 George V of the United Kingdom
He was born at Marlborough House in London, the second son of King Edward VII of the United Kingdom, who at that time held the title of Prince of Wales.
As a younger son, there was no expectation of George's ever taking the throne, the heir being his elder brother, Prince Albert Victor, Duke of Clarence, known to the family as "Eddy".
Following his father's accession to the throne in 1901, George was created Prince of Wales, which he held until his father's death on May 6, 1910, when he succeeded to the throne.

"Prince Eddy," as he was called, seems ill-cast in the role of the savage and calculating Ripper.
Prince Eddy's father was a Freemason, as was William Gull, and the Masons protected their own.
Gull and his two accomplices systematically hunted down and killed Kelly and her partners in the flmail plot; high-ranking Freemasons assisted in making the murders appear to be the random work of a lone madman; and the legend of Jack the Ripper was born.

In 1891, Princess May was engaged to His Royal Highness Prince Albert Victor, Duke of Clarence, the eldest son of Prince Albert Edward, Prince of Wales.
Princess May was chosen as a bride for Albert Victor, due mainly to Queen Victoria's fondness of May, as well as her strong character and sense of duty.
Albert was generally ignored, and he turned into a shy, stammering man as a result.

Prince Albert Victor Christian Edward (known as "Eddy" to his friends) is one of the most famous suspects in the Jack the Ripper case, figuring in no less than three major theories.
Eddy was named Duke of Clarence and Avondale in 1891 and would likely have followed Bertie to the throne had Eddy not fallen victim to the influenza epidemic of 1891-92.

Prince Red Jack waves off any assistance from his many attendants, and upon returning to the stables, tells the groom he'll rub down his horse himself.
When Albert Victor leaves the stall, the natural assumption is he's gone to get a curry brush or perhaps some rubdown towels; instead, we are treated to a very nonchalant Eddy calmly lighting a match...and then throwing it into the stall, presumably directly on the horse.
Or that Prince Albert Victor died of influenza, and not advanced syphilis.

 Review - Prince Eddy   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
Was Jack the Ripper really Prince Albert Victor, Duke of Clarence ("Eddy"), son and heir of the Prince of Wales and grandson of Queen Victoria?
Nor was the prince’s tutor James Stephen ever a credible suspect in the case.
Apparently, because the suspect did have a connection with the Duke of Clarence that could have led to dangerous revelations about "Eddy’s" indiscreet private life (And you thought the present Royal Family had problems!).

Tutor to the Duke of Clarence at Cambridge for two years beginning in 1883, Stephen was the son of a barrister.
The most bizarre "evidence" was the intimation -- wholly theoretical -- that Stephen had been engaged in a homosexual relationship with the Duke of Clarence, and that the rebuff of such a liaison was the basis for some obscure revenge in the form of the murder of East End prostitutes.
