Les rosbifs like their weird old relics, never mind now they were probably the first European monarchy to reduce their crownheads into mere decorations for good.
Though in practice members of the upper classes normally just got their dynastic duties over and done with whether they liked their assigned spouses or not, and thereafter discretely found their emotional and/or sexual fulfillment elsewhere if necessary.
Or... not so discreetly, depending.
There were some pretty wild people in the vast family tree of the Austrian Hapsburgs in the 1800s for ex, such as Emperor Franz Joseph's youngest brother the Archduke Ludwig Viktor - an open flamboyant homosexual and transvestite whom Big Bro Emps eventually had to exile from the capital after one too public a scandal too many.
And at least two minor Archdukes and one Archduchess (sister of one of the previous as it happened) who straight up ran away to start new lives abroad - one of the former became a merchant captain and eventually died in a storm off Cap Horn IIRC.
