Personal Information: (Other)Eadgyth 3
Eadgyth 3 provided the king, who took no interest in such matters, with royal finery. In this she seemd more like a daughter than a wife, not so much a spouse as a good mother. Eadgyth 3, from the very beginning of her marriage, clad him in raiments either embroidered by herself or of her choice... in the ornamentation of these no count was made in the cost. Edward 15's saddle and horse trappings were hung with little beasts and birds made from gold by smiths under her direction. Finally, any object that she thought would become him was brought to peerfection without the slightest delay.
