How many of queen Victoria daughters had hemophilia?

Answer 1

It is not known how she got hemophilia, but many family members were affected by it

1. Her daughter Alice was a carrier and gave the gene to several children

a. Alice's daughter Alexandra

1. Alexandra's son Alexis

b. Alice's son Fredrick

c. Alice's daughter Irene

1. Irene's son Waldemar

2. Irene's son Henry

2. Victoria's son Leopold had hemophilia and passed it on as well

a. Leopold's daughter Alice was a carrier

1. Alice's son Rupert, Viscount Trematon

3. Victoria's daughter Beatrice was a carrier and passed it on

a. Beatrice's daughter Victoria Eugenie or Ena

1. Ena's son Alfonzo

2. Ena's son Gonzalo

b. Beatrice's son Leopold

c. Beatrice's son Maurice

There might have been more, but we will never know. Because Tsarina Alexandra's daughters died before being able to have children we will never know if they were carriers of hemophilia. Statistically though at least one of them was more than likely a carrier.

Answer 2

Yes she was a carrier for hemophilia. Because it is a sex linked gene and one of her sons actually had hemophilia it can be concluded that it was she and not Prince Albert that gave hemophila to their descendents.

Answer 3

There is no rhyme or reason why so many of her descendants have/had hemophilia.

Out of her 9 children three were affected by it either as carriers or hemophilia sufferers

Out of her 40 surviving grandchildren at least 7 had hemophilia or were carriers.

After that it is not as well know. One of the reasons is because out of her 80 odd some great-grandchildren the daughters of Tsarina Alexandra were killed before they could have children. Statistically at least one of the daughters would have ended up being a carrier, maybe more than one.

After that it gets furthur watered down because not all of her great-great grandchildren were/are royal making existing cases of hemophilia easier to hide in that or latre generations. In the book Queen Victoria's gene the authors make a case for hemophilia in several descendants of Victoria Euginia of Spain, but because they are no longer royal it is hard to be sure.,

Answer 4

No Prince Albert did not have hemophilia. Hemophilia is carried on the X chromosome-so if Prince Albert had hemophilia all his daughters would have been carriers and his sons would have been free of it. Since his son Leopold had hemophilia and only two of his daughters were carriers he could not have had hemophilia.

Answer 5

None of her daughters actually had hemophilia because it is almost impossible for women to have it. However her daughters Alice and Beatrice were carriers of the disease and passed it on. Many people think that her daughter Victoria was also a carrier also because her son had two hemophiliac sons but that was because he married his first cousin Irene (the daughter of Alice) who was a carrier.

Answer 6

No Queen Victoria herself did not have hemophilia, but she was a carrier of the disease and transmitted it to her son and two daughters who passed it on.

Answer 7

No they were not 3/4 of them were
