Trashy Divorces

In this episode, we explore the history of Notley Abbey, a place with 1,000 years of history, in addition to being the martial home of Vivien Leigh and Laurence Olivier. All kinds of spiderwebs are hidden within the walls of the place.

Also included, lots of silliness from the morning coffee and visits from some of our favorite kings and Tudor friends, and a few new characters too.

Margaret Mitchell’s 1936 novel Gone with the Wind was an enormous success, and of course Hollywood came calling to make its own film version. David O. Selznick needed a certain kind of actress to pull off the role of anti-hero Scarlett O’Hara, and the job was not easy. In this episode, we get into it all – why David needs a success, all the actresses that were hopefuls, and the ultimate casting of Vivien Leigh in the role.

The tennis world's longtime golden couple made a shock announcement a few weeks back, telling the public that they're divorcing. Elina Svitolina, Ukraine's top tennis star, and French sensation Gaël Monfils, both admired and beloved around the world, married five years ago, and to say a lot has happened in that time is an understatement.

In this crossover arc, we explore the fact and the fiction about The Shooting of the Century. It is October 30, 1955 that William Woodward, Jr. was shot to death by his wife Ann. Dunne wrote 1985’s The Two Mrs. Grenvilles as a thinly veiled fictional account of the whole sordid tale, which landed right in the sweet spot of his interest in high society’s perfidy.

The Grimaldi family was considered scandalous enough in Queen Victoria’s time that she forbade any of her close relatives to marry into it, leading Prince Albert I of Monaco to marry an American heiress in 1889 – a precedent that would matter decades later when Prince Rainier III, urged on by none other than shipping tycoon Aristotle Onassis, began interviewing Hollywood A-listers for a very special role: Princess of Monaco.

The House of Grimaldi has ruled the tiny principality of Monaco since January 8, 1297, when Francois “The Spiteful” Grimaldi disguised himself as a monk and knocked on his uncle’s castle door, launching a coup. In the violence that followed, according to legend, a woman – possibly a lover of Francois, possibly a witch he had wronged (can’t it be both?) – issued a curse that has resonated across the centuries: “Never will a Grimaldi find true happiness in marriage.”
