Emilie Sophie Högquist (29 April 1812 – 18 December 1846) was a Swedish actress and the mistress of Oscar I of Sweden. She was a star of the Royal Dramatic Theatre, the most celebrated dramatic Swedish primadonna of her time, called the Swedish Aspasia, and also famous for her love affairs. She has been called the first female celebrity within Swedish drama. == Background == She was the daughter of Anders Högquist, butler of count Carl De Geer, and Anna Beata Hedvall. Her brother Jean and her sister Hanna was also to became stage artists. As her sister, she was placed in Dramatens elevskola by her mother in 1821: she also participated in the child theatre of Anders Selinder, the Selinderska Barntheatern. Through her fathers profession, Emilie Högquist was early exposed to interest from men from the upper classes. Her mother was known to host balls, to which she invited female students from Dramatens elevskola and introduced them to officers, diplomats and other men from the upper classes. Further more, the royal theatre also hosted balls from time to time, in which men were allowed to buy a dance from a female theatre student to help the finances of the theatre〔Nordin Hennek, Ingeborg: ''Mod och försakelser. Livs- och yrkesbetingelser för Konglig Theaterns skådespelerskor 1813-1863.'' Gidlunds. Södertälje (1997)〕 Both her mothers and the balls of the theatre was ill-reputed because they were regarded to give the opportunity for prostitution when the students were introduced to wealthy men〔Nordin Hennek, Ingeborg: ''Mod och försakelser. Livs- och yrkesbetingelser för Konglig Theaterns skådespelerskor 1813-1863.'' Gidlunds. Södertälje (1997)〕 In the case of Emilie Högquist, it was known that she was in fact prostituted by her mother, who introduced her at the age of fourteen to a rich older man 〔(Stålberg, Wilhelmina: Anteckningar om svenska qvinnor ) 〕 Between 1826 and 1828, she was a member of the travelling theatre company touring the country side. Upon her return, she was accepted as a student at the Royal Theatre in Stockholm. She debuted at the royal theatre in the play ''Qväkaren'' in 1828. In 1831, she was contracted at the royal theatre. Her younger brother Jean Högquist (1814–1850), who was also considered to be great talent, followed her there, but his self-destructive way of life made him impossible for the theatre, and she sent him to America. Jean Högquist was very close to his sister: he returned in 1846, and when Emilie died, he became so self-destructive that he died only four years later.
