Edward

youthful aristocratic innocent

Marbury thrusts Edward, five-year-old Earl of Ulster, into White House crossfire as a living link in Britain's convoluted royal chain—son to Richard, Duke of Gloucester, grandson to Henry. Donna latches on, plotting letters "once he learns to read and write," her playful crush defusing Leo-Marbury tension. This peripheral princeling embodies monarchy's whimsical absurdities, a child's innocence clashing against adult power games, injecting levity into diplomatic brinkmanship.
