of her uncle, William IV, in 1837. Happy to escape an overprotective upbringing by her mother and Sir John Conroy, controller of her mother's household (Victoria's father, Edward, Duke of Kent, had died when she was eight months old), Victoria took on her responsibilities with enthusiasm. Guided initially by Lord Melbourne the first of many able Prime Ministers she received support and advice from her husband Prince Albert, whom she married in 1840.

When Victoria came to the throne she was known for her honesty and belief in her own judgement, a determination to have her own way and streak of obstinacy in her makeup. At the same time, she seemed to need advice and support of an almost paternal nature.

Between 1840 and 1857, Queen Victoria gave birth to nine children. Three of them died before their mother. Her eldest favourite daughter Vicky only just outlived her, dying six months after her mother in July 1901. The last surviving child of Victoria, Beatrice, died in 1944.

When Albert died in 1861, Victoria was prostrated with grief, withdrew from public life and remained in mourning so Jong there were calls for the ending of the monarchy.

She wore funeral black for the rest of her life, in respect for his memory.

It took her 13 years to return to public life. She emerged from mourning in 1874 encouraged by her family, friends and the newly-elected Prime Minister, Disraeli. He knew how to deal with the Queen.

For this Disraeli was created Earl of Beaconsfield. The Queen fully
