Princess Charlotte, George IV's daughter
Luc:
If you go to that site, you can look into the book. Warning: it is in Dutch! If you want some translation, I will try.
But how was her relationship with her father and her grandparents ? Did they hate Charlotte ?
Luc:
Charlotte said about her mother: "My mother was bad, but she wouldn't have been so bad if my father wasn't much more bad."
trentk80:
I'd like to know what her relationship was like with her grandmother, Queen Charlotte. Does anybody know?
Prince_Christopher:
I think Charlotte must have been well aware of her parents' shortcomings early on. That in itself was indicitive of her character. I think she was highly spoiled, probably by her grandmother more than anyone. Her father considered her a nuisance, even though he loved her, and once she reached adulthood was eager to get her off his hands.
Luc:
I read in an article:
"Charlotte is a capricious, neglected girl, grown up without family, friends or discipline. Despite all quarrels and hatred, she grew up in a bright and sensitive child. She is also nervous and exuberant. That causes her in problems with her family; they think that only 'royal dignity' is the right attitude for a future queen."
By whom Charlotte was brought up ? In no case by her parents...
