History Tea Time

The Norman Queens & Consorts of England 2/8


Listen Later

The Norman Queens of England who came to power after the invasion of William the Conqueror brought continental sophistication to the island kingdom. They fought fiercely for their rights and the rights of their children. One even went to wara against her husband. The Norman Queens consort and England’s first male consort were:

Matilda of Flanders

Matilda of Scotland

Adeliza of Louvain

Matilda of Boulogne

Geoffrey Plantagenet

Eleanor of Aquitaine

The lives of the many Kings and handful of Queens Regnant who have held dominion over the kingdom of England, and later the United Kingdom take center stage in history. But the lives of their spouses and mothers are often relegated to the wings. In this series we will learn the stories of the many Queens Consort and the handful of male consorts who have been at the monarchs’ sides. Through love, hate, adultery and sometimes murder these women and men have played vital roles in the history of England.
