Yesterday marked the one hundred twelfth anniversary of the
death of King Edward VII, the first-born son of Queen Victoria and Prince
Albert. “Bertie” as he was known was a
popular king, but a famously unfaithful husband. Queen Victoria always blamed her son for the
premature death of her beloved husband and often bemoaned the fact that the boy
was more interested in hunting deer and women than he was in learning the
skills needed to be king.
