In those days strict sexual monogamy was the exception rather than the rule. A certain amount of infidelity (on the part of the men of course) was expected and usually tolerated in arranged dynastic marriages. By the standards of that time, their marriage was indeed a happy one and historians agree that they loved one another deeply. MT's reaction to his death was not very different from Queen Victoria's after she lost her husband. Both retreated from society and remained in mourning for the rest of their lives.

It was only after that Maria Theresa became menopausal that he then turned to mistresses to have that action in real life. Check the actual history instead of spewing the fictional version that this show had as creative license.

Why is he looking at a mirror?
@rudrapatra1804Ай бұрын
when there was no need for seeing her for official work but had to stay there so it was more respectful to look at mirror rather than looking directly unless called
