien que l'on ne s'attendît pas à ce qu'un roi catholique puisse prendre le pouvoir dans un pays si farouchement protestant et anticatholique[9]. However, when James attempted to reform the national religion, popular discontent against him and his government became widespread. J'allais la voir peu après et par l'escalier de service de son cabinet, son Altesse Royale [la princesse Anne], Lady Fitzharding [une des plus proches amies de Sarah] et moi-même, accompagnées d'une servante, descendîmes jusqu'à la voiture où nous trouvâmes l'évêque (de Londres) et le comte de Dorset. Sarah est réputée pour dire à la reine exactement ce qu'elle pense et non des flatteries[22]. Au cours de sa vie, elle se querelle avec d'autres personnages importants, notamment sa fille, la deuxième duchesse de Marlborough, l'architecte du palais de Blenheim John Vanbrugh, le premier ministre Robert Walpole, le roi George II de Grande-Bretagne et sa femme la reine Caroline. Politically influential and independently powerful, she was an intimate, and then a blackmailer, of Queen Anne, accusing her of keeping lesbian favourites - including Sarah's own cousin Abigail Masham. The Duke and Duchess of Marlborough's children who survived childhood married into the most important families in Great Britain:[93], In her own time, Sarah Churchill was satirised by many well-known writers in the period, such as Delarivier Manley in her influential political satire, The New Atalantis (1709), and also by Charles Gildon in the first fully-fledged it-narrative in English, The Golden Spy; or, A Political Journal of the British Nights Entertainments (1709), to name just a few.[94][95]. Anne lui répond que, pour son honneur [celui d'Anne], Sarah doit démissionner immédiatement et lui rendre sa clé d'or, le symbole de son autorité dans la maison du roi, dans les deux jours[48]. Sarah had a good relationship with her daughter Anne Spencer, Countess of Sunderland, whereas she later became estranged from her daughters Henrietta, Elizabeth and Mary. When Sarah became pregnant, her marriage was announced publicly (on 1 October 1678), and she retired from the court to give birth to her first child, Harriet, who died in infancy. This document is likely to have been forged by Robert Young, a known forger and disciple of Titus Oates; Oates was famous for stirring a strongly anti-Catholic atmosphere in England between 1679 and the early 1680s. However, Anne told Marlborough that "for her [Anne's] honour" Sarah was to resign immediately and return her gold key – the symbol of her authority within the royal household – within two days. Les conseillers privés protestants whigs ont insisté pour être présents, empêchant ainsi Henri Saint Jean, 1er vicomte de Bolingbroke, de nommer Jacques François Stuart successeur d'Anne. She was played by Alla Demidova in the 1979 Soviet movie A Glass of Water, based on the French play The Glass of Water: or, Effects and Causes (French: Le verre d’eau ou Les effets et les causes) (1840) by Eugène Scribe. Sarah lived to see her enemy Robert Walpole fall in 1742, and in the same year attempted to improve her reputation by approving a biographical publication titled An Account of the Dowager Duchess of Marlborough from her first coming to Court to the year 1710. En tant que gardienne de la bourse privée, Sarah aurait dû être tenue informée de ce don[39]. Now in disgrace, they left England and travelled in Europe. All these attempts failed, even when Anne was threatened with an official parliamentary demand from the Whigs, who were suspicious of Abigail's Tory influence with Anne. Mary II responded to this by demanding that Anne dismiss Sarah. Après la mort de Marie II des suites de la variole en 1694, Guillaume III redonne à Anne ses honneurs, s'efforçant ainsi de regagner sa popularité auprès des Anglais, et lui fournit des appartements au palais Saint James. Le nouveau roi est soutenu par les whigs, qui sont pour la plupart des protestants loyaux[55]. Anne meurt le 1er août 1714 au palais de Kensington. Elle ne permet néanmoins pas à Anne de faire de même quand celle-ci subit la même perte. Sarah did not share Anne's deep interest in religion, a subject she rarely mentioned, although at their last fraught interview she did warn Anne that she risked God's vengeance for her unreasoning cruelty to Sarah. Il rétablit aussi le duc de Marlborough dans ses fonctions et honneurs, tout en le blanchissant des accusations passées. Bien qu'Anne se soit finalement résignée à rentrer à Saint James, l'insensibilité de Sarah l'a gravement offensée et a tendu encore davantage leur relation[34]. Une grande partie de sa succession va à son petit-fils, John Spencer, à condition qu'il n'accepte pas de poste au gouvernement. Malgré son rétablissement, Sarah ouvre son courrier et filtre sa correspondance, craignant que le contenu de ses lettres puisse provoquer une nouvelle attaque[36]. The Duke of York returned to England after the religious tension had eased, and Sarah was appointed a Lady of the Bedchamber to Anne after the latter's marriage in 1683. She was a lady-in-waiting/best friend to Queen Anne of England. [25], Sarah's success as a leader of the opposition only intensified the queen's animosity towards the Marlboroughs. Pope and Swift, although they both had a sneaking admiration for her, viciously attacked her personality and her politics. The news of the public's support for the Whigs reached Marlborough in letters from Sarah and Godolphin, which influenced his political advice to the queen. Cependant, quand le roi tente de modifier la religion nationale, un certain mécontentement s'installe envers lui et son gouvernement. [32] Nevertheless, Anne sent her news of political developments in letters and consulted Sarah's advice in most matters. [83][75], Her friendship with Queen Caroline ended when Sarah refused the queen access through her Wimbledon estate, which resulted in the loss of her £500 income as Ranger of Windsor Great Park. Sarah was kept in all of her offices – purely for the sake of her husband's position as Captain-General of the army – and the tension between the two women lingered on until early in 1711. Elle en reçoit même une de son vieil ennemi, le duc de Somerset[79]. Elle adopte aussi sa plus jeune fille, Diana, qui va devenir sa petite-fille préférée[63]. Le nouveau duc avait soutenu le roi Jacques, maintenant exilé.

La reine est d'une piètre compagnie et Sarah ne la trouve pas stimulante. Le canal et le bassin, qui sont déjà prêts, ont l'air très bien. Because Sarah's grandfather, Sir John Jennings, had fathered twenty-two children, she had a multitude of cousins and did not know them all. [34] Effectively a business manager, Sarah had control over the queen's position, from her finances to people admitted to the royal presence. Anne, already in ill health, felt used and harassed and was desperate for escape.

[3] Sarah campaigned tirelessly on behalf of the Whigs, while also devoting herself to building projects such as Blenheim Palace. [84][74] Sarah was also rude to King George II – making it clear that he was "too much of a German" – which further alienated her from the court. Sarah Churchill, Duchess of Marlborough (1660-1744) Interestingly, James II, abandoned by both his daughters, later blamed Anne’s betrayal not on Sarah but on John Churchill. Sarah continue à soutenir avec véhémence les whigs dans des lettres et des conversations avec Anne, ce avec le soutien de Godolphin et d'autres ministres whigs. There was also a political difference between them: Anne was a Tory (the party known as the "Church party", religion being one of Anne's chief concerns), and Sarah was a Whig (the party known to support Marlborough's wars). While the Duke was fighting the War of the Spanish Succession, Sarah kept him informed of court intrigue and conveyed his requests and political advice to the queen. Today, much of St Albans is named after the Marlboroughs because of Sarah's influence.[92]. James still retained some influence, and he ordered that both Lady Churchill and Princess Anne be placed under house arrest at Anne's residence (the Cockpit[a]) in the Palace of Whitehall. Sarah later claimed in her memoirs that she had raised Abigail "in all regards as a sister", though there were implications that she only assisted her cousin out of embarrassment of her difficult circumstances. En 1704, Anne confie à Lord Godolphin qu'elle ne pense pas qu'elle et Sarah puissent être encore de vraies amies. [44], Sarah had previously introduced her impoverished cousin, then known as Abigail Hill, to court, with the intention of finding a role for her. [21] Eventually Anne received the grant from Parliament and felt she owed this to Sarah's efforts.
