Reply to comment by blue-cube in TIL Queen Sophie of the Netherlands’ marriage with King William was so turbulent that when she died, she was buried in her wedding dress because she viewed her life ended on the day she got married. by AsianInvasian93

> After Sophie's death in 1877 he [William III] married Emma of Waldeck and Pyrmont in 1879 and they had one daughter Wilhelmina, who succeeded William to the Dutch throne

His surviving sons were still heirs to the throne at the time of his marriage, but they died before he did.
