Frederick William II married his first cousin, Elizabeth Christina Ulrika of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel in 1765 and had a daughter. After his divorce in 1769, he was re-married to Frederika Louise of Hesse-Darmstadt and had five children. His reign is characterised by moral decay at the court due to favouritism and the filthiness of numerous mistresses including the notorious trumpeter's daughter 'Rieke' Enke, styled 'Countess von Lichtenau'. She and two merry bigamous morgantic wives made him the happy father of a further nine recognised children.
