    When the monarchy of England was restored and King Charles II became king, the playhouses were reoppened. And for the first time, women would be permitted to be on stage, performing. The most popular comedic actress of the age, Nell Gwyn, would become a success, but her most famous role would be as the King's mistress.

  • The Queen of Romance

    The Queen of Romance
    May 28 2024

    Over her lifetime, Dame Barbara Cartland would write over 700 books that would sell more than 750 MILLION copies worldwide. Though her books were primarily aimed and read by women, Cartland's messages were strickingly regressive, with an ephasis on purity that seems strange to modern readers of romance novels. As her step-granddaughter Diana Spencer would one day discover, some fairy tales don't align with reality.

    The Corpse on Trial
    May 21 2024

    When Pope Stephen was putting his predecessor on trial, there were signs that what he was doing wasn't quite right. For one, in the middle of the trial, an earthquake shook Rome. For another, his opponent was a dead body.

Such an amazing story!

I completely loved the story. I love all of Dana's Noble Blood episodes but this one for some reason really resonated with me. I have only admiration for the Texas princes and will be definitely find out more about her life. Thanks for this amazing episode and for all the others. I enjoyed them very much!
