At Louis' death, the post, as well as style of Monsieur le Grand was taken by Henri's youngest brother, Charles of Lorraine, Count of Armagnac (at Charles' death, it was given to Henri's son, the Prince of Lambesc).

On 23 December 1689, Henri married Marie Madeleine d'Éspinay[1] and had two children, the future Prince of Lambesc and a daughter styled Mademoiselle de Brionne.

His great-granddaughter Joséphine of Lorraine, "Princess of Carignan" was the grand mother of King Charles Albert of Sardinia thus an ancestor of the present House of Savoy and thus the pretender to the modern Italian throne.

In 1696, Henri escorted Marie Adelaide of Savoy from the frontier to her wedding with Louis, Duke of Burgundy.

[2] Henri died in 1713, five years before his father and thus the countship of Armagnac was given to his youngest brother, Charles.
