Queen Victoria: History & Facial Reconstructions Revealed | Royalty Now

Queen Victoria and her consort Albert have one of the most fascinating stories in English history. Victoria came to the throne at only 18, after a sheltered childhood. The handsome Albert of Saxe Coburg was an instant attraction for Victoria, who admired his kindness and intellect. With Victoria’s power and Albert’s cunning, the two created a more technologically advanced England. Sadly, Albert died at the young age of 42, leaving Victoria with 9 children and deep in mourning. England, growing to the height of its size, still flourished despite a withdrawn Queen. Today, we’ll revisit the tragic love story, and of course talk about what Victoria and Albert really looked like, along with re-creations of them young, before photography.
