One of his sisters, Jeanne, was the mother of Jean de Nant, archbishop of Vienne (1405–1423), then of Paris (1423–1426).
[7] He was not there long, as on 29 March 1389 he was named archbishop of Rouen,[8] although he did not take possession of the archdiocese before November 1389 (the Gallia Christiana dates his solemn entry to 1393; he was however present at the manor of Déville as of August 1389).
He was also present at the convent of the Celestines of Avignon during the burial of Clement VII in September 1401.
He celebrated mass in the Sainte-Chapelle at the coronation of Queen Isabeau of Bavaria, wife of King Charles VI of France.
[10] He died on 18 February 1407 in the hôtel of the archbishops of Rouen in Paris[11][12] and was buried in the Abbey of Saint-Seine in an imposing tomb with a recumbent effigy.
