A Polish countess

In chapter 2 of 'Empire of Ivory' Jane said:

“But that aside—well, we hear he has made a very good friend in Warsaw, a Polish countess they say is a raving beauty (...)"

The Polish countess was Maria Walewska (7 December 1786 – 11 December 1817; see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marie_Walewska - in English and https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maria_Walewska - in Polish!).

Altough name is not used, romance started in January 1807, which provides time for events in the chapter. Moreover, Napoleon fathered son of Maria Walewska, born 4 May 1810, which was proof that Josephine was barren, while Napoleon was fertile. This was reason for divorce with Josephine, which is important for the plot of 'Crucible of Gold'.

Is this enough to add Maria Walewska to Historical Figures?
