Edward VIII - Edward invited Prime Minister Baldwin

Time: Monday Nov 16, 1936

Place: Buckingham Palace, London, England, United Kingdom

Details: On 16 November 1936, Edward invited Prime Minister Baldwin to Buckingham Palace and expressed his desire to marry Simpson when she became free to remarry. Baldwin informed him that his subjects would deem the marriage morally unacceptable, largely because remarriage after divorce was opposed by the Church of England, and the people would not tolerate Simpson as queen.
