DH [22] Principe Tommaso Antonio Donato, Prince 'Thomas' of Venice [wavy red hair, blue eyes]
Princess Anne, the only (legitimate) child of and heir apparent to King Alfred V of England, has married Prince Thomas of Venice, fourth son of Doge Giovanni Donato of Venice. All English citizens -- both noble and peasant alike -- are less-than-thrilled to have both a female heir to the crown and to have her married to the landless son of a "rich commoner," but King Alfred insisted upon the alliance.

A healthy baby girl has been born to Princess Anne and Prince Thomas. The country had been hoping for a boy, who would obviously be a more suitable heir to the throne than the Crown Princess, but they have all been disappointed by the birth of Princess Maud.
Anne and Tommaso are delighted with their new daughter, no matter the opinion of the rest of the country. Maud and Katherine were both names belonging to Anne's mother, the late Queen Maud, and Wilhelmina is after Tommaso's German mother.

Peasants stormed Pembroke Castle, demanding that King Alfred name his cousin, Duke Edward Pembroke of Cornwall, his successor instead of Princess Anne. However, the guards of the castle were able to keep the peasants at bay, so no harm was done to the family and no change was made to the line of succession. It's rumored that Duke Edward and his advisors had something to do with this small rebellion, but there has been no definitive proof of such treason...yet.
