Trashing contents of Petit Trianon, mean European princess (5,10)
I believe the answer is:
marie antoinette
'princess' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Maybe there's an association between them I don't understand?
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for marie antoinette that I've seen before include "unpopular queen" , "She lost her head" , "Queen, guillotined in 1793" , "French queen, d.1793" .)
