      Yes i watch that episode last time in UA-cam, Wallis never stop writing her ex husband Ernest. You can see that she regret for divorcing him and end up unhappy with Prince Edward. This will happen to the Suxxex too if they will never divorce.

      ​@@MaryBradley-s3s Eh, it seems like they were both using each other. Edward thought she could be the excuse the country would accept for his abdication. He thought he could give up the responsibility he didn't want yet remain in a powerful position with the love of the country. He didn't expect that people would lose respect for him and see him for the selfish boy he was.

      Biographies say she was charming and had a way of making people feel flattered and important - the tragedy for her was that she couldn’t escape Edward and was stuck serving him for the rest of his life. Maybe that made her brittle - she was already probably pretty shallow, a social climber at heart.

      @@salomeprudhoe5471 My understanding is that Wallis still loved her husband. It's said her friend who usually made the King comfortable asked her to sub in while she was gone. Thing is Wallis encouraged a friend to do the same with her hubby and he fell in love with her and wanted a divorce.

    A note on names - Edward's full name was Edward Albert Christian George Andrew Patrick David - the last 4 being for the Patron Saints of the United Kingdom (England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales, respectively). He went by 'David' with his family and close friends. His only sister, The Countess Harewood, followed a similar pattern with her own name. Her full name was Victoria Alexandra Alice Mary, but of course, she went by Mary, which was given for her mother, The Queen. Nicknames have been very common in the British Royal Family, going back to Queen Victoria's reign.

    The big difference was that Edward was loved (sort of) by his wife. She doesn’t seem to have tried to be more “loved” than him. She didn’t walk in front of him and pretend to be royal. And with no internet, it was easy to keep his treachery unbeknown to the public of the day. Even in France, after the war, if they had known of his German friendships, they would have been crucified. But Churchill and the Queen agreed to have the records sealed for 50 years. These records have now come to life, but very few people under 40 are interested in history. So his reputation remains relatively intact. Harry is a whole different story ( same low morals and ethics), as the internet sleuths can reveal his lies almost as soon as he tells them. She is a far bigger liar, but he goes along with them because he is terrified of her. I also think he suffers from a need to be loved, and she love bombs him and he is pretty thick. But their end is coming soon, I think.

    I do understand your point and agree with your comparisons. I still think the ramifications were far different. Of course the H and M saga hasn’t completed its run, but what the Windsors did with their pre-war tour of Germany is horrible. Reading Churchill’s comments on them, he made them seem very sinister. Unless the Hollywood duo visits Russia, Belarus, Myanmar, or Somalia, their present vacation destinations aren’t having the same effect. Churchill wanted to avoid war, but saw it coming. I absolutely buy the theory that H. Promised he would restore Edward to the throne and possibly the new king of Europe. Edward’s vanity bought it. We will never know what deals Wallis made with those trysts in Germany. Wallis couldn’t have children, and even with a Morganatic marriage, Elizabeth would have eventually been on the throne. But aren’t we glad we didn’t have to wait?

    Queen Elizabeth (the Queen Mother) was ruthless when it came to Wallis. If only we had someone like her in the RF. MM wouldn't have even got a toenail through the door. There was nothing she wouldn't have done to protect the Monarchy. Alas, in this woke world we live in the RF are too scared to take a hard line. Image is more important than listening to the people. The drama has been going on now for eight years. The question over the legitimacy of the children? The now forgotten bullying claims? The threats in interviews? The shady actions of Archewell? Africa Parks? The list goes on and on. But then it's no surprise really. The rich and powerful can do what they like and get away with anything. Ain't life grand...

    I'm really surprised that so many people stopped watching at the point where you got into the historical stuff. That's the most interesting part for me!

      I LOVE history. Looking forward to LBP’s upcoming video(s) on Marie Antoinette. If I may, could she also do a series on the pretenders to the defunct French throne. I believe that there are 3 dynasties making claims to it. Thank you.

      @@norarivkis2513 Well, not all want to think deeply and differentiated. It's sad but people are free to choose how much they want to know, as at any times in history. As at any times we need urgently people like you who work for the truth and give us a chance to understand, whether all love it or not. Keep your niveau and keep on, please!!!!

      @@KR-ms6km Oh, that's entirely fair. It's not as if I don't have my times when I just want to watch something light, so if just showing up here for the tea is their thing, that's cool! I was just surprised there weren't also more people who liked the history enough to stick around for it, that's all.
