Best Answer

Royalty tended to marry amongst themselves, so it wasn't unusual for relatives to marry. Also, Prince Albert's father wanted him to marry money and Victoria was a prime candidate for this. As his father was brother to Victoria's mother it was relatively easy to arrange for them to meet.
