I am playing an Iron man game and my leader has not been able to get a birth for 13 years with his wife and only one bastard with his 2 lovers (who I unluckily was not given the option to make legitimate). I also have the lust trait for half that time. I have no specific fertility negatives and neither does my wife (who is now 29). I also did the "have a son ambition" for about half that time which I believe raises fertility by 10%.
So my question is does the fact that my wife is "in hiding" have an impact (the tool tip says nothing about this). She is an east francian double count and I was a duke in lombard (now king of lombard). So I think people want her dead to avoid her having a child with me and splitting 2 counties away.
Anyhow just wondering if I should divorce her as I am a bit worried about my dynasty, but would love to have a male child or two and get those 2 counties. I only have like 2 other living male members and my character is in his mid 30's.
Advice would be welcome
