Please help me to proofread my translation --
Original text:
Este Manuel era Godoy, amante ostentoso de la Reina….no supo evitar el contagio del sensualismo imperante, y para los negocio oficiales faltábale el tiempo que derrochaba en brazos de la Reina Maria Luisa…
My translation:
Manuel Godoy, ostensibly lover of the Queen…. (he) failed to avoid the contagion of the prevailing sensuality and he lacked the time to deal with official business because he wasted it in the arms of the Queen Maria Lusia….
Thanks

ostensibly lover of the Queen….
I think "amante ostentoso" is more like "the Queen's swanky lover".
