King briefly affected there with eg ADHD (6,3,6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

edward the eighth

'king briefly' is the definition.
(Edward VIII was king for only one year)

'affected there with eg adhd' is the wordplay.
'affected' indicates anagramming the letters.
'there'+'with'+'eg'+'adhd'='therewithegadhd'
'therewithegadhd' with letters rearranged gives 'EDWARD THE EIGHTH'.

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
