It was not long ago that two young women accused the Duke of Cumberland of trying to ride them down on horseback. Although the Duke of Cumberland had ample evidence proving he did not leave the house that day and confirmed that it was his attendant who went out horseback riding, and the attendant stated he had never seen these two women, it did not stop Fleet Street from writing extensively about it.
Reading this, perhaps the discerning eye might sense something amiss.
Because, even though the Duke of Cumberland indeed has various notorious behaviors, many of the charges leveled against him remain unsubstantiated rumors.
And if one carefully examines the timing of these negative news reports, it's easy to discern a fact: All these scandals were revealed during the Duke of Cumberland's stay in Britain, while during his more than ten years in Germany, there was never any scandal, only when he announced plans to return to Britain did these scandals appear en masse.
