Description

Princess Charlotte of Wales

Charlotte was the only daughter of the ill-fated marriage between George IV of the United Kingdom (then Prince of Wales) and Caroline of Brunswick.
Her death caused a dynastic succession crisis, which forced her uncles to get royalty wives to obtain offspring. One of them, Edward, Duke of Kent, was the father of Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom, also Empress of India.

As Charlotte entered her teenage years, members of the Court considered her behaviour undignified. Lady de Clifford complained about Charlotte's allowing her ankle-length underdrawers to show. Lady Charlotte Bury, a lady-in-waiting to Caroline and a diarist whose writings have survived, described the Princess as a "fine piece of flesh and blood" who had a candid manner and rarely chose to "put on dignity". Her father was proud of her horsemanship. She was fond of Mozart and Haydn, and she identified with the character of Marianne in Sense and Sensibility.
