Wallis Simpson was the divorced American mistress and later the wife of the former King Edward VIII of the United Kingdom.
In November 1936, Lady Louisa Pollard referred to her as "that dreadful Simpson woman." (AUDIO: The Fall of the House of Pollard)
She met the Sixth Doctor and Peri Brown in December 1936, shortly before Edward abdicated the British throne to marry her on 10 December of that year. (PROSE: Players)
In an alternative timeline in which Nazi Germany won World War II, Edward VIII was restored to the throne with Wallis as his Queen in 1940. He signed a treaty which established Great Britain as a protectorate of the Greater German Reich. (PROSE: Timewyrm: Exodus)
