Subject: Hamlet the elder and his wife

I don't understand the relationship between the elder Hamlet and his wife. He puts all of the blame on Claudius and not Gertrude. She married him so quickly and without protest. The funeral was only a month back and the marriage was considered incestuous. Did Gertrude really love the dead king? It doesn't seem like it. I would wonder if she had anything to do with his murder, but the ghost says not to touch her.
