His last mistress was Daisy. He was still seeing her even after she outed him as impotent. She is listed in his diaries. Maybe you can share especially the dates. Several of Edward's staff and friends wrote books and kept journals that they publish during Edward's lifetime or shortly...

69 years ago today Alice Keppel died.

A photograph or a facsimile of the letter will help clear things so there is no disagreement. The 1902 date just does not add up when trying to connect it to Alice. If Alice arrived by yacht at Cowes, it would have been listed in the papers and the names of her host or hostess. The Kaiser...

No you do not need to take my word. 1902 was the Coronation and Edward was still recuperating when he and Alexandra went to Cowes. There are descriptions of who Edward met at Cowes in the newspapers and magazines of the day.. I could not remember the publication to link to my post. There...

We are going to disagree. His last mistress was Daisy who he was still with until 1901 or 1902. Edward did not have as many as people claim. This is just lies and gossip. There is no evidence that Alexandra invited any of Edward's mistresses to Sandringham. None were invited to celebrate...

Is this source reliable? Are they adding to it to sell a story? I have read multiple versions of this quote. Some state the letter only states "K". Others have placed the date of the letter as 1895. Alice Keppel was not at Cowes in 1902. Could the "K' refer to Kaiser Wilhelm who regularly...

Someone hawking a book filled with lies. Maybe he should have done a bit of research to make his lies believable. The Keppels did not live in Portman Square from 1890s to 1920. Their first home is listed as 7 Haikin Street West. This was the home of Alice's mother. In 1893 Alice's mother...

Alice Keppel was one of the nicest people. She was kind hearted and sweet. Alice Keppel was not Edward's mistress. She was not the mistress of any man. Alice Keppel would never have been allowed to step foot into Sandringham if she had been Edward's mistress or anyone's mistress. It was...

I do not understand what was expected from the BRF? In 1981, she visited Wales with Charles and then a walk about at Christmas with the entire family.

Charles was supportive. Her staff was supportive. And not just for a few months. Behind the scene, QEQM and the BRF might have been supportive as were probably her family who were 'members' of the BRF 'team', like Diana's grandmother and great aunts. When did Diana do her first solo walk...

Thanks button being used to harass How do I disable the thanks button? A poster is using it to harass me. He is using both the PM and the thanks button.

:lol: She is in blue. The gloves are blue. Her other pair of gloves is black.

An innocent post hoping Camilla's grandmother is included in a biography about Camilla is turned into lesbian rumors and affairs. All the books written about Camilla reduce Sonia to one sentence. The discussion was about why the earlier years of Camilla's life deserve more than a few...

Here's confirmation that he attended Trinity. THE WAR LIST OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE 19141918 TRINITY COLLEGE 427 LUND,H. Capt., R.A.M.C. (2nd W. Gen. Hospital, T.F.) 1878 LUPTON, A. C. Capt., Yorkshire Hussars and Remount 1893 Service LUPTON, B. C. Capt., D. of Wellington's (W...

When and where?

Diana may have been 20 when she married but she was not 20 in 1988 or 1991.

How did you come to this conclusion? I was only hinting that they knew each other and might have been friends. But actually it was Violet that was originally Cynthia's friend. If it is the same Cynthia which it is a strong possibility.:lol:

This is where I strongly disagree. I think her life is extremely interesting and if a biography is thorough the events of her life and her family's would take several volumes. I agree that 90% will initially be looking for the 80s/90s but once they start reading a well written thorough book...

Peerage is much more reliable than Wikipedia. The Express is trying to connected Albert Spencer to Lionel Lupton and there is no evidence that the two men knew each other much less joined and fought together. That makes the story a piece of fiction. The DM and Telegraph stories from a few...

I think we might need to put this story in the fiction section.:lol: Albert Spencer is only listed as joining in 1917. Person Page Lionel Lupton died in 1916. Lupton is not listed as having died at Somme on peerage. Person Page Someone already updated Wikipedia based on the Express story...

The Duchess of Cornwall wore different brooches during the commemorations. She wore the poppy & cornflower brooch with the 9th/12th Lancers brooch during the Thiepval Memorial service...

A bit difficult when it keeps occurring. I think the real Camilla story is very interesting. It might not sell to the people who want to believe the juicy tidbits but if anyone wanted to read about the real Camilla they would find the real story much more interesting than the 80s and 90s...

so we are going there...:whistling: Charles would not have had gone to Camilla if Diana had been faithful.

This is just what I mean. This is just a very small part of her life. It is all about Charles. What about the suicides in her family and how they affected her and family? How about maybe the reason Camilla is afraid of flying is because a relative died in a plane crash? What about dealing...

The Bradford book is nothing but a hatchet job on Camilla and her family. It is nothing more than copies from other people's work. Interesting you would want to see this type of book. It is quite a nasty piece of work. The Brandreth book was quite inaccurate. Penny Junor is rumored to be...
