Edward VII, the British king from 1901 to 1910, and his reputation as a playboy with an insatiable sexual appetite. It details his love for the vibrant nightlife of 19th-century Paris, where he frequented brothels and had affairs with famous courtesans. Despite being married to Princess Alexandra of Denmark and having six children with her, Edward had numerous mistresses, leading to scandals and damage to the British monarchy's reputation. Edward's sexual escapades were legendary, earning him nicknames like "Dirty Bertie" and "Edward the Caresser." He visited Paris in 1864, indulging in the city's pleasures and preferring its brothels and courtesans over high art. He even rented a private room at the renowned Le Chabanais brothel and commissioned a special love chair to accommodate his increasing weight and his desire to be intimate with multiple women simultaneously. Some of Edward's most prominent mistresses included Jennie Churchill (Lady Randolph Churchill), who had a strictly sexual affair with him, and Lillie Langtry, an actress with whom he had a passionate relationship. Countess Daisy Greville was another of his mistresses, and their love affair lasted eleven years. Alice Keppel, Edward's final mistress, was financially supported by him in exchange for her company.

Edward's sexual exploits, which resulted in numerous illegitimate children and caused significant controversy, were viewed as emblematic of the indulgent behavior expected of kings during that era
