Please look at this website. It has informtion about Prince Albert-Originally posted by Josefine@Oct 26th, 2003 - 5:55 pm
Can someone post some fact about him....
Albert was the child of a broken home. His mother Louise, tired of her husband's affairs, had one of her own. She was banished by Albert's father (the hypocrite) and died shortly afterwards.
Albert was a skilled politician who helped Victoria rule her empire and restore respect to the throne, something which her Hanoverian relatives had squandered for many years. Victoria's seclusion after Albert's untimely death cost her some support from her subjects but her longevity and re-emergence into public undoubtedly helped restore their affection for the "old gal."
He was a very good consort to Victoria, and wasn't treated that kindly by the British people.
