description: Like his brothers. William, Duke of Clarence, has had his share of romance and intrigue. And when he falls in love with Dorothy Jordan, the comic genius of the Drury Land Theatre, gossipmongers are ecstatic, for William is not the only one with a shady past. Dorothy's notorious offstage life combined with William's less than decorous behavior will make great copy for the scandal sheets, while their affair lasts. But everyone is surprised when what should have been a casual dalliance develops into a twenty year marriage in all but name, complete with ten children.
