    It's weird how I'd never heard of Sisi until a couple years ago when I got really into reading about 19th century eastern/central Europe. A shame, her life is fascinating if terribly depressing - those Wittlesbachs never seem to have a good time, do they?

    Very interesting short summary of Elizabeth's life. However a few flaws. Firstly Elizabeth did not have an affair with count Andrassy as she hated making love. Therefore she encouraged her husband to have a longtime affair with Katharina Schratt, who was as well kind of a soul mate to the emperor as his wife was unable to do so. The story of the death of crown prince Rudolf and baroness Mary Vetsera is all but a Romeo and Julia story. Mary was one of Rudolfs many affairs and there is more than one reason to believe that he already had enough from her and wanted closure. Some historians believe that the journey to Mayerling should bring this affair to an end. Whatever happened there, it was no death out of love without fulfillment (maybe but just maybe on her side). There are many theories what may have happened at Mayerling on this could winter night but all have one in common: The crown prince of Austria-Hungary did not die for love!

    Psychosomatic symptoms? Definitely! I have them as well and man does it feel good to get away from your stressors. Those doctors did a huge favor to Sisi prescribing her vacation 😊
    Also I have a theory that her son ended up offing himself because of his upbringing. I’ve heard many children who end up mental health issues because their mothers do not care for them (while still being physically around).

    Technically, the wife of an emperor/king doesn’t reign. She is just the wife of the emperor/king and mother of the ruler’s children. Same role as the late Prince Phillip, the late QEII’s husband. She was Empress of Austria/Queen of Hungary, but Franz Joseph was the one with the power (allegedly… he was a mama’s boy and let his mother have too much say in ruling Austria). If Elisabeth did have power, she could’ve told her monster-in-law to take a hike and shove it, lol.
