George II’s favourite son, William, Duke of Cumberland never married (like many of the Hanoverians’ second sons), although there were talks to marry him to King Frederik V of Denmark’s sister. George II toyed with the idea of splitting his realms between Frederick, prince of Wales, and Cumberland. (Ignoring the legality of such a split), surely if this was contemplated, a bride would be required to ensure that Hannover remained separate from Great Britain.
