Under the terms of his marriage settlement, Louis received the county of Dunois, Châteaudun and Romorantin as an advancement of inheritance from his father.[1] In 1386, he married Marie of Berry, daughter of John, Duke of Berry, but the marriage produced no children.[2]
Louis died before his father on 15 July 1391. His death without issue left Guy II without a direct heir, resulting in the later sale of the Blois inheritance to Louis I, Duke of Orléans.[1]
