    I was pleasantly surprised when I realised that today wasn't our regular video premier day. Thank you both for this educational video as well as for the surprise. I've read a little about Queen Maria of Parma but I knew nothing about her husband before watching this video. I must also praise your choice of images used in the video. The paintings are beautiful and the clothes depicted in the paintings are dazzling.

Just click on the dots on the far right under the video window and you will see the option to give a monetary thanks. Thank you, thank you! Edited to add: Is that a pacifier in baby Charles' hand in the painting?

      Some say he's not even his father. On her deathbed, Maria Luisa admitted that none of their children were his. She had had multiple affairs throughout their marriage and frankly I do believe that at least the majority of their offspring was illegitimate.

    After Godoy fell out of favor the Queen took a new favorite named Manuel Mayo a friend of Simon Bolivar's two maternal uncles Esteban and Pedro Palasios and a roommate to Esteban Palasios. Some time after that Manuel Mayo lost the Queen's favor (and his place in her bed).Godoy returned to power again.

    Carlos IV was a good and kind man, but weak and eager to please, whose influence on his son, Fernando VII, was making the latter into a cold, serious, dispassionate and brutal man who was obsessed with proving he wasn't a pushover like his father.

    Great job with another fantastic video. Charles is A improvement over his son. On the subject of his son; Ferdinand seventh of Spain; he could have had more children IF he had married someone outside of the immediate family. But, King of France- what do you think about King Ferdinand Seventh 's wedding night to his third wife.
