Caroline of Brunswick part 1

In this episode of Queens Podcast, we dive into the chaotic early life of Caroline of Brunswick, the future Princess of Wales and one of the most controversial royal figures of the Regency era. Raised in isolation in the Duchy of Brunswick, Caroline’s childhood was anything but typical—marked by family dysfunction, social restriction, and a deep craving for attention that would follow her into adulthood. But everything changes when she’s chosen to marry her cousin, George IV, the scandal-prone Prince of Wales. From a disastrous first meeting to a wedding day filled with drunken chaos, this royal marriage starts off on the worst possible foot. If you love royal history, scandals, and messy marriages, this is just the beginning. Time stamps: Sources: For this one, I'm taking stories and research from Ann Foster's book Rebel of the Regency I also really enjoyed Even The Royals 2 episodes on Caroline Queens podcast is part of Airwave Media podcast network.
