Fun fact: when homosexuality was specifically outlawed in England during the Victorian Era, Queen Victoria was asked why it only specifies men and she responded with something to the effect of “women have no sexual desire so why would we need to extend it to women?”
So either she had never been aroused in her life, she was ace, or she was getting some really good sex from a woman and didn’t want to be discovered

Dorothy Thyo Pierre-Louis I was going to say, yeah, she *reeeeallly* loved (loving) Albert, and it's funny because people have always been like "ah yes, the Victorian era, where hassocks had to have skirts, lest one become aroused at the sight of furniture legs, surely the Queen herself was the inspiration for such prudishness and chastity!" Whether their marriage was domestic bliss or not, her diaries--and their ~adult themed~ gifts to each other say something

Fun fact checking yielded a discussion at Quora that concluded that there was no evidence that she got it on with anybody other than Prince Albert and this cool article about the history of lesbians in England.

You wouldn't be the only person to feel that way. She pretty much fucked him to death.
"Over the years, overwork undermined Prince Albert's health and during the 1850s he became increasingly tired and suffered bouts of ill health. He died from typhoid fever on 14 December 1861 at Windsor Castle with Queen Victoria and five of his children at his bedside."
"Despite the intensity and obvious physicality of his relationship with Victoria, who was certain she was the only woman to whom Albert had ever made love, there has been some speculation that Albert was gay. What made Albert’s contemporaries skeptical was the fact that Albert appeared immune to the charms of London’s great beauties, whose names he too often forgot; he did not flirt and was not impressed with appearance. When Albert turned eighteen, he had jokingly promised Stockmar he would “pay more attention to the ladies.”
"Stockmar said Albert was just “too indifferent and too reserved” around the opposite sex, adding, “He will always have more success with men.” This was partly true. Albert loved his wife, but socially and intellectually he preferred male company. This preference was obvious to the likes of Lady Clarendon, a politician’s wife, who struggled to make conversation with him at dinner and noted that the only women he spoke to were royalty. While he did not enjoy the after-dinner port drinking and male banter that were then the custom— usually leaving to play chess alone or sing duets with Victoria—his closest friendships were with men."
