Trashy Divorces

We’re pulling some of our favorite stories out of the Patreon vault this week. First up, Stacie has the remarkable life and delicious sex scandal of Annabelle Battistella, better known as Fanne Foxe, The Argentine Firecracker, and the Tidal Basin Bombshell, whose mid-70s love affair brought down a powerful congressman. Then, Alicia follows up on some Hank 8 trash by recounting the era known as The Court of Two Queens.

This week on Trashy Royals, we hop on our broomsticks and fly back to the heady days when men were men and a mildly inconvenient storm at sea could prompt a monarch to burn a bunch of his subjects at the stake! That's right: It's King James VI (of Scotland) and James I (of England and Ireland) time! This guy was obsessed with witchcraft and witches, sending a sickening number of innocents to be burned at the stake or hanged from the gallows, usually for the simple crime of being a woman.

Stacie gets nostalgic for the '90s with a real ex-file, the marriage and divorce of actors Tea Leoni and David Duchovny. Then Alicia has the seven husbands and deeply sad life of the mid-20th century's "Poor Little Rich Girl," Barbara Hutton.

There are fascinating through lines that draw House Windsor together in unexpected, and even (to our boring middle class values) unseemly, ways. In today's foray into Trashy Royals, Alicia introduces us to Prince of Wales "Dirty" Bertie, the future Edward VII, and one of his longtime mistresses, Alice "Freddie" Keppel.

And then we meet again a young Prince Charles, the longest serving Prince of Wales, and learn how the pattern established by his great-great-grandfather led to a wild love triangle, an awful lot of heartache, and eventually, an unexpected marriage.

Welcome to our new season 10 mid-week drops, Trashy Royals! Today, Alicia has the tale of a possibly cursed pearl, La Peregrina, which was the largest pearl ever found when it was pulled from Panamanian waters. It would spend centuries bothering Europe's first families before an English Duke gave it to Sotheby's for auction in 1969, and the legend of La Peregrina gained a brand new chapter with a different kind of royalty.
