In this mini episode, we focus on the final chapter of Jane Seymour’s life and the legacy that followed. We talk about the letters Jane wrote to Henry VIII while she was recovering from childbirth, offering one of the few moments where we hear directly from her and see how carefully she navigated her role as queen. We also examine the circumstances surrounding her death after the birth of Edward VI, and how that loss reshaped the way she was remembered.

Finally, we unpack how Jane Seymour came to be known as Henry’s “good” wife and why history chose to remember her not for who she was, but for what she gave the crown.
