That's plausible! Cause reading back on it, he did say that together they could make a better offspring. But there's also a part where he did say that she was the only one he had ever loved (which can just be him being obsessive with her). My thoughts just went like -- he was probably mad or frustrated because he couldn't ever get her (love and attention) during both times so he probably got it after her death (・_・;
But it'd be so fucked up for the duke to get her head or womb
Please don't tell me he took what I think he did. (I was thinking her womb/sexual organs but her head might be it too.)
