A surviving French Empire has a good chance of butterflying away the Napoleon IV-Beatrice union, but there is a chance the match will be pushed for political purposes (i.e., closer ties to the UK and increasing Bonaparte legitimacy).
Agreed. The Bonapartes and Victorians actually got along fairly well as two families as well, so it's not too far fetched of an idea either. That Napoléon and Beatrice got along so well IOTL gives a good indication of the same possibility ITTL.
