The Depressed & Anorexic Empress #shorts

Empress Elisabeth of Austria was 16 when she married 23-year-old Emperor Franz Joseph in 1854. She was overwhelmed by the new life ahead of her and sobbed during the ride to her new home. Sadly, things never seemed to get better for the troubled woman, who was famous for her captivating beauty and unnaturally thin waistline.

Franz Joseph was smitten with his young bride, but Elisabeth was less enthused about the marriage. She struggled with shyness and kept to herself as she adjusted to the strict ways of the royal court. Elisabeth’s husband and mother-in-law criticized her avoidance of public life and interfered with the raising of her children.
