Queen Victoria’s eldest son and heir was a man of great appetites. He loved food, he loved drink and he loved women. Dirty Bertie’s licentiousness flew in the face of his mother’s regime of uptight morality. The jolly Prince of wales was so popular with the ladies that he became known as Edward the Caresser. He had more than 55 mistresses, some noble society ladies, some glamorous actresses, some Persian sex workers and even a sharp-tongued chef. Here are the stories of just a handful of the many colorful mistresses of King Edward VII:

Nellie Clifden

Hortense Schneider

Catherine Walters

Lady Susan Vane-Tempest

Jennie Jerome Spencer-Churchill

Lady Harriet Mordaunt

Patsy Cornwallis-West

Parisian Sex Workers

Lillie Langtry

Sarah Bernhardt

Daisy Greville, Countess of Warwick

Agustina del Carmen Otero

Alice Keppel

Rosa Lewis
