Queen Charlotte of Great Britain and Ireland

Queen Charlotte was hand-picked King George 3rd to be his Queen, and she proved to be a good choice. Her steady sense of duty helped keep the Kingdom together when her husband was incapacitated and her subjects were restless. Recently made more famous thanks to the series ‘Bridgerton’ Charlotte was not unlike her character on the show - dignified and keen on protocol. However she loved her husband and was highly distressed at his ongoing illness.Sources/Further ReadingCurzon, Catherine: The Real Queen Charlotte- Inside the Real Bridgerton CourtHadlow, Janice: The Strangest Family - the private lives of George 3rd, Queen Charlotte and the HanoveriansWorsley, Lucy: Courtiers, the Secret History of Kensington PalaceFinch, Barbara Clay: Lives of the Princesses of Wales https://archive.org/details/livesofprincesse02finc/page/284/mode/2upHistoric Royal Palaces: Queen Charlotte https://www.hrp.org.uk/kew-palace/history-and-stories/queen-charlotte/Wikipedia: Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charlotte_of_Mecklenburg-Strelitz Hosted on Acast.
