Im romanian, and we have a king,Carol II,the cousin of Eduard VIII,who also left the throne for a woman, almost identical as W.Simpson.In real history books,i ve read that both cousins ( your Eduard and out Carol II),suffered from priapism . That s why,both of them were insclaved by two women who had some sexual skils.And Bertie was a stutterer, like out king Michael of Romania, who was his nephew. And they look alike. Same dinastic family, same problems. I really admire George VI,aș I admire out Michael I. They were both very strong characters, despite their stummering,very inteligent and so loving aș husbands and fathers.

[@Diana-0312]

why is it unbelievable??

[@pattimessenger6214]

Maybe unbelievable because he was born on the anniversary of Prince Albert’s death. The family was concerned about how Queen Victoria would feel toward the baby boy. They named him Albert, after his great grandfather. This is from Wikipedia: “Uncertain of how the Prince Consort's widow, Queen Victoria, would take the news of the birth, the Prince of Wales wrote to the Duke of York that the Queen had been "rather distressed". Two days later, he wrote again: "I really think it would gratify her if you yourself proposed the name Albert to her."[4] The Queen was mollified by the proposal to name the new baby Albert, and wrote to the Duchess of York: "I am all impatience to see the new one, born on such a sad day but rather more dear to me, especially as he will be called by that dear name which is a byword for all that is great and good”

@@sabrinadupont2017 He was a much loved member of the family. He had epilepsy, and most likely because of the frequent seizures, had developmental problems. He lived in the country close to his grandmother, Queen Alexandra. She had a garden bed made for him which he enjoyed planting flowers in every time he came. He had friends he played with. He had the mind of a small child, even as he grew older. He was not able to function well or understand what was going on much at official occasions. In the country, he was able to have fun with his pets and friends and didn't have to go to official events. His last day was happy, spent going for a long walk with his big sister Mary. He was buried close to where he lived much of his life, very close to his late uncle, by the way. Do you criticize that Prince Alexander John, George V's baby brother, was buried in the Sandringham cemetery too? Or is that okay?

@@SR-iy4gg Don't be mad at me. His story is so sad. For me even if he had seizure, he could be with his family. He could be in the palace with them but not in public representation or responsabilité but It's not a reason to hiding him. He could have friends but a child needs to be with his parents, brothers and sister... Even if they visited him, it's not the same thing, only visits. When you hear that one of his brothers told about him in a letter, It's just horrible and heartless. Sorry but this is my opinion.

It wasnt until her uncle abdicated that when she was age 12 her father became King. He was 41 years old when he took the throne. 41 years old with a 12 year old. Vs. a 25 year old with toddlers! In contrast her own children Anne and Charles were 5 and 3 at the time when she became Queen.

It's so evident that Almighty God chose this beautiful family to rule over GB. ( conceding the events)

King George found his love in Elizabeth and she supported him all though their married life. Their prepared Elizabeth ll to become Queen.They saw their country through WWII.

Nobody should be cursed with a father like George V.

Edward was not the Eldest child of Queen Victoria, that was Victoria (Vicky) Empress of Prussia. Edward was the second child but Eldest son.

[@caroljimpeale5911]

The descriptions in the beginning are contradicted by the historical record. George V had a strong sense of duty that he tried to pass to his sons but was no more "cruel" or distant than the average upper class British father of the times. He was also known to be enraptured with his grandchildren, particularly Elizabeth and Margaret.

Not sure about this. George WAS a pretty terrible father. Fathers in that time were strict, but he could actually be cruel, there's a difference. He did have good qualities though, to be sure. He was an exemplary monarch.

Hard to follow, Edward VIII, David Duke of Windsor, abdicated making his brother George King

I think the queen mum was stunning very beautiful lady. They al are. It's like a different world back then I'd love to live in those times ❤

In my opinion they are the only crowned royals to be remembered to this day, (besides being parents of Elizabeth II) but precisely in their amazing life ... She in her longevity and he for the his short and important life! Who managed the face of her as her wife, in the Olympus of immortality and legendary ...

The Queen mum does have a French look to her.

+Juanita Richards Your comment is less than complete. If you read "Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother the official biography" by William Shawcross and the published collection of her letters you will learn why she took so long to accept The Duke of York's proposal. By the time of their formal engagement they adored each other and this continued for the rest of their lives, as every photograph clearly shows.

Elizabeth Bowes Lyon was desperate to marry the Prince of Wales, an announcement appeared in the Inverness paper but he had no feeling for her and suggested she set her designs on his brother.

@@esclarmonde1024 There is absolutely no evidence for this. Produce the paper. Produce any evidence. You can't because it's not a true story.
