The King Who gave up His Throne for a Woman
Показать описание
On December 11, 1936, Edward VIII (1894-1972), king of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and Emperor of India (January 20-December 11, 1936) abdicated the throne for a woman he loved –an American, Wallis Warfield Simpson (1896-1986), who was then married to her second husband, Ernest Aldrich Simpson (1897–1958), a London shipping broker.
However, the process was a long, arduous one that nearly sparked a constitutional crisis in Britain and of course, changed the course of the British monarchy.
So, why would a King of the British Empire, one of the greatest empires in modern history, abandon his crown and throne for a woman? This is the full story. #HistoryVille #EdwardVIII
