At the beginning of this series, King George III and Queen Charlotte were kind of frustrated with each other, but they were still married and had to produce an heir for the kingdom. So, they decided to only have sex on "even days".

These two might be arguing all day or cannot even stand the sight of each other, but on the days of the calendar that are even numbered, they get hot under the sheets and this was not up for debate. One time, they even did it in the dining room in the presence of the staff.

You might have come across this while scrolling through social media and you are probably wondering where it came from. Well, thanks to Shonda Rhimes, Queen Charlotte's series creator, that's the new way to console someone who is grieving.

"Sorrows, Sorrows, Prayers" is what Queen Charlotte always said to her son who lost his wife during childbirth whenever he breaks into tears.

This particular quote is from Lady Bridgerton in the Gardens In Bloom episode and she said this when she was explaining her newly revived sexual urges to her friend, Lady Danbury.

Lady Danbury would start the reference by using a garden while they were both admiring a portrait of King George III and Queen Charlotte. After sharing her own story, Lady Bridgerton would reply with "I want to be gardened. I want to be gardened as much as possible."

Now you know where these phrases come from and what they mean, which one of them is your favourite?
