"Portrait of Sophia Frederika Mathilda, Princess of WĆ¼rttemberg" painted around 1861 by Franz Xaver Winterhalter
Brief background on this amazing Queen š
Sophie of WĆ¼rttemberg (1818ā1877) was a highly educated and progressive queen consort of the Netherlands, married to King William III. Born a German princess, she was given an exceptional education for a woman of her time, studying literature, philosophy, and history. Known for her sharp intellect and liberal ideals, Sophie was nicknamed āla reine rougeā or āThe Red Queen.ā Her marriage to William III was deeply unhappy, marked by his infidelity and volatile temper. In 1855, they formally separated while remaining king and queen, living mostly apart. Despite her personal struggles, she thrived intellectually, maintaining correspondence with leading thinkers like Ernest Renan and Lord Clarendon, which gave her an influential voice in 19th-century political and intellectual circles.
As queen, Sophie championed progressive causes far ahead of her time. She supported education for women and the mentally challenged, became the patron of the Netherlandsā first womenās rights organization in 1871, and even funded early animal protection societies. Fascinated by new ideas, she was experimental, even hosting a sĆ©ance at the royal palace, a reflection of the 19th-century craze for spiritualism. When she died in 1877, Sophie made a symbolic final statement by being buried in her wedding dress, saying that her true life had ended the day she married William. Though often overshadowed by her tumultuous marriage, Sophie is remembered today as a forward-thinking and independent queen who left a lasting mark on Dutch history.

I must say, it says a lot about her marriage that she wanted to be burried in her wedding dress because that was the day she died. I think she would've thrived in todays society in the Netherlands!

Queen Sophia of WĆ¼rttemberg and King William III of Netherlands are cousins. She was liberal and intellectual, while he dreamed of a return to absolute monarchy and hated intellectuals and scientists.
The big dispute between them was about the education of their children (they had 3 sons, 2 of whom reached adulthood).
Queen Sophia wanted the princes have an enlightened elite education, while the King wanted to send them to military schools (William was a militarist and believed he understood everything about war).
There was also a great incompatibility of personality between the king and queen.

She sounds like such a lovely beautiful soul, on inside and out ā¤

Ironically, after her death (and the death of the two children who made it to adulthood) her now elderly husband remarried to Emma of Walden-Pyrmont eager to have another son, even going as far as to promising paying a large sum for each live child born to Emmaā¦ Only for them to have a single daughter, Wilhelmina, who would become the first of a long line of queens of the Netherlands that remains today. The actual queenās successor is her son, but he has three daughters himself!

Some arranged marriages were not happy. Not a man she chose. How sad.

In her defence, her husband was very uncouth, had many many mistresses, and as you said, had no appreciation for her. While she doted on her sons, he wanted to make militaire men of them. He disagreed so much with his oldest son, that this son did live a dissolute life in paris, dying young.
But to say the truth, she could be very cutting and full of critique. Her journal is entertaining, but not the writing of a sweet, retiring woman. I was much entertained reading parts of it. Also, she contributed beautiful jewels to the house of Orange jewel collection. For instance the stars she is wearing in her tiara, were much used by all our queens. Maxima had stars in her wedding tiara, and Amalia had stars in her tiara when in Denmark for the party for the Danish crown prince. And to end this little story, the jewels are not the personal possesion of any member of the RF. The are in the house collection and many of the royal family women can make use of them. Including the sisters if princess Beatrix and their daughters (in law).

Her husband was called king gorilla, he was rude and cruel.

Europeans and their diaspora are the only real progressives.

Living in luxury and privilege which she owed to her marriage but then complaining about it. Alright.
