Edward Albert

The entire monarchy might've looked different if the King of England hadn't been in love with the married American socialite

A letter written by Edward, the Prince of Wales revealed how he helped his brother have "alone time" with a married woman by luring away her husband.

Dressed head-to-toe in white and aged in her thirties, the Queen Mother poses next to her husband, the Duke of York, on the deck of the royal yacht MHY Victoria and Albert in the 1930s.

Photograph of the Prince of Wales seated, three-quarters left, his left leg on his right; he leans forward slightly and looks at a dog sitting on floor in front of him, begging (dog out of focus); he points at dog with his right hand, his left hand on his lap. Painted backdrop with distant view of Windsor Castle.

The British monarchy, as an institution, has a huge vulnerability: its members keep falling in love. Such was the case with Edward VIII.
