Edgar the Atheling, also known as Edgar Ætheling, was seen as indecisive and lacking strong leadership qualities. He struggled to assert his claim to the English throne during the Norman Conquest, ultimately failing to secure it. His perceived weaknesses contributed to the diminished support for the Anglo-Saxon cause in the fight against William the Conqueror.

What opportunities did Edgar the Athling have in1066?

Prince Edgar the Ætheling's claim was that he was the closest blood relative to King Edward. In fact, apart from Edgar there were no other male members of the House of Wessex (the royal family) alive in 1066. Edgar was the great-nephew of Edward the Confessor. Harold II may have been descended in the male line from Æthelræd I, King of Wessex (865-871AD) but this has never been proved.
