The Forbidden Engagement of the Prince of Wales: Lady Rosemary

Lady Rosemary Leveson Gower was born at Dunrobin Castle, nursed wounded soldiers in France, and was proposed to by the Prince of Wales. The King vetoed the marriage because of a blackmailing aunt and a bankrupt uncle, and the Prince never pursued an unmarried woman again. Twelve years later, Rosemary was dead at thirty six, her body found in a Kent orchard and identified only by her pearls.
