Summary | The changing political fortunes of Lord Melbourne finally afford Albert the opportunity to become involved in the affairs of state, a role Victoria had previously resisted. Soon, his wise counsel leads the Queen to call him "king in everything but name". But their joint rule would not last long, as Albert's tireless work on the Great Exhibition of 1851 comes at the cost of his health. He never fully recovers, eventually succumbing to typhoid fever in 1862, leaving Victoria to rule alone for nearly 40 years. |
