King George did, though he was also going mad from lead poisoning.

...the king suffered from porphyria, a rare genetic disorder which interferes with the body's chemical balance. The symptoms include rashes, abdominal pain, and reddish blue urine, all of which George suffered. Untreated, it can affect the nervous system and lead to insanity. If King George were alive today, he would be treated with drugs and advised to avoid too much sunlight.
