Oh…I see 🙁

I has no clue what she was like as a person, but she was an attractive young lady, she came from a noble house, and she didn’t have what was euphemistically referred to as „a past“. Otherwise, the heir to the throne could not have married her, right?

So she seemed to tick all the right boxes. Still, she didn’t seem to realize the enormous responsibility one gets when marrying the heir to the throne. A queen is supposed to serve the Realm and the Monarchy, as surely as her husband, the King. It seems that she simply wasn’t willing to accept this commitment. Or she didn’t realize it…

Yes, and I had no clue about the two grandmothers and their acquaintance…

I have been crazy about ALL European & Brit ROYAL famiklies, since I was 8 1/2 and my mother gave me her childhood books to read ( THE HISTORY OF THE ROYAL FAMILIES OF EUROPE ) when I didn't have a new book to read, one day. And that started it all! LOL

I have been reading about this topic ever since then. And, because I NEVER liked Di, have a ton of books about her, And now, I watch quite a few different Brit content creators on YouTube. Actually, when I started watching Lady Colin Campbell's vidioes, I didn't realize that I had read/own quiet a few of her books. hehehehehe

So yes, I know this stuff COLD!

And I'm also a BIG fan of Sir Winston Churchill, have read many of his books, including the ones about his ancestors...the FIRST Duke & Duchess of Marlborough who WERE related to the Spencer family.

If I have piqued your interest, with my few posted facts, and want more, there ARE many really great books available.
