While some regard it to be a fake story from the past, some look upon it in a totally different manner.
Elite Relationships
As her life got much attention and fame, Marie began to travel leaving behind the Village of Songy where she was actually rescued. On one of her travel journeys, she came across the Queen of Poland. The queen and Marie together went for hunting, and the feral woman amazed her with her skills.
Instilled Hunting
It is said that while the queen and Marie were hunting in the wild, Marie did not seem to forget her hunting skills even after being kept under the treatment at St. Maurs. Rather, she with utmost perfection hunted a wild rabbit and left the Queen perplexed. She still had those hunting skills and have not forgotten them completely.

It is said that some of the French Literary Magazines published articles on the life of a feral woman, who escaped the shipwreck and wandered in the Songy village. These publications made her popular in England, Scotland, and Sweden. For a questionable period of time, she is believed to have lived a life of a nun as well.
Attracting The Rich
Marie has had associations with some of the most popular faces of the elite society. Almost every superior class member had their conversations with her. However, it is still not known that how a girl dressed in rags attracted the rich women who were the epitome of feminity. It is said that her charismatic way of communicating and her harsh story tempted everyone.
