WHAT HAPPENED to Queen Anne's children by her husband, Prince George of Denmark and why? Queen Anne of Great Britain had 17 PREGNANCIES, but no surviving heir to the throne. Her last child, Prince William, Duke of Gloucester, died aged just 11. So why did Queen Anne miscarry so many of her children and why did those who survived birth die? Discover the tragic tale in this Queen Anne Stuart documentary from History Calling. You’ll hear about Queen Anne’s medical history, what modern doctors think the problem was, and the reproductive difficulties faced by some of the other women of the British royal family in the mid to late seventeenth century, including her mother, Anne Hyde, Duchess of York, sister Mary II and stepmother, Mary of Modena.
