Re: The Queen Who Never Was.
I don't see that Edward actually gave anything up. Apart from the fact that he no longer had to carry out any 'duties' he still received a bloody good wage for the rest of his life. He had all the rewards without the work and was sill better off than most Brits at the time.Re: The Queen Who Never Was.
There was one thing he did want and couldn't get, he was desperate to get HRH for Wallis and his brother would not give it to him. If stories are correct then this was down to his wife Elizabeth (queen mum) she hated Wallis with a vengeance and despite her husband being King, I think she was the real boss and this was a nice bit of female bitchiness between her and Wallis. Pay Back.Re: The Queen Who Never Was.
