Not really. Bathing in the 17th century was more common than a lot of people realize. Check this link out for a historian that argues this in an article: https://frockflicks.com/the-gross-18th-century/

"I bathe once a month, whether I need it or not."

-- Queen Victoria

The queen herself only bathed 12 times a year.
