Origin

Victoria was born in Kensington Palace, the daughter of Prince Edward, who was fourth in line for the throne. Victoria herself was fifth in line for the throne at the time of her birth. In 1820 both her father and her grandfather died, placing her uncle George IV on the throne and putting her third in line behind her surviving uncles. Victoria was taught throughout her childhood by private tutors, and heavily isolated by her mother, the Duchess, and her mother's comptroller Sir John Conroy, who wished to keep Victoria weak and under her control. The Duchess was disgusted by the sexual impropriety running rampant in the royal family, and made efforts to ensure her daughter would never be tied in with similar scandals. It has been suggested this led to the development of the strict Victorian morality that would later characterize her rule.
