She was not satisfied with her position as the spouse of a prince with no prospects of being king; she kept in contact with the French court, in particular with her twin, informed her brother the Dauphin of all events at the Spanish court, and had already by 1740 established a net of contacts at the French court to assist her in her ambition to obtain an independent position for herself and her spouse, "worthy of the birth of both".

Her mother-in-law Queen Elisabeth reportedly made sure that Philip stayed in camp for almost all of the war, separated from his wife, in order to prevent her from replacing his mother in his affection; through their correspondence, the Queen repeatedly asked her son if he loved his wife: "I want to know if you love . : Tell me the truth!" Despite the mutual antipathy between Élisabeth and her mother-in-law they were in fact united in their ambitions for Prince Philip.
