The reason was likely that she had no wish to marry. She stated herself that she appreciated the "sweet, independent life" her unmarried status gave her: according to the Civil Code of 1734, all unmarried women were under the guardianship of their closest male relative unless she petitioned for legal majority, and when a law reform in 1858 allowed for unmarried women to be automatically declared of legal majority by a simple application to the closest court, Eugénie belonged to the first women to use this right.Österberg, Carin et al., Svenska kvinnor: föregångare, nyskapare.

In May 1867, Queen Victoria granted the style of Highness to any children born of the marriage of Prince and Princess Christian of Schleswig-Holstein. In June 1917, a notice appeared in the Court Circular that a Royal Warrant was to be prepared permitting George V's cousins to stop using the "of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Augustenburg" part of their titles. However, no warrant was prepared, and they were never formally granted the titles of Princesses of Great Britain and Ireland. However, their unmarried status and their right to be styled Highness dating from Queen Victoria's concession of 1867 rendered their situations awkward, so that it was easier to allow them to retain their status as princesses while avoiding the question of immediate family membership altogether.

She purposefully sends letters to let Lord Athlyne know where Joy and her father will be vacationing together before Miss Hayes and Joy's mother meet the father/daughter pair. When reading the novel it is important to note not only the historical information with wars and conflicts occurring, but also the social changes that allow for a more critical understand and evaluation of the novel. This is just one example of the many that this novel holds for the differences between "The New Woman" and the woman that obeys men and "properly" fulfills her role in society. Miss Hayes is not married and she mentions this frequently to Joy as if Miss Hayes regrets her unmarried status and wishes that her niece will never have to face this burden.

When Anne's spy La Porte was arrested, Hautefort visited him in the Bastille dressed as a servant to inform him so that his and Anne's stories could adjust to each other so that they would know what to say during inquest and not give each other away. In 1635, she lost her position as favorite when Richelieu arranged for Louise de La Fayette to become the new object of the king's platonic love, but she regained it when Louise de La Fayette entered a convent in 1637. She was even promoted to share the post of dame d'atour with her grandmother, which gave her title of 'Madame' despite her unmarried status. In November 1639, however, the king finally tired of the constant conflicts and reconciliations in his unanswered relationship with Marie de Hautefort and had her exiled from court and replaced as favorite by Henri Coiffier de Ruzé, Marquis of Cinq-Mars.

Franchi received her Confirmation on 11 May 1818 and later completed her studies in 1824. In 1840 she became betrothed but her fiancé (who was an older man) died due to a disease not long after the engagement. In 1842 her childless uncle Carlo Andrea Franchi divided his estate among his nieces and nephews and she received 3000 liras. It was around 1846 that she met for the first time Gian Abbondio Crotti (the Como Cathedral canon) who became her spiritual director and close collaborator. Her mother died in 1849 and her father soon followed in 1852 which came all of a sudden with little warning; her father had bequeathed 32 000 lires to her but was concerned about her unmarried status so had his two sons Antonio and Pietro take care of her. On 27 September 1853 – alongside Nina Luigia Allegri and other companions Lucrezia Schiavetti and Anna Maria Poletti – she established the Suore Infermiere dell'Addolorata; diocesan approval for the order came later on 25 December 1862 from the Bishop of Como Carlo Marzorati.
