Saddest Royals

[EmpressRouge]

Which royal (past or present) had the saddest or most miserable life? :( Now, I don't mean just a tragically sad death (although that can be a factor), but he/she lived a miserable, lonely, sad life.

Here are my top choices:
Crown Princess Masako of Japan - gave up such a promising career only to be crushed by the Imperial Household Agency
Empress Elisabeth (Sissi) of Austria - tragic life and death hidden behind her great beauty.
Empress/Princess Soraya of Iran - La princesse aux yeux tristes ("the princess with the sad eyes") both of her great love stories ended sadly and tragically. Died in seclusion and loneliness.
The Hesse sisters in Russia:
Elisabeth Feodorovna (Ella), Grand Duchess Sergei - Devoted a homosexual husband only to see him assissinated. Pledged her life to religion and charity, but met a similar end like her husband. Could have prevented WWI and everything that followed if she didn't refuse Kaiser Wilhelm's earlier marriage proposal (but who can blame her)
Alexandra Feodorovna (Alix), last Tsarina of Russia - shunned by the adopted country she was devoted to. A happy family plagued by hemophilia she brought into the family. Unwisely relied on Rasputin for hope, but caused their ultimate grusome demise.

Most miserable royal:
Charles (Carlos) II, last Hapsburg King of Spain - poster child for the dangers of inbreeding. mentally and physically disabled and disfigured. could barely talk, walk, eat, or procreate. "By the last two years of his life, he was virtually helpless: he was completely lame, bald, deaf, nearly toothless, and almost blind; he was also prone to epileptic fits." (wikipedia)
