ABSTRACT
Wallis Simpson, in her own way, intervened in the real/royal. 1 Historians, romantics, the elderly and the inquisitive will remember, around 1936, that a significant presence appeared in the English court, one that opened a hole in the line of succession: and Edward VIII, Duke of Windsor, who was king at that time, fell. 2 At that time it was said that between the—royal (or real)—throne and love, he renounced the throne and chose love. A noble act that gave relief to millions of whores and housemaids: love, existed. And it was so important that for love even a royal (real) throne could be spurned. Anyway, it was possible to have hope.
