Marie-Thérèse was known for her piety and devotion to her family. She had a strong sense of duty and loyalty to the Bourbon monarchy. Throughout her life, she remained a symbol of resilience and grace in the face of adversity.

Marie-Thérèse, Duchess of Angoulême, passed away on October 19, 1851, in Edinburgh, Scotland. She was laid to rest in the Royal Crypt at the Monastery of Kostanjevica in Slovenia.
