In ancient times, the status of women was low, and the status of female friends has been greatly improved, and today's women do not need to work hard when they are in love.
However, there have been some noble princesses in history who may still be treated unkindly by their husbands after marriage, such as Princess Alexandra of Denmark.
Alexandra was born in 1844 at the Danish Royal Palace, when her father, Christian, was an obscure prince who barely supported the family with a military income of £800 a year.
Despite not living in a wealthy life, Christian understood the importance of education and spirituality, and often invited Andersen to tell stories to his children. Fortunately, the king of Denmark was deceased, and Christian became the prince of Denmark because of his royal temperament, and became the next heir to the throne.
He paid more attention to the upbringing of children, especially Alexandra, who raised her to be a real princess. She was beautiful, elegant, and dignified, and was recognized as a top beauty in Europe at that time.
Queen Victoria favored 17-year-old Alexandra and hoped that she would become Prince Edward's wife and put all her hopes for her son's future. However, Prince Edward's life was too affluent for him to study.
He spent time with actresses at Oxford University and was unable to complete his studies. His father, Prince Albert, tried to persuade him, but died of typhoid fever two weeks later, much to Edward's deep guilt and guilt.
In order to atone for his sins, he kept to himself for a while. In 1861, Edward met Princess Alexandra through the introduction of his sister Princess Victoria.
At the suggestion of his mother, Victoria, he agreed to propose to Alexandra the following year, partly because of guilt for his father, and partly because he was deeply attracted to Alexandra's beauty.
In 1863, they were married at St. George's Chapel in Windsor, and their marriage lasted half a century.
Fairy tales always tell about the happy life of princes and princesses, however, Princess Alexandra failed to find the prince who could make her happy for the rest of her life. Although Edward had a beautiful wife, he did not change his ** uninhibitedness, but relied on his status as a prince to have an improper relationship with the married princes and noble wives and concubines.
For the next forty-five years, he remained obsessed with the relationship between socialites and actresses. Gradually, Alexandra saw Edward's true face, as if fulfilling the saying "There is always nothing to fear when you are favored".
Although she bore Edward six children, he still kept the red flag at home and the colorful flags fluttered outside. She was helpless, because she couldn't change his amorous nature, she could only learn to accept his countless women.
Women of that era could not easily divorce, not to mention that she was a princess and was burdened with peace and friendship between the two countries.
Alexandra has a high EQ and an excellent mentality. She shifted her attention to spending time with her children and her mother-in-law's family, like a beautiful flower blooming in the dust. In 1864, when war broke out between Denmark and Prussia, Alexandra supported her native Denmark, but her sister-in-law was the Princess of Prussia, and Queen Victoria sided with her.
However, Alexandra did not contradict her mother-in-law and sister-in-law over the issue of her position, and their relationship remained harmonious. This made Queen Victoria even more fond of her daughter-in-law, and often rewarded her with exquisite jewelry.
While helping the queen with court affairs, Alexandra also regularly participated in social events in high European society. If it's just about bringing in some fine jewelry and clothing, Alexandra's story might not be so compelling.
However, the pursuit of Internet celebrities by women in that era seemed a little brainless. Alexandra had an unsightly scar on her neck from surgery, so she created a dog strap necklace to cover the scar.
She didn't expect that this design would lead the fashion trend for more than 100 years. In addition, she limped because of the root cause of giving birth, but with her tenacity and perseverance, she became a rare role model for women.
In her later years, Alexandra, who suffered from hearing obstruction due to genetic diseases, gradually faded out of social interaction in order to relieve her pain. She began to devote herself to charity, hoping to help more people through her own efforts.
Unfortunately, Edward's early death hit her hard again, but she persevered and proved her kindness and love with her actions.
Although Alexandra married a prince who disregarded her family and endured his infidelity after marriage, she did not break down because of it and lived a more fulfilling life. Although her relationship with Edward seems uneventful, she has six considerate children together, and has a good relationship with her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, winning everyone's respect and praise.
Although her health is plagued by genetics and postpartum illnesses, she remains passionate about charity and is committed to helping those who are more vulnerable than her. Inside this beautiful woman, there may be a strong and kind giant.
