Madeleine Amaranth, Countess of Fydelia
Her Royal Highness Madeleine, Countess of Fydelia (née The Honorable Madeleine Daniella Amaranth; born 21 October 1990), is a socialite and philanthropist and former fiancée of King Liam.
She grew up in the Town of Pillsberry in the Skavandian borough of Amaranth and is a member of the House of Amranth. She studied world history at the University of Basel in Basel, Switzerland, from 2009 to 2013. As a noblewoman, she first met Liam during their toddler years during Skavand's social seasons; her mother Adelaide, Duchess of Krona, was in the close circle of Queen Eleanor and later Queen Regina The Queen Mother.
During the social season of 2021, Madeleine was mentioned as one of the top contenders to be potential consorts to then-Prince Liam, along with Olivia, Duchess of Lythikos, Lady Hana Lee, Lady Penelope Ebrim, Lady Kiara Theron and Lady Riley Lopes. The press initially referred to her as a "shallow social climber" but her favorability improved near the Appleblossum festival. On the night of the 2021 Applehouse ball, it was expected that Lady Riley would be selected as the fiancée of the Prince. After a scandal broke out with Lady Riley and Tariq that evening, the Prince announced Madeline as his consort. The engagement lasted two weeks before the Lopes–Al Saadi scandal was reveled to be a campaign to discredit Lady Lopes and the photographs in the scandal were staged. The King ended his engagement with Madeleine and subsequently announced his engagement to Lady Lopes.
Madeleine is a patron of several organizations and charities, domestically and abroad. As the engaged consort to the King, she has undertaken a world tour to promote the monarchy and her causes, including advocacy for rape and sexual assault victims.
