- William is the oldest son of the late King Edward and his wife Queen Louise and has 5 younger siblings (Henry, Adelaide, Leopold, Caroline & Augusta). When he turned 23 his parents searched a fitting bride for him and came across Princess Charlotte from a neighboring kingdom. To secure peace and growing friendship between the two countries the parents decided to marry the two. William, who is a very independent young man, wasn't really pleased at first about getting married, but after meeting Charlotte for the first time the prospect of marrying this young, beautiful girl wasn't as bad anymore and he even started to fall in love with her over time. About a year later the two were married and moved in their own palace. All seemed well and the King & Queen were hoping for grandchildren soon, when King Edward suddenly fell ill and died soon after from a yet unknown desease. The whole kingdom was mourning and William at age 25 became King, he himself was not really prepared for this task since he thought that he still has many years until his father would pass away. At the same time his wife Charlotte, now Queen, found out that she was expecting the couples first child, both were very happy but at the same time were scared to take on two such important jobs: as leaders of an entire kingdom and as parents to a small child.
Recently their little girl was born and they named her Beatrice Catharine Maud Alexandra. Beatrice after an ancestor back from ancient times, who was the daughter of one of the first kings of the Brown family. Catharine after the second name of William's youngest sister Augusta, who is one of the godparents of the little princess, along with Princess Maud, older sister of Queen Charlotte, William's uncle Christian, ruler of another neighbouring country and William's favourite cousin Feodora-Alexandra, daughter of King Christian. Since the army of the kingdom has just fought a war against an enemy and won, Queen Mother Louise suggested to let all members of the army become additional godfathers to little Princess Beatrice, and idea that the royal couple gladly accepted.
