Robert is a supporting character in Les Rois maudits (The Accursed Kings), a series of French historical novels by Maurice Druon. He was portrayed by Alexandre Rignault in the 1972 French miniseries adaptation of the series, and by Ioan Siminie in the 2005 adaptation.

6ème et dernier fils du roi Louis IX. En 1272 Robert se maria avec Béatrice, fille unique et héritière de Jean de Bourgogne, second fils du duc de Bourgogne et sire de Bourbon par son mariage avec Agnès de Dampierre, héritière de la deuxième maison de Bourbon, comme sa fille Béatrice. Robert fut reconnu sire de Bourbon en 1283. Robert créa ainsi la troisième maison de Bourbon, la plus célèbre puisqu'elle accéda aux trônes de France, puis d'Espagne, de Naples et de Sicile, de Parme, de Luxembourg et, par la branche d'Orléans, au trône de Brésil. Il est donc l'ancêtre d'Henri IV (né Henri de Bourbon) et des rois de France de la branche des Bourbons.
