In this episode, I’m diving into all things Seymour! I’ll explore the origins of the Seymour family, the history of their famous estate, Wolf Hall, and the powerful (and sometimes rocky) relationships they had with Queens Mary I and Elizabeth I. We’ll also take a closer look at Anne Stanhope, the formidable Duchess of Somerset, and her role in the family's legacy. And, of course, I’ll tackle one of the most scandalous rumors of all—did Edward Seymour’s first wife really have an affair with his father? Tune in as I answer listener questions and uncover the truth behind the Seymours’ rise, power, and intrigue in Tudor England!
