Emma and Nelson Part 3
Manage episode 353064789 series 2918775
When Nelson, with his lover Emma and her husband in tow, met his wife at Nerots Hotel in London, after a two year separation, the one thing that was certain was that he was entering choppy waters. Nelson's hope of putting on a respectable front while continuing his affair was hopelessly unrealistic and things soon fell apart.
His untidy private life now affected his professional standing, and despite his great victory at The Nile he was placed second in command of his next great expedition. And with Emma pregnant and the Prince of Wales infatuated with her, things were about to get even more complicated. But one thing was almost always certain with nelson - send him to fight and the sparks would fly. At Copenhagen Nelson endured his bloodiest and most controversial battle, and it was one that proved, once and for all, that he was his country' most reliable and terrifying weapon.
