(Queen) Victoria’s Secret: Bloomers Fetched £4,500 at an Auction

A pair of bloomers once owned by Queen Victoria had just fetched £4,500 at an auction:

The knickers have a 50in (127cm) waist and date from the 1890s, which indicates the monarch had a large girth as she approached her old age.

It was thought the bloomers would fetch £500 but a Canadian buyer spent £4,500 on the pants which are monogrammed with VR for Victoria Regina.
