Augusta of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach child Friedrich III of Germany
Married life
The first weeks of marriage were harmonious; Augusta was taken favorably in the Prussian King's court, however, Augusta soon started to be bored with its military sobriety, and most courtly duties (which may have counteracted this boredom) were reserved to her sister-in-law, Crown Princess Elisabeth.
In a letter which William wrote on 22 January 1831 to his sister Charlotte, he has mixed feelings of his wife's "lack of femininity".  Prince Friedrich (later Emperor Frederick  III of Germany), was born later that year on 18 October 1831, three years after their marriage and  Louise, was born on 3 December 1838, seven years later.
