My family moved from England to the USA in 1850, and they were commoners, but they were always loyal to Crown. My grandmother was the one who said I should never drink tea unless it's in a pot with a cup and saucer. That may not sound like much now, but she was teaching me the difference between British tradition and that of the USA. I'm a loyal citizen of my country, but I am also loyal to Queen Elizabeth and what she says. Georgia was the last English colony, and in my beloved Savannah you will often see the American flag flying with Union Jack beside it. Four of the books I've written are about the UK, and nobility. Few people read those books today, but I thoroughly enjoy reading them often.

Those who don't like history seem to think it's all about dates and places and battles. But to me, history is about people, what they felt, and why they did the things they did.

That's a beautiful friendship Queen Victoria had with Servant Brown. He would not have disrespected her because he was below her status and had friendship respect for Queen Victoria and probably knew the consequence if he had more than a friendship relationship with her. He respected and honored her and just wanted to be her friend servant which she needed to bring her out of her Widowhood mourning for Albert. That respect is shown when he felt sorrowful for Queen Victoria and her love for Albert when she and Brown attended a memorial of Albert. That's how deeply he respected them both. My great grandfather Kurupo Tareha was knighted by Queen Victoria and he received a sword for his attendance and a large picture of her Coronation which has now been lost among the family somewhere. He traveled from New Zealand to England by ship in those days. I think one of the family has the sword. Wonderful story thank you for sharing. So Be It!!!

When I was young, I had an elderly neighbour who was an office worker in central London in the 1890s. She used to see Queen Victoria fairly often in her carriage; presumably travelling to visit another palace. She would have a couple of footmen and an escort of two horsemen. Victoria was not as reclusive as sometimes suggested. As a little boy, I was fascinated by my neighbour's stories of those times.

That means, that anyone can go and see what I found, that a lot of your "facts" aren't facts at all, but disproven propaganda. Here was my biggest clue that I needed to check out what you were claiming. You said slavery went on in England until 1900! Everyone in the Western world knows THAT is BS to the highest order. England had abolished slavery even BEFORE America did....and even in America, slavery was abolished BEFORE 1900.

Most of what I’ve watched has talked about their infatuation with each other & apparently, also having a great sex life, lol. It’s interesting, as before she met Albert, she relished her freedom, didn’t think she would like him much - or anyone for that matter -, then fell in love with him at first sight without expecting to, became codependent to him & then depressed mourning the entire rest of her life! So much so, that she resented some of her daughters finding happiness? There is some level of narcissism going on here, but not to the full extent, because diagnosed narcs don’t mourn relationships or losing partners. She must have been mentally & emotionally unstable to some extent, especially considering she didn’t really like pregnancy or babies in general, yet had no problem using them as emotional crutches

[@jjh2456]

Co-dependent is the best way to put it. She loved him so much, but when he died she just didn’t know what to do with herself…even though she was the queen. One thing about her relationship with her children, it is said that she was undiagnosed with post partum depression and when you think about it makes sense given how her relationship was described with them.

[@celissewillis9399]

@@jjh2456 Yes, years of Codependency, control, manipulation then Separation anxiety, followed by what seems like a decent into clinical depression? I know this behavior all too well, having been a caretaker who lived with 1 who was 70. It’s absolutely draining. It brings the energy of the entire house down, even the property & it’s a breath of fresh air - like night & day! - to escape being around them on a regular basis. It’s no wonder that most of her children wanted to be free of her; I witnessed this too as a caretaker & it’s not something you can judge, because I know we’re expected to want to care for our parents as they grow older, but I feel like when you have an aging parent who is mentally &/or emotionally unstable, people find all sorts of ways to deal with it, or not. I feel for the kids, because they feel stuck wanting to do “the right thing”, yet they grow to have an underlying, if not overtly obvious, resentment towards that parent for being how they are. It’s hard to be supportive of someone when they use their depression as a crutch, use those around them to further validate the crutch, & don’t take support or help to make changes for their wellbeing. It ultimately drives people away. For Victoria being in the position of being a queen, seeing her own grief as valid & expecting others to join in where they couldn’t just say “NO”, that’s an obscene amount of control & manipulative behavior going on. She went through it herself & then she ultimately ended up doing it to others. A very obvious pattern of repetition. It’s beyond unhealthy to expect others to drown in grief “with” you, because you are upset. It’s forced codependency. It’s not like these patterns of mental & emotional manipulation & instability isn’t blatantly apparent through many royal bloodlines & it can definitely take another level of dangerous toxicity when it involves someone in a position of power.

[@Bessie66]

I totally agree

[@virginiasoskin9082]

Her children got SO tired of her constant life in mourning. And she was appalled and offended at this, and expected them to be just as mournful as she was -- for DECADES. Today she would do talk therapy and get meds to bring her out of her depression. But when you think about it, she missed both Albert's physical presence but also, he had done so much of the work of the monarchy while she was having 9 babies. Now it all fell into HER lap and she must have been shocked and angry about that. I also do not find it odd that she did not like babies. She grew up with no brothers or sisters so there were no babies with which she grew up, so babies were a complete mystery to her. I think the idea of birth was disgusting to her -- all that bodily fluid and labor. She loved it when she was finally given ether in her later births. Nowadays girls live in families with younger siblings, take Red Cross babysitting certification lessons, and babysit their relatives and neighbors. From what I have read of Eleanor Roosevelt, she was also a poor mother because, again, she grew up with no large family around her except for Uncle Theodore's, and she was shy and not physically daring, so I think his kids rather frightened her. She lived with her eccentric grandmother with mentally crazy aunts and uncles. She never had parenting training either and in both cases, they were of upper class families and were expected to turn their babies over to nannies and nurses. Victoria was horrified when one of her daughters was going to breastfeed her baby. Nowadays we consider it the best nutritionally, most convenient method for feeding an infant. All in all, I am glad I live now. Health care was pretty bad in the Victorian era.

[@Chuck0856]

A woman who dressed in black in mourning for over 50 years for her husband would hardly have had a affair. It would have been tantamount to adultery in her mind.

[@kathypiazza7228]

As a widow myself I agree. Thank you.

[@joebloggs619]

She was just a very grief stricken woman who lost the most important human inher life. He couldnever be replaced but the humble devoted man servant, John Brown gave her the bit of emotional comfort and relief she needed from the prison ofher femalegrief over theloss of the one and onlyman she truly did love and devoted her entire femaleness and life to adoring. I thinkshe has been very unfairlyjudged as a woman. Shewas no dumb, submissive female doormat types. She was actually quite smart, attractive and wielded a more feminine kind of power, as a wife and mother who happened to also be a monarch, though one gets the feeling that, if she had her choice, she would have rather chosen to be just a woman who married a man sheloved and lived inher own native land, not a foreign one, whereshe was expected to bethe queen, live in the city etc. And just have some kids, raise these right. But, back then, ifyou were born aristocratic, you typically had no choice about which country you were expectedto live in, whether you liked it or not... I once sawanold European painting depicting a very sad aristocraticwoman whose marriage to a foreign prince had been arranged, as they often were, with the young couple getting no say inwho they hadto marry,like poor Marie Antoinette of Germany who had to marry a French king. ... The painting depicted this sad well bred lonely woman kissing thesoil of her own beloved homeland, knowing she would never see it again, as she had to be married to a foreigner. Being ofEuropean immigrant background, this picture nearly made me cry,it was so sad...Itmust have been so heart wrenching and even downright terrifying because there were often wars across principalities and kings, princess etcback then actually weremore than figureheads performing opening ceremonies and such decorous roles. They actually took up arms andlead the battles, risking theirlives to defend theircountries. It would have been hard enough to do this as a man, expected and trained to be a brave warrior. But, how much harder wouldit have been ifyou were a female monarch who coppedthe big toughjobof leading the country intimes of political turmoil, wars etc?!? As some ofthese queens had nochoice but to do because they were"next in line" for this onerous leadership role, whether they wanted it ornot. But they would have been ill prepared for it, raised as refined, delicate aristocratic "ladies", not exposed to thr realities ofpower struggles,politics, Machiavelleanism that often accompanies these etc. You'd be on a pretty steep leaning curve back then, ifyou aspired to be a feminist fighting to grab the top leadership role. For starters, you couldn't just try and "go for it". It was either your divine right to have it ornot. It was conferred on you. You could not just grab the crown and stick it onyour head or rock up to the boss withyourbrilliant resume and explain why you are the best applicant for the kob,or do a bit ofpretty dodgy "networking" and pull a few strings to get into power. So, is itany wonder that some queens wouldhave ratheravoided thatleadership role, in favour of being just normal housewives and mothers. And,ofthe ones who did accept it as inevitable or desirable,like Queen Elizabeth 1, they saw the wisdom of remaining free ofany interfering husband and other family burdens eg kids to worry about. It was hard enough just trying tofocus on doing the big job they couldnot simply dump whenit allgot too hard tocope with the jome/work balance. Like moderncareer women withfamilies now have thechoice of doing iftheycan no longercope with their jobs. So, in a sense, I thinktheseseemingly unliberated, weak, fragilelooking past queens and aristocratic womeninleadership roles or as role models,had muchmore female strength and mental toughness,intelligence etc thanmodern feminists give them credit for. And I verymuch doubtthat most current era feminists wouldhavesurvived some ofthe trials some of these earlier era queens endured eg Queen Elizabeth 1, who even did a stint inprison, at the Tower Of London. Maybe Pauline Hanson, Aussiepolitical leader... Shedid a stint inthe slammer forher unpopular political views... But,no others of this era, thatI know of...

As to her Life in the Highlands books, bound in green, those green bindings in that era may have a good bit of arsenic in them. Do not handle them too often and wash your hands afterward. Arsenic was used for green dyes in wallpapers too. People would get ill in their shut up Victorian homes with arsenic-ridden wallpapers and other things with green dyes in them. Then they would go to the seaside for the cure and would begin to feel better, so naturally, doctors of the era thought sea air was ideal and curative. Then they would return home in autumn and get sick again from the arsenic in their homes. Kind of crazy to think that this was the case, but it was.

I didn't create Jim Crow laws, predatory banking institutions, or neoliberalism, and I certainly didn't wage foreign wars or even supported them. I can't take credit for what whites did in the past, any more than I can take credit for what genetic qualities I have. The only thing any of us did, at least those of us who are not racist and hateful, is inherit a legacy of violence and oppression, without our consent.

The Queen was always jealous of how Albert loved Vicky and she never let her come home. She had a cruel streak. Vicky hated the German castle and said it was cold and draughty.
