      Due to the “need” for royalty to marry royalty the relationship between married royals was positively incestuous as often unhappy. Thank goodness that today’s royals can marry commoners who they actually love! This system caused so many physical and mental health problems within European royal families such as Hemophilia, insanity, unstable personalities etc. Queen Victoria passed on the Hemophilia gene to a son, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. In fact, the Hemophilia gene that she passed on to her posterity greatly affected world history. She was also known to have a terrible temper, would sulk when things didn’t go her way and had long depressive episodes.

      While I don’t know if she would’ve been any more normal if her father had lived longer, at least Princess Victoria and Conroy would most likely have been unable to have instituted the Kensington System which today would’ve landed both of them in jail for severe child abuse. The whole idea of royalty is so unhealthy in so many ways.

      I find Victoria's pregnancy excessively lucky, merely months after their mariage and considering the bad health of the Duke of Kent, (who would die shortly after Queen Victoria's birth) and the fact that he hadn't father a child with his last mistress of 27 years…🤔🤔

      Woo-hoo! A video from the Hanoverian/Victorian Era 😊 My favorite (after the Cousins War then Tudors of course…ok so like my 3rd favorite lol)
      Edit: Oh The Duchess of Kent was absolutely 'being comforted' by Comptroller Conroy

      You have made it sound like a love story. The Duke of Kent left his Mistress of 20 years solely to produce an heir. This was not a love match, are you joking?

      It makes you wonder how different things would have been if Princess Charlotte of Wales had survived and produced more heirs. The Royal Family would have been Saxe Coburg and Saalfield as opposed to Saxe Coburg and Goethe.

      Nice bio. of Queen Victoria.

      Have you thought about doing a video on Victoria's first cousins (legitimate, morganic, Illegitimate) uncles and their wives/mistresses?
      sons of the Georges who became elector of Hanover might be interesting. I suppose you could group them according to the aunt
      or uncle (Children of George III).

      Hmm … I wonder if the hemophilia arose spontaneously (that can happen) as Victoria and Albert were first cousins.
      I wonder if anyone has checked out Sir John Conroy's descendants or ancestors for hemophilia?
      I very much doubt if the BRF will give permission to acquire Victoria's, Albert's or Victoria's mother's DNA.
      I also don't think that the German families of Saxe-Coburg — et. al. want their ancestor's DNA taken.
