Maria Amalia of Saxony (1724–60) was a German princess who married the future Charles III of Spain in 1738, the year of this painting. She was Queen of Naples and Sicily from 1738 until 1759, then Queen of Spain from 1759 until her death.Painting: Louis de Silvestre

Some? edit

I've removed the word "some" from the first paragraph. In this context it means "approximately". The queen didn't have "approximately" 13 children, she had "exactly" 13 children. At least, that's all that are mentioned in the article. I'm not aware that there were any illegitimate children.Caeruleancentaur (talk) 06:46, 1 September 2013 (UTC)Reply

@Caeruleancentaur Thanks for correcting. She was a faithful wife to her husband King Charles III. The Sri Lanka (talk) 17:48, 30 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
