Today, we uncover the explosive scandal of 1889-so shocking it rocked high society, touched the royal family, and made global headlines.
A routine theft investigation within the Royal Mail unexpectedly exposes a thriving male brothel in London. Even more astonishing? Its elite clientele includes government officials and aristocrats. Desperate attempts are made to silence the press, but the story leaks overseas-naming none other than Prince Albert Victor, Queen Victoria’s grandson and brother to the future King George V.
