Club foot and cleft-palate do not make for a hunky or even healthy king. No doubt there were other medical issues involved as well. Ditto for the ill-fated children. Ugh. Reminds me of horror movies where inbred creatures hide in the hills and wreak havoc on regular people. Still...can't help but be fascinated by all of the lurid details. We've come a long way, baby.
