They would never have allowed her to marry a European who was or would be a King or Emperor or whatever. They probably would have found a lesser Prince or Duke for her. British Parliament would never have allowed her to marry Wilhelm. Actually, you’re probably right.

Edit: I checked the timeline and as I suspected Victoria II married Fredrick long before the death of Victoria I. So, there could have been a Wilhelm. Still, I am not an expert on royal succession, but it would be very odd to wed 2 crown royals without a plan to merge the kingdoms. Alternate history is never easy :) Unlikely there would have been a Wilhelm

The English don' wan' no furreners for King. Nah, they’d have chopped off Wilhelm’s head the first time he set foot in England. The English don’ wan’ no furreners for King.
