Description: His Majesty King Edward VII (1841-1910) Reigned 1901-1910 Edward, known to his family as 'Bertie', was Queen Victoria's eldest son but she favored his brother Arthur. As a child he struggled academically and was given very few official duties. His exclusion from public duties also ensured that Prince Albert's position as the leading male royal figure was not compromised. After the death of Albert he was allowed to perform ceremonial duties but was still kept out of the running of the country. Following his marriage to Princess Alexandra of Denmark in 1863, he took up residence at Marlborough House, which became a centre of high society glamour, and devoted his time to sports and entertainment. He was 60 when he eventually succeeded his mother to the throne. His nine-year reign, from 1901 to 1910, is known as the Edwardian era. Despite remaining aloof from politics, his popularity increased during his reign, as Britain experienced expansion and prosperity. He also promoted a new alliance with France, known as the ‘Entente Cordiale’.
