In this episode of Historical Tinder, Rebecca is joined by Dr. Peter Stiffell, stepping in for Dr. Emma, to ask one tantalizing question: what if Mary I had married her longtime confidant and cousin Reginald Pole instead of Philip of Spain?

Was this the ultimate Catholic power couple waiting to happen—or a relationship better left in letters and late-night council conversations?

Grab your roses, sharpen your red flags, and join us as we put Mary and Reggie through the Historical Tinder test.
