The wife of which king gave birth to a daughter who supposedly had an illegitimate child as a young girl?
Princess Sophia of the United Kingdom Princess Sophia of the United Kingdom (Sophia Matilda; 3 November 1777 – 27 May 1848) was the 12th child and 5th daughter of King George III and Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz. Sophia is perhaps best known for the rumours surrounding a supposed illegitimate child to which she gave birth as a young woman.
Bastard (law of England and Wales) A bastard (also historically called whoreson, although both of these terms have largely dropped from common usage) in the law of England and Wales is an illegitimate child, that is, one whose parents were not married at the time of his or her birth. Unlike in many other systems of law, there was previously no possibility of "post factum" legitimisation of a bastard. This situation was changed in 1926.
