English monarch George the Prince Regent, latterly King George IV of Great Britain and Hanover, was BOTD in 1762. A compulsive overspender and womaniser, his close friendship with fashionista #BeauBrummel also prompted rumours about his bisexuality. #princeregent #georgeiv #maybegays #bornonthisday
