SUMMARY OF FOUR FAMOUS COUPLES (Burlington Books) - QUEEN VICTORIA AND PRINCE ALBERT Queen Victoria lived a childhood full of rules and prohibitions and under the constant supervision of her mother and John Conroy, her manipulative secretary. Since she was born, she was already destined to marry with her younger cousin, Albert. The first time they met, she was just 17 years old and the truth is that she was very disappointed to him. She thought he was very pale, introverted, frail, and weak. A month after her 18th birthday, Victoria received news that her uncle, King William IV, had died and she would take her place as monarch of Great Britain and Ireland. At first, Victoria didn't like the idea of marrying anyone, but after Lord Melbourne's insistence on the subject she decided to see Albert again. Victoria was surprised by her beauty and beautiful blue eyes. She liked her so much that she proposed him marriage. After the wedding, they moved to Buckingham Palace, leaving John Conroy behind. Albert helped Victoria to reconcile with her mother and to be in her side in her last days. Everything that Victoria didn't like the idea of having to hand over her royal duties to Albert from her, she got pregnant nine times.
