But when the prince is nearly forty, he falls in love with a divorced American woman—Wal... show all lis Simpson. No one thinks the relationship will last, and when the prince becomes king, everyone assumes that it's the end of the affair. But to the shock of the British establishment, the new king announces his intention to marry the American divorcée. Overnight, Wallis is accused of entrapping the prince in a seductive web in order to achieve her audacious ambition to be queen. After declaring that he could not rule without the woman he loves, the king abdicates, and his family banishes him and his new wife from the country. The couple spends the rest of their days in exile, but happy in their devoted love for each other.
