I think he just genuinely cared about Mary and Catherine. He strikes me as being a kind person.

Recent novel by Alison Weir on Mary I has a lot on their relationships with Chapuys

He was like a second father to her, I thought.

I love videos about Chapuys as he was a really interesting person! Sadly, I haven't found many.

My great ect grandmother was Mary Tudor Henry sister ......I have to tell people at least once a day 😂😂

It's great that Mary had someone in her corner. Henry would have solved many of his issues if he had arranged for Mary when she was young to marry a suitable member of a royal household & let her have children who could inherit the throne.

Many thanks Heather, a very interesting episode.

What dog?

The dog has no respect for its owner

The only "Easement" scenario that I experience is professional sporting events. The Trough. Thirty feet long. Mmmmm, bonding.

I always thought the upper class English insistence upon public restraint had classical origins. Is this true?

It amazes me how long it took for people to develop chimneys. The technology is simple.

Wow, thank you so much. Glad I live today. I like my privacy and so does my cat 🐈‍⬛ and dog 🐕🙏🙏👵🇦🇺

Thanks for the upload , ❤ Judy from Ventura , Ca. Perfect timing. !👍!Relaxing after a long day at work 😊

thank you but the intro took forever 🥲

I'm a descendant of hers thru her daughter Catherine and Husband Robert Bertie, thru their son Peregrine ... continuing to the de Courtney line.

LOVE THIS!!!

Your talk was fascinating! I run the Tudor learning circle/renaissance reading society book club and we will definitely be having your book in 2025 in our book club!

Thank you Samantha! I’m excited to read your book Faithful Traitor!

Thanks so much for doing these podcasts. You make learning history very fun and interesting.

Thank you, she did not have an easy life did she. Poor, poor woman 🙏🙏🙏🙏👵🇦🇺

OMGoodness! 😱 Take my money 💰 I need this book.

Excellent and interesting, thank you

Thank you sooo much! I had no idea of the relationship of Japan and England at that time.😊

Many thanks for this very interesting presentation.

Thank you, great stories about the Poles.

Oh, with the Mabon and the super harvest moon and the release of Agatha All Along, this is just the thing I'm craving

Thank you for this very interesting details

Not to be rude and this is probably a massive tangent. But any laws set forth in the Old Testament do not apply to Christians. Christians have new laws and covenants to adhere to based on what Jesus said and did. I'll use Peter's vision of previously unclean birds and God telling him to go ahead and eat them. It was a clear sign that Christians aren't bound by Jewish laws. Basically I'm saying that Henry didn't have a leg to stand on since the commandment he was using as validation for divorcing Catherine didn't even actually apply to him in the first place because he wasn't Jewish by blood or by faith 😅

The women were so used and often discarded, even if they were a queen

I crochet, or drink tea, or clean my house, or garden… ❤

Poor Juana must have been exhausted

Thank you so much, she was a fascinating lady. Do you ever think what these amazing women could have made of their lives these days. Never think we ( or should I say I) get bored with you talking. I’d listen to you read the tide times and find it interesting. So watching with interest as your subscribers grow and grow. So, so well deserved. 🙏🙏🙏👵🇦🇺

This was a terrific episode. What an interesting and admirable life she led. Although, I'm not sure how a marriage to Henry would have worked out. Many thanks Heather.

This is my first time catching one of your videos on the same day you posted instead of one from like three years ago 😅 I love your content. Tudor history is one of my favorite time periods. And I love how truly in-depth you go with all your videos because you're absolutely right. It's all connected. I also love how you never seem to run out of Tudor history to talk about 🩷

Thank you, that was really informative. Wonder what poor Catherine felt. Here was someone from home, and a sister - what a surprise - and she was kept at arms length. Poor girl, she did not have an easy time in England yet became a much loved queen. Except by her husband. If only good luck had given her a son. She would have been cheated on but her position , as mother of the future king, was safe for life. ( if not happy) 🙏🙏🙏👵🇦🇺

Many thanks Heather for this informative broadcast. It really is fascinating how random events beyond a monarch's control can alter the course of history.

Love this history in special. Thanks, well narrated it and your voice Heather is just perfect 👍 ❤ you are my favorite while in bed relaxing after a long day at work 😓 Judy from Ventura California 😊

Thank you for this! I just found out she's my 16th great-grandmother. I'm related to her through her daughter Margaret.

Congratulations on your fifteen years🎉🎉🎉

Imagine having a sibling you loved who's very existence put your own life at risk.

The pre Vietnam years term for PTSD was shell shocked.
