William See also:Ferdinand, See also:duke of See also:Brunswick-Wcilfenbuttel, was See also:born on the 17th of May 1768. She was brought up with great strictness, and her See also:education did not See also:fit her well for her subsequent station in See also:life. In 1795 she was married to the then See also:prince of See also:Wales (see GEORGE IV.), who disliked her and separated from her after the See also:birth of a daughter in See also:January 1796. The princess resided at See also:Blackheath; and as she was thought to have been badly treated by her profligate See also:husband, the sympathies of the See also:people were strongly in her favour. About 1806 reports reflecting on her conduct were circulated so openly that it was deemed necessary for a See also:commission to inquire into the circumstances. The princess was acquitted of any serious See also:fault, but variousimproprieties in her conduct were pointed out and censured. In 1814. she See also:left See also:England and travelled on the See also:continent, residing principally in See also:Italy. On the See also:accession of George in 1820, orders were given that the See also:English ambassadors should prevent the recognition of the princess as queen at any See also:foreign See also:court. Her name also was formally omitted from the See also:liturgy. These acts stirred up a strong feeling in favour of the princess among the English people generally; and she at once made arrangements for returning to England and claiming her rights. She rejected a proposal that she should receive an See also:annuity of £50,00o a See also:year on See also:condition of renouncing her See also:title and remaining abroad. Further efforts at See also:compromise proved unavailing; Caroline arrived in England on the 6th of See also:June, and one See also:month later a See also:bill to dissolve her See also:marriage with the See also:- KING
