Mary, Princess Royal and Countess of Harewood who dedicated herself to improving the lives of women,
Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester a stoic war hero
Prince George, Duke of Kent, an artistic bisexual tomcat
Prince John, a lonely boy who died tragically young.

Queen Victoria’s great-grand children, the children of King George V were a fascinating bunch. The two eldest brothers both took their turns on the throne. Edward VIII abdicated amid scandal because he wanted to marry a divorced woman, Wallis Simpson and because he never really wanted to be king anyway. He nearly toppled the British monarchy in the process. His younger brother picked up the pieces and became King George VI. He was a shy man with a stutter but he and his admirable wife, Elizabeth tirelessly boosted moral during WWII and became heroes to their people. Let’s meet them...

Throughout history, across cultures and in every walk of life, there have always been people whose identity went beyond the two-gender mold. And those who do not fit the gender assigned to them at birth. Though people in the past did not often have the concepts, terminology or relative freedom we have today, there are many notable historic figures whom historians speculate were likely transgender or non-binary.

Fans of the hit show Outlander or of Scottish history in general have likely heard of Bonnie Prince Charlie, the Battle of Culloden and the Jacobite succession. This 18th century feud between members of the British royal family over the throne led to a massacre of Scotsman and the outlaw of highland culture. But who are the Jacobites, Why did they try to take the throne and who do their supporters believe should be the Monarch of the United Kingdom today?

Since then there have been 7 women who have held the title of Princess Royal; Mary, Anne, Charlotte, Victoria, Louise, Mary and Anne. Let’s meet them and see how the lives and roles of a Princess Royal have evolved over 400 years.

Queen Victoria’s eldest son and heir was a man of great appetites. He loved food, he loved drink and he loved women. Dirty Bertie’s licentiousness flew in the face of his mother’s regime of uptight morality. The jolly Prince of wales was so popular with the ladies that he became known as Edward the Caresser. He had more than 55 mistresses, some noble society ladies, some glamorous actresses, some Persian sex workers and even a sharp-tongued chef. Here are the stories of just a handful of the many colorful mistresses of King Edward VII:
Nellie Clifden
Hortense Schneider
Catherine Walters
Lady Susan Vane-Tempest
Jennie Jerome Spencer-Churchill
Lady Harriet Mordaunt
Patsy Cornwallis-West
Parisian Sex Workers
Lillie Langtry
Sarah Bernhardt
Daisy Greville, Countess of Warwick
Agustina del Carmen Otero
Alice Keppel
Rosa Lewis
